Calculate the standard enthalpy change ( in kJ `mol^(-1))` for the reaction , `H_(2)(g) + O_(2)(g) rarrH_(2)O_(2)(g)`, given that bond enthalpy of `H-H,O = O, O-H` and `O-O` ( in `kJ mol^(-1))` are respectively 438, 498,464 and 138A. `-1 30`B. `065`C. `+130`D. `- 334`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`H -H(g)+O=O(g) rarr H-O-O-H(g)`
`Delta_(r)H= BE(H-H) + BE(O=O)-[2BE(O-H) +BE(O-H)]`
`=438 +498 - [2 xx 464 +138 ]kJ mol^(-1)`
`= 936- ( 928+ 138 )= - 130 kJ mol^(-1)`
