JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2022 - 24th June Evening Shift - No. 4)

At 25$$^\circ$$C and 1 atm pressure, the enthalpies of combustion are as given below :

Substance $${H_2}$$ C (graphite) $${C_2}{H_6}(g)$$
$${{{\Delta _c}{H^\Theta }} \over {kJ\,mo{l^{ - 1}}}}$$ $$ - 286.0$$ $$ - 394.0$$ $$ - 1560.0$$

The enthalpy of formation of ethane is

+54.0 kJ mol$$-$$1
$$-$$68.0 kJ mol$$-$$1
$$-$$86.0 kJ mol$$-$$1
+97.0 kJ mol$$-$$1

Explanation

$$2 \mathrm{C}$$ (graphite) $$+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6}(\mathrm{~g})$$

$$ \Delta \mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{r}}=+1560+2(-394)+3(-286) $$

$$=-86.0 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} $$

Enthalpy of formation of C2H6(g) = –86.0 kJ mol–1
