Please explain the answer.

Which statement about this reaction is correct?

2Fe(s)+3CO2(g)--->Fe2O3(s)+3CO(g) delta H = 26.6 kJ

A. 26.6 kJ of energy are released for every mole of Fe reacted

B. 26.6 kJ of energy are absorbed for every mole of Fe reacted

C. 53.2 kJ of energy are released for every mole of Fe reacted

D. 13.3 kJ of energy are absorbed for every mole of Fe reacted

2 answers

This reaction absorbs 26.6 kJ for every 2 mols Fe.
So A and C can't be right because they
RELEASE energy. That makes it either B or D.
2 fe (s) +3 Co2 (g) fe2 03(s) +3 co(g) Delta H = + 26.6 kj
