Answer:
Correct Answer: 27. $(-372$ $ \mathrm{kcal} / \mathrm{mol})$
Solution:
- The process of photosynthesis in plants is primarily dependent on the presence of sunlight, and without it, the process cannot occur. $\Delta H =\Sigma \Delta H_f^{\circ} \text { (products) }-\Sigma \Delta H_f^{\circ} \text { (reactants) } $
$ =-2 \times 94.1-3 \times 68.3-(-21.1) $
$ =-372\ \mathrm{kcal/mol}$
