The amount of heat required to decompose a compound into its elements is __________ the heat of formation of that compound from its elements.

A Less than
B More than
C Same as
D Not related to

Correct Answer: Same as

Lavoisier and laplace law : the law states that the quantity of heat which must be supplied to decompose a compound in to its elemental form is equal to the amount of heat evolved during the formation compound from its element assuming no losses involved during both process.
