Nitric oxide (NO) can be formed from nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen in two steps. In the first step, nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia:

N2(g) + 3H2(g) →2NH3(g)
ΔH=−92.kJ
In the second step, ammonia and oxygen react to form nitric oxide and water:
4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) → 4NO(g) +6H2O(g)
ΔH=−905.kJ
Calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of nitric oxide from nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen from these reactions.

ΔH = - 272.255 kJ      

Explanation:

Given that

In first step ,reaction is given as

N2(g) + 3H2(g) →2NH3(g)                  ΔH=−92 kJ

In second step ,reaction is given as

4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) → 4NO(g) +6H2O(g)             ΔH=−905 kJ

Now multiple by in the first equation ,we get

2N2(g) + 6H2(g) →4NH3(g)                  ΔH=− 184 kJ

Now by adding the above equation

2N2(g) + 6H2(g) →4NH3(g)                  ΔH=− 184 kJ

4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) → 4NO(g) +6H2O(g)             ΔH=−905 kJ

2 N2+6 H2 + 5 O2 → 4 NO + 6 H2O       ΔH=  - 1089 k J

For one mole of nitric oxide (NO)

ΔH = - 272.255 kJ

Therefore change in the enthalpy will be - 272.255 kJ.

The net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of nitric oxide from nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen is -272.2 kJ

Explanation:

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The given chemical reactions  are,

    (1)

    (2)

Now we have to determine the value of for the following reaction i.e,

According to the Hess’s law, if we multiply the reaction (1) by 1/2, (2) by 1/4 and then add (1) and (2)

So, the value for the reaction will be:

Hence the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of nitric oxide from nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen is -272.2 kJ

i believe you are right for all except the 3rd ( look at sqdancefan his answer is much better)
