Enthalpy of Phase transition

Question

Enthalpy of combustion of diamond is 395kJ/mole and Enthalpy of combustion of graphite is 393kJ/mole. Enthalpy change when one mole of diamond converts to one mole of graphite is

Easy

Solution

$Combustion is always exothermic, ∆ H = - ve; C (diamond) + O_{2} (g) \to {CO}_{2} (g); ∆ H = - 395 kJ - I; C (graphite) + O_{2} (g) \to {CO}_{2} (g); ∆ H = - 393 kJ - II; Eq I - Eq II C (diamond) \to C (graphite); ∆ H = - 2 kJ / mole$
