Solution
The correct option is B−854.4kJ
Solution:- (A) −854.4kJ
Given:-
S+O2⟶SO2ΔH=−398.2kJ.....(1)
SO2+12O2⟶SO3ΔH=−98.7kJ.....(2)
SO3+H2O⟶H2SO4ΔH=−130.2kJ.....(3)
H2+12O2⟶H2OΔH=−227.3kJ.....(4)
Adding eqn(1),(2),(3)&(4), we have
H2+S+2O2⟶H2SO4ΔH=−854.4kJ
Hence the enthalpy of formation of sulphuric acid is −854.4kJ.
