Solution

The correct option is B -121 kJ/mole
The required reaction is
C6H10+H2CyclohexeneC6H12Cyclohexene, H1=? ...(1)
Let us write the given facts
H2+12O2H2O
H2=241kJ/mol ...(2)
C6H10+172O26CO2+5H2O,
H3=300kJ/mole ...(3)
C6H12+9O26CO2+6H2O,
H4=3920kl/mole ...(4)
The-required-reaction (1) can be obtained by adding equations (2) and (3), and subtracting (4) from the sum of (2) and (3).
C6H10+H2C6H12
H1=(H2+H3)H4
=[241+(3800)](3920)
=(2413800)(3920)
=4041+3920=121kJ/mole
