Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 48

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \Delta \mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{f}}\left[\mathrm{CO}_2(\mathrm{~g})\right]=-393.5 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mole} \\ & \Delta \mathrm{H}_{\mathrm{f}}\left[\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(\ell)\right]=-286.0 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mole} \\ & \Delta…
