2CO(g) + O2(g) → 2CO2(g)
Given that ΔH[CO]is -110.4 kJmol-1 and ΔH[CO2] is -393.0 kJmol-1, the energy change for the reaction above is

A.

-503.7 kJ

B.

-282.6 kJ

C.

+282.6 kJ

D.

+503.7 kJ

Correct answer is B

Energy change (ΔH) = 2ΔHCO2 - (2ΔHCO + ΔHO)
= 7x - 393 - (7 * 110.4 + 0)
= -393 + 110.4 = -282.6 kJ

The mass of silver deposited when a current of 10a is passed through a solution of silver salt for 4830s is
[Ag = 108, F = 96500 c mol-1]

A.

108.0g

B.

54.0g

C.

27.0g

D.

13.5gq

Correct answer is B

Ag + ie → Ag+
If w 96500 C deposit 108g of silver
∴ 10 * 4830 will deposit (10 * 4830 * 108)/96500
= 5216400/96500 = 54.06g
