Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{x-2 y}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Target equation \(C \text { (graphite) }+\frac{1}{2} O _{2( g )} \rightarrow CO _{( g )} \ldots \text {.(i) } \Delta H\) \(C \left(\text { graphite) }+ O _{2( g )} \rightarrow CO _{2( g )} \text {.(ii) } \Delta H _1=- y\,kJ / mole \right.\)…
