The standard enthalpy of combustion at 25^(@)C of hydrogen, cyclohexene (C_(6)H_(10)) and cyclohexane (C_(6)H_(12)) are -241, -3800 and -3920 kJ/ "mole" respectively. Calculate the heat of hydrogenation of cyclohexene.

Answer»

Solution :Given that,
(i) `H_(2)(g)+(1)/(2)O_(2)(g) to H_(2)O(l),DELTAH=-241 "kJ"`
(ii) `C_(6)H_(10)(g)+8(1)/(2)O_(2)(g) to 6CO_(2)(g)+5H_(2)O(l),DeltaH=-3800 "kJ"`
(iii) `C_(6)H_(12)(g)+9O_(2)(g) to 6CO_(2)(g)+6H_(2)O(l),DeltaH=-3920"kJ"`
We have to calculate `DeltaH` of the reaction,
`C_(6)H_(10)(g)+H_(2)(g) to C_(6)H_(12)(g),DeltaH=?`
Applying the INSPECTION method, i.e.,
Eqn.(i)+Eqn.(ii)-Eqn.(iii), we get,
`H_(2)(g)+(1)/(2)O_(2)(g)+C_(6)H_(10)(g)+8(1)/(2)O_(2)(g)-C_(6)H_(12)(g)-9O_(2)(g) to H_(2)O(l)+6CO_(2)(g)+5H_(2)O(l)-6CO_(2)(g)-6H_(2)O(l),DeltaH=-241+(-3800)-(-3920)`
or `C_(6)H_(10)(g)+H_(2)(g) to C_(6)H_(12)(g),DeltaH=-121 "kJ"`
