Question

The heat evolved in the combustion of benzene is given by
C6H6(l)+712O2(g)3H2O(l)+6CO2(g),ΔH=781.0Kcalmol1
When 156gofC6H6 is burnt in an open container, the amount of heat energy released will be (in kJ/mol)

Solution

As given,
C6H6(l)+712O2(g)3H2O(l)+6CO2(g),ΔH=781.0Kcalmol1
78 gm = 1 mol
156/ 78 = 2 mol
ΔH=781.0×2=1562Kcalmol1=6528.2kJmol1
(because 1 cal = 4.2 joule)
