Q.

Calculate enthalpy change (in kJ) when 2 moles of liquid acetic acid undergoes dissociation into CH4(g) and
CO2(g) from the following data :ΔHvapCH3COOH(l)=50 kJ/mole 
Resonance energy of CH3COOH(g)=50 kJ/mole
Resonance energy of CO2(g)=25 kJ/mole
Bonding energy (kJ/mole):CH=400;CO=350:
O=O=500CC=350;OH=450;C=O=800;HH=400

Detailed Solution

In the reaction we have,
2CH3COOH(l)2CH4(g)+2CO2(g)ΔH=2[(50+50+350+350+450}{400+800+25)] =50 kJ
