OnFe2O3(s)+32C(s)→32CO2(g)+2Fe(s);ΔH°=+234.1kJ
C(s)+O2(g)→CO2(g);ΔH°=-393.5kJ
Use these equations andΔH°values to calculateΔH°for this reaction
4Fe(s)+3O2(g)→2Fe2O3(s)

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

2Fe(s)+32CO2(g)→Fe2O3(s)+32C(s);ΔH°=-234.1kJ…(i)
C(s)+O2(g)→CO2(g)(ΔH°=-393.5kJ)…(ii)
Multiplying eq. (i) by 2 and eq. (ii) by 3 and on adding both equations, we get
4Fe(s)+3O2(g)→2Fe2O3(s);ΔH°=(-234.1×2)+(-3×393.5)
=-1648.7kJ
