Three thermochemical equations are given below(1)C_(("graphite"))+O_(2)(g)rarrCO_(2)(g), Delta_(r) H^(@)=xkJ mol^(-1)(2)C_("graphite")+1//2O_(2)(g)rarrCO(g), Delta_(r)H^(@)=y kJ mol^(-1)(3)CO(g)+1//2O_(2)(g)rarrCO_(2)(g), Delta_(r)H^(@)=zkJ mol^(-1) Based on the above equations, find out which of the relationship given below is correct

Answer»

Z=X+y
x=y+z
y=2z-x
x=y-z

Solution :Applying Hess's law
`C_((g))+O_(2)rarrCO_(2(g))"x kJ mol"^(-1)"....(i)"`
`{:(ul(C_((s))+(1)/(2)O_(2)rarrCO_((g))"y kJ mol"^(-1))"...(ii)"),(O_(2)-(1)/(2)O_(2(g))rarrCO_(2(g))-CO_((g))z kJ mol^(-1)"....(III)"):}`
On substracting eq. (i) and (ii) we get
`CO_((g))+(1)/(2)O_(2(g))rarrCO_(2(g)) thereforex-y=zimpliesx=y+z`
