Solution

The correct option is D +6.2 kJ
As Given in above,Fe2O3(s)+3CO(g)2Fe(s)+3CO2(g); ΔH=26.8 kJ ...(i)

FeO(s)+CO(g)Fe(s)+CO2(s);ΔH=16.5 kJ ...(ii)

Fe2O3(s)+CO(g)2FeO(s)+CO2(g); ΔH=? ...(iii)

Eq. (iii) can be obtained as:

(i) -(ii) = -26.8 - 2(-16.5) = -26.8 + 33.0 = +6.2 kJ
the correct option is (d).
