Chemical Thermodynamics Question 457

Question: $ 2C+O_2\to 2CO;\Delta H=-220,kJ $ Which of the following statement is correct for this reaction

Options:

A) Heat of combustion of carbon is 110 kJ

B) Reaction is exothermic

C) Reaction needs no initiation

D) All of these are correct

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  • $ 2C+O_2\to 2CO $ ; $ \Delta H=-220,KJ $

This reaction does not represent complete combustion of carbon, hence heat of combustion of carbon will not be equal to $ 110,kJ $ . The negative sign of $ \Delta H $ indicates that this reaction is exothermic. Also, despite being spontaneous reaction, it requires initiation.
