Solution

The correct option is A 1382 kJ / K /mol
3C(graphite)+4H2(g)C3H8(g)

ΔS0f=S0(C3H8)[3S0(C(graphite)+4S0(H2)]

ΔS0f=270.0J/K/mol[3(5.79J/K/mol)+4(1309.68J/K/mol)]=4986J/K/mol
ΔG0f=ΔH0fTΔS0f

ΔG0f=103850J/mol298×(4986J/K/mol)

ΔG0f=1382005J/K/mol

ΔG0f=1382kJ/K/mol

Hence, the correct option is A
