Answer

(a) 55 kJ (b) 110 kJ (c) 27.5 kJ (d) 55 kJ

Work Step by Step

Based on the given data, we can write Heat $=\frac{-55\,kJ}{1\,mol\,A}=\frac{-55\times2\,kJ}{2\,mol\,A}=\frac{-55\,kJ}{2\,mol\,B}=\frac{-27.5\,kJ}{1\,mol\,B }$ Negative sign indicates that the heat is emitted. (a) When 1 mol A reacts completely, 55 kJ heat is emitted. (b) When 2 mol A reacts completely, 110 kJ heat is emitted. (c) When 1 mol B reacts completely, 27.5 kJ heat is emitted. (d) When 2 mol B reacts completely, 55 kJ heat is emitted.
