Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

Given the reaction C(graphite, s) + 2 S(l) → CS₂(l) with ∆rH⁰ = +128.5 kJ mol⁻¹, calculate the enthalpy change if 2 moles of carbon disulfide (CS₂) are formed.

A

+257.0 kJ

B

+128.5 kJ

C

-257.0 kJ

D

-128.5 kJ

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The enthalpy change given is for the formation of 1 mole of CS₂. For 2 moles, the enthalpy change will be 2 × 128.5 kJ mol⁻¹ = +257.0 kJ.
