Hydrogen and its compoundHard

Question

The enthalpy of combustion at 25oC of H2, cyclohexane and cyclohexene are - 241, - 3920 and - 3800 kJ/mol respectively. The heat of hydrogenation of cyclohexene is?

Options

A.-121 kJ/mol
B.+ 121 kJ/mol
C.-242 kJ/mol
D.+ 242 kJ/mol

Solution

(i) H(g) + O2(g) → H2O(l)   ᐃH = - 241 kJ
(ii) C6H10 + O2(g)  →  6CO2(g) + 5H2O(l)   ᐃH =- 3800 kJ
(iii) C6H12 + 9O2(g) → 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l)   ᐃH = - 3920 kJ
(i) + (ii) - (iii) give
ᐃH = - 241 - 3800 (- 3920) = - 121 kJ
