Solution

The correct option is E 34 kJ mol1
Given reaction,

Fe2O3(s)+3H2(g)3H2O(l)+2Fe(s)

and Hof(H2O)=286.00kJ/mol

Hof(Fe2O3)=824kJ/mol

Therefore, HR (Heat of reaction) =Hof (products) Hof (reactants)

HR=(3×286)(824)

(Hof for H2 and Fe=0)

HR=858+824

HR=34kJ/mol

Hence, the correct option is E
