Three thermochemical equations are given below
(i) C(graphite) + O2(g) $$ \to $$ CO2(g); $$\Delta $$rHo = x kJ mol$$-$$1 (ii) C(graphite) + $${1 \over 2}$$O2(g) $$ \to $$ CO(g); $$\Delta $$rHo = y kJ mol$$-$$1 (iii) CO(g) + $${1 \over 2}$$O2(g) $$ \to $$ CO2(g); $$\Delta $$rHo = z kJ mol$$-$$1 Based on the above equations, find out which of the relationship given below is correct.
A
z = x + y
B
x = y + z
C
y = 2z $$-$$ x
D
x = y $$-$$ z
Explanation

MCQ (Single Correct Answer)
When 5 litres of a gas mixture of methane and propane is perfectly combusted at 0oC and 1 atmosphere, 16 litres of oxygen at the same temperature and pressure is consumed, The amount of heat released from this combustion in kJ ($$\Delta $$Hcomb. (CH4) = 890 kJ mol$$-$$1, $$\Delta $$Hcomb. (C3H8) = 2220 kJ mol$$-$$1) is
