Question

Type: Multiple Correct answers
The heat evolved in the combustion of benzene is given by
C​​​​​​6​​​​​H​6(l)+15/2O2(g)----------->3H2O(l)+6CO2(g)
∆H=-781.0kcal mol​​​​-1
​​​​​​
When 156 g of C6H​​​​6 is burnt in an open container the amount of heat energy released will be
a)150.2 kcal mol​​​​-1 b)1562.0 kcal mol​​​​-1
c)6528.2 kJ mol-1​​-1 d)2448.5 kJ mol​​​​-1

Solution

atomic weight of 1 mol of C6H6 = 78g..
Therefore COmbustion of 1 mol produces 781 kcal/mol of heat .

Given 156g => 2 mols of C6H6

Therefore combustion of 2 mols gives 781 x 2 = 1562 kcal/mol..Option (B)
