Answer to Question #92428 in Chemistry for Tj

Question

Using standard enthalpies of formation, determine the ΔHreaction for the following equations:

2 CH3OH(l) + 3 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(g)

Standard Enthalpies of Formation

Compound ΔHf (kJ/mol)
CO(g) -110.5
CO2(g) -393.5
CH3OH(l) -238.4
H2O(g) -241.8

Answer 1

∆H_reaction= -1277.4 kJ mol^-1
