Solution

The correct option is B 393.7kJ
Given reactions are,
C(graphite)+12O2CO ΔH=110.5KJ
CO+12O2CO2 ΔH=283.2KJ
Since on adding both the above reaction we will get a final reaction
C(graphite)+O2CO2
which is the same equation whose heat of reaction is being asked.
Since, on adding two reactions the heat of reactions gets added.
Hence, the heat of reaction for the final reaction will be,
ΔH=ΔH1+ΔH2=110.5283.2=393.7KJ
Hence, answer is option B.
