The correct option is
D -266 kJ mol
−1The following information are given:
(1) CH3OH(l) ⟶ CH3OH(g); H1= 38kJ/mol
(2) 1/2H2(g) ⟶ H(g); H2= 218 kJ/mol
(3) C(s) ⟶ C(g); H3= 715 kJ/mol
(4) 1/2O2(g) ⟶ O(g); H4= 249 kJ/mol
(5) CH(g) ⟶ C(g) + H(g); H5= 415kJ/mol
(6) CO(g) ⟶ C(g) + O(g) ;H6 = 356 kJ/mol
(7) OH(g) ⟶ O(g) + H(g); H7 = 463 kJ/mol
(8) The enthalpy of the reaction CH3OH(g) ⟶ 4H(g) + C(g) + O(g) can be reconstituted as H8= 3×H5 + H6 + H7 = (3×415 + 356 + 463) = 2064 kJ/mol
(9) The formation of liquid methyl alcohol is represented as
C(s) + 2H2(g) + 1/2O2(g) ⟶ CH3OH(l)
and H9 can be calculated form the above and enthalpies values as:
H9 = H3 + 4×H2 + H4 -H8 - H1
H9= ( 715 + 4×218 + 249 - 2064 - 38) kJ/mol
H9 = -266 kJ/mol
Hence, the correct option is D
