MCQ
The heat of combustion of carbon is $-94\,  kcal$ at $ 1$ atm pressure. The intrinsic energy of $C{O_2}$ is....$kcal$
  • A
    $ + 94$
  • $ - \,94$
  • C
    $ + 47$
  • D
    $ - 47$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$ - \,94$
(b) ${C_{(S)}} + {O_2}_{(g)} \to C{O_2}_{(g)}$, $\Delta {n_g} = 1 - 1 = 0$
$\therefore \Delta E = \Delta H = - 94\,\,kcal$
$\Delta E = {E_{C{O_2}}} - ({E_C} + {E_{{O_2}}})$$ = {E_{C{O_2}}} - (0 + 0)$
or ${E_{C{O_2}}} = \Delta E = - 94\,\,kcal.$
