Solution

The correct option is C 44.1 kJ mol1
Given:
(a) H2(g)+12O2(g)H2O(l);ΔH=285.9kJ/mol
H2O(l)H2(g)+12O2(g);ΔH=285.9kJ/mol.....(1)
(b) H2(g)+12O2(g)H2O(g);ΔH=241.8kJ/mol.....(2)
Adding eqn(1)&(2), we have
H2O(l)+H2(g)+12O2(g)H2(g)+12O2(g)+H2O(g);ΔH=[285.9+(241.8)]kJ/mol
H2O(l)H2O(g);ΔH=44.1kJ/mol
Hence the molar enthalpy of vapourisation of water is 44.1kJ/mol.
