Hey buddy,

● Answer- 9 g

● Explainaton-
# Given-
∆Hf = -260 kj/mol
∆H = 130 kj/mol

# Solution-
Heat of formation of water is -260 kj/mol thus it'll require 260 kj/mol to devompose.

No of molez = sample weight / molecular weight
n = x/18

Total heat required = No of moles × Heat of decomposition
130 = n × 260
n = 0.5

Putting values,
0.5 = x / 18
x = 9 g.

130 kj of heat will devompose 9 g of water.

Hope this is useful...
