49. If bond energy of  C C, C-H, O=O, C=O & O-H bond is 800, 410, 500, 700 & 430 kJ / mol respectively, then calorific value (kJ/gm) of ethyne is 

(1) 25.28
(2) 30.38
(3) 790
(4) 303 

Dear Student,


2HCCH + 5O2  4CO2 +2H2OH=[(reactant bond energies)-(product bond energies)]       =[(4BEC-H+2BECC + 5BEO=O) - (8BEC=O + 4BEO-H)]       =[(4×410+2×800+5×500) -(8×700+4×430)]       =[5740-7320]       =-1580 kJ/molThis means 2 mol of ethyne gives 1580 kJ of heatand 2 mol=26×2= 52 g of ethyneSo, 52 g of ethyne gives 1580 kJ of heatHence, 1 g of ethyne gives 158052=30.38 kJ/gThe correct answer is (2)
