Solution

The correct option is A -42.1
The thermochemical reactions are as given below.
NH3(g)+aqNH3(aq),ΔH=8.4K.Cal.
HCl(g)+aqHCl(aq),ΔH=17.3K.Cal.
NH3(aq)+HCl(aq)NH4Cl(aq),ΔH=12.5K.Cal.
NH4Cl(s)+aqNH4Cl(aq),ΔH=+3.9K.Cal.
The reaction (4) is reversed and added to the reactions (1), (2) and (3) to obtain the reaction NH3(g)+HCl(g)NH4Cl(s).
Hence, the heat change of the reaction is 8.417.312.53.9=42.1K. Cal
