Question on: JAMB Chemistry - 2003

CO(g) + H2O(g) → CO2(g) + H2(g)

From the reaction above, calculate the standard enthalpies of formation of CO2(g), H2O(g) and CO(g) in kJ mol-1 are -394, -242, and -110 respectively.

A
-262 kJ mol-1
B
-42 kJ mol-1
C
+42 kJ mol-1
D
+262 kJ mol-1
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B

CO + H2O → CO2 + H2 DH = 394 kJ mol-1

-242 + 110 = -352 kJ mol-1

35 = -394 -(352)

= -394 + 352

= -42 kJ mol-1
