What is the enthalpy of reaction for C + O2 -> CO2, if the conversion of C is 50%, and heat of formation of C, O2, and CO2 are 0, 0 and 10 J.
(a) 5 J
(b) 10 J
(c) 15 J
(d) 20 J
I got this question in an internship interview.
My query is from Heat (Enthalpy) of Reaction topic in portion Application of Energy Balances in the Absence of Chemical Reactions and Energy Balances: How to Account for Chemical Reaction of Basic Chemical Engineering
