Enthalpy of `CH_(4)+(1)/(2)O_(2)rarrCH_(3)OH` is negative. If enthalpy of combustion of `CH_(4)` and `CH_(3)OH` are `x` and `y` respectively, then which relation is correct?A. `xgty`B. `xlty`C. `x=y`D. `xgey` |

Answer» Correct Answer - A `CH_(4)+O_(2)toCO_(2)+2H_(2)O`, `DeltaH_(1)=-xkJ……(i)` `CH_(3)OH+O_(2)+CO_(2)+2H_(2)O`, `DeltaH_(2)=-y kJ……..(ii)` Subtract `(ii)` from `(i)` We get `CH_(4)+(1)/(2)O_(2)toCH_(3)OH`, `DeltaH_(3)=-ve` or `-x-(-y)=-ve` or `y-x=-ve` Hence `x gt y` |
