Options:
  • A $13.2 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$
  • B $17.2 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$
  • C $19.5 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$
  • D $20.0 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$

The correct answer is: $17.2 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$
$\begin{array}{l}
\Delta \mathrm{H}=\Delta \mathrm{E}+\Delta \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{g}} \mathrm{RT} \\
20=\Delta \mathrm{E}+8.314 \times 10^{-3} \times 333 \\
\Delta \mathrm{E}=17.2 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}
\end{array}$
