Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction: $2C_2H_6(g) + 7O_2(g) \rightarrow 4CO_2(g) + 6H_2O(l)$. Given: $\Delta_f H^{\circ}(C_2H_6) = -85 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$, $\Delta_f H^{\circ}(CO_2) = -390 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$, $\Delta_f H^{\circ}(H_2O) = -285 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$. (in $\text{ kJ}$)

Hess's law of constant heat summation is based on

Which of the following equations represents the standard enthalpy of formation of $CH_4$?

Explain the standard enthalpy of formation.

The heat of combustion of ethanol into carbon dioxide and water is $-327 \ kcal$ at constant pressure. The heat evolved (in $cal$) at constant volume and $27^{\circ} C$ (assuming all gases behave ideally) is $\left( R = 2 \ cal \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1} \right)$

The formation enthalpies,$\Delta H_{f}^{\ominus}$ for $H_{(g)}$ and $O_{(g)}$ are $220.0$ and $250.0 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,respectively,at $298.15 \ K$,and $\Delta H_{f}^{\ominus}$ for $H_2O_{(g)}$ is $-242.0 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ at the same temperature. The average bond enthalpy of the $O-H$ bond in water at $298.15 \ K$ is $.......... \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ (nearest integer).
