11. If x gm of steam at 100°C is mixed with 5x gm of ice at 0°C, calculate the final temperature of resulting mixture.
The heat of vapourisation and fusion are 540 cal gm–1 and 80 cal gm–1 respectively.
Sol. x × 540 + x × (100 – T) = 5x × 80 + 5x (T – 0)

+ 49 kJ mol–1 respectively. The standard enthalpy of hydrogenation of cyclohexene (l) at 25°C is –119 kJ mol–1.
Use these data to estimate the magnitude of resonance energy of benzene.
Sol. The reactions are

∵ After hydrogenation,

3 double bonds are breaking

and for 1 bond, H = –119 kJ/mol

 for 3 bonds, H = –119 × 3 = –357 kJ/mol

∵ Total energy = – 156 – 49 = –205 kJ/mol.

 Resonance energy = –357 – (–205)

= –152 kJ/mol
