Solution

To calculate the heat of the reaction, we need to use the formula:

ΔH°rxn = Σ ΔH°f (products) - Σ ΔH°f (reactants)

For the products, we have 4 moles of CO2 and 2 moles of H2O. So, we multiply the ΔH°f of each by their respective moles and add them together:

(4 mol CO2 * -393.5 kJ/mol CO2) + (2 mol H2O * -241.8 kJ/mol H2O) = -1574 kJ + -483.6 kJ = -2057.6 kJ

For the reactants, we have 2 moles of C2H2 and 5 moles of O2. We do the same calculation:

(2 mol C2H2 * 226.7 kJ/mol C2H2) + (5 mol O2 * 0.0 kJ/mol O2) = 453.4 kJ + 0.0 kJ = 453.4 kJ

Now we subtract the sum of the heats of formation of the reactants from that of the products:

ΔH°rxn = -2057.6 kJ - 453.4 kJ = -2511 kJ

So, the heat of the reaction is -2511 kJ/mol. The correct answer is -2511 kJ/mol.
