    What will be the heat of formation of methane, if the heat of combustion of carbon is \['-x'\] kJ, heat of formation of water is \['-y'\] kJ and heat of combustion of methane is 'z' kJ ?

    A) \[(-x-y+z)\,kJ\]

    B)        \[(-z-x+2y)\,kJ\]

    C) \[(-x-2y-z)\,kJ\]

    D)        \[(-x-2y+z)\,kJ\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] From given data, we have \[C+{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{O}_{2}}-x\,kJ\]                                 ? (i) \[{{H}_{2}}+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{H}_{2}}O-y\,kJ\]             ? (ii) \[C{{H}_{4}}+2{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{O}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O+z\,kJ\]  ? (iii) The required equation is \[C+2{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{H}_{4}}+Q\] To get the required equation, operate \[(i)+2\times (ii)-(iii)\] Thus, we get \[C+2{{H}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{H}_{4}}+[(-x)+(-2y)-(-z)]\] Thus, heat of formation of methane is \[(-x-2y+z)\,kJ\]
