Still confusedHINT: remember that the enthalpy of formation of elements in their standard state is zero.
Take the third chemical equation, and write it in reverse.
Multiply the first equation times two.
Multiply the second equation times three.
What do you notice? Can you figure it out?
Is the answer -3004, not sure if its right or wrong. Could you pls provide me with the correct answer if its wrongHINT:
To derive the enthalpy of formation of C2H5OH (ethanol) we need a chemical equation that has the elements carbon, oxygen and hydrogen on the left-hand side in their standard states, and C2H5OH on the right-hand side. This chemical equation would have zero enthalpy of formation on the left-hand side (because they are all elements) and ethanol on the right-hand side.
