`2C+O_(2)rarr2CO, Delta H= - 220 kJ` which of the following statements is correct for this reactionA. Heat of combustion of carbon is 110 kJB. Reaction is exothermicC. Reaction needs no initiationD. All of these are correct

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`2C+O_(2)rarr2CO, DeltaH=-220 KJ`
This reaction does not represent complete combustion of carbon, hence heat of combustion of carbon will not be equal to 110 kJ. The negative sign of `DeltaH` indicates that this reaction is exothermic. Also, despite being spontaneous reaction, it requires initiation.
