Solution
The correct option is A5.88KJ Oxalic acid =C2H2O4 2H+ neutralise →−106.7kg/mole for H2C2O4→2H+→−106.7kJ Convert to Kcal =−106.7×0.239kcal 12H2C2O4+NaOH→12NO2C2O4+H2O;△H=−53.35kJ or 12H2C2O4+OH−→12C2O2−4+H2O△H=−53.35kJ....(i) H++OH−→H2O△H=57.3kJ....(ii) Subtracting eq (ii) from (i) 12H2C2O4→12C2O2−4+H+ △H=−3.95 H2C2O4→C2O2−4+2H+ △H=2×3.95=7.9kJ.
