GIVEN :
C(graphite) + O₂(g) ➝ CO₂(g) ∆ᵣH° = -393.51 kJ/mol
H₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ➝ H₂O(l) ∆ᵣH° = -285.8 kJ/mol
CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) ➝ CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) ∆ᵣH° = +890.3 kJ/mol
C(graphite) + 2H₂(g) ➝ CH₄(g) ∆ᵣH° = ?
C(graphite) + O₂(g) ➝ CO₂(g) ∆ᵣH° = -393.51 kJ/mol .........1
H₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ➝ H₂O(l) ∆ᵣH° = -285.8 kJ/mol. .........2
CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) ➝ CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) ∆ᵣH° = +890.3 kJ/mol. ..........3
Multiply equation 2 by 2,
2× [H₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ➝ H₂O(l)] ∆ᵣH° = 2 ×(-285.8 kJ/mol)
2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ➝ 2H₂O(l) ∆ᵣH° = -517.6 kJ/mol. ......... equation 4
Now add equation 1,2 and 4
C(graphite) + O₂(g) ➝ CO₂(g) ∆ᵣH° = -393.51 kJ/mol
CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) ➝ CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) ∆ᵣH° = +890.3 kJ/mol
2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ➝ 2H₂O(l) ∆ᵣH° = -517.6 kJ/mol.

C(graphite) + 2O₂(g) + CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) + 2H₂(g) ➝ CO₂(g) + CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) ∆ᵣH° = (-393.51 kJ/mol + 890.3 kJ/mol - 517.6 kJ/mol)
➝ C(graphite) + 2H₂(g) ➝ CH₄(g) ∆ᵣH° = -20.81 kJ/mol
Answer:
−20.81kJ/mol is the correct answer.
