Correct Option - 2

Detailed Solution:

% of C = $% o f C = \frac{W t o f C O_{2}}{W t o f c o m p .} * \frac{12}{44} * 100 = \frac{2.64}{1.8} * \frac{12}{44} * 100 = 40 %$

$% o f H = \frac{W t o f H_{2} O}{W t o f c o m p .} * \frac{2}{18} * 100 = \frac{1.08}{1.8} * \frac{2}{18} * 100 = 6.67 %$

% of O = 100 – (40 + 6.67) = 53.33%

Enthalpy of neutralisation of CH₃COOH by NaOH is – 50.6 kJ/mol and the heat of neutralisation of a strong acid with NaOH is – 55.9 kJ/mol. The value of ΔH for the ionisation of CH₃COOH is :

Alok Kumar Singh

CH₃COOH + NaOH → CH₃COONa + H₂O

ΔH = –50.6 kJ/mol

NaOH + SA [HCl] → NaCl + H₂O

ΔH = –55.9 kJ/mol
