    If the heat of formation of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] is\[-393kJ\], the amount of heat evolved in the formation of \[0.176\text{ }kg\] of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] is

    A)  \[-1357.9\text{ }kJ\]     

    B)  \[-1275.9kJ\]

    C)  \[-1572kJ\]                        

    D)  \[+1572kJ\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Heat of formation is the amount of heat absorbed or evolved when 1 mole of substance is formed from its elements. Given, mass of \[C{{O}_{2}}=0.176\text{ }kg=176\text{ }g\] Molecular weight of \[C{{O}_{3}}=1mole\] of \[C{{O}_{2}}=44g\]                 \[\underset{12g}{\mathop{C}}\,+\underset{2\times 16g}{\mathop{{{O}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{44g}{\mathop{C{{O}_{2}}}}\,-393kJ\] \[\therefore \]Heat evolved when 44 g of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] is produced \[=-393\text{ }kJ\] \[\therefore \] Heat evolved when 176 g of \[C{{O}_{2}}\] is produced                                 \[=-\frac{393}{44}\times 176\]                                 \[=-1572kJ\]
