Given:
$(A) \ 2 \ CO_{(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow 2 \ CO_{2(g)} \quad \Delta H_1^\theta = -x \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
$(B) \ C \ (\text{graphite}) + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{2(g)} \quad \Delta H_2^\theta = -y \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
The $\Delta H^\theta$ for the reaction $C \ (\text{graphite}) + \frac{1}{2} O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{(g)}$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{x-2y}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{x+2y}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{2x-y}{2}$
  • D
    $2y-x$
