Hess law of constant summation
Question

1) CGraphite + O2(g) →CO2(g);ΔH = -94 K.Cals
2) CDiamond + O2(g) → CO2(g);ΔH = -94.5 K.Cals
From the above data the heat of transition of  Cdiamond → CGraphite

Easy
Solution

1) CGraphite + O2(g) →CO2(g);ΔH1 = -94 K.Cals
2) CDiamond + O2(g) → CO2(g);ΔH2 = -94.5 K.Cals

Substract equation (1) from eqation(2)

\begin{array}{l} \Delta {H_{transition}} = \Delta {H_2} - \Delta {H_1}\\ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \, - 94.5 - ( - 94)\\ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \, - 0.5K.cal = - 500cal \end{array}
