  1. A -1120
  2. B -968
  3. C -896
  4. D -560
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) -896

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{CH}_4+2 \mathrm{O}_2 \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_2+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\) \(10 \mathrm{~g} \Delta H=-560 \mathrm{~kJ}\) \((12+4=16) g=1 \mathrm{~mole}\) The heat of combustion of \(10 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{CH}_4=-560 \mathrm{~kJ}\) So, the heat of combustion of…
