Q.

The heat of formation of liquid methyl alcohol in kilo joules per mole is found to be (260 + X) kJ/mol, using the following data. Heat of vaporization of liquid methyl alcohol = 38 kJ/mol. Heat of formation of gaseous atoms from the elements in their standard states : H:218 kJ/mol; C:715 kJ/mol; O:249 kJ/mol.  Average bond energies :

ECH=415kJ/mol

ECO=356kJ/mol
EOH=463kJ/mol

Here ‘X’ is :

C(s)+2H2(g)+12O2(g)CH3OH(l);      ΔH=?

ΔH = Bond energy data for formation + Bond energy data for dissociation + Energy released during liquefaction

=[3×eCH+eCO+eOH]+[Csg+2×eHH+12×eOO][CH3OHgl]

=[3×415+356+463]+[715+2×436+249]38=266kJmol1

(260 + 6X) kJ/mol=-266 kJ/mol
