Predict deltarH for this reaction:

C2H4(g) + H2O(l) -> C2H5OH(l)

using the enthalpy changes of the following reactions:

C2H4(g) + 3O2(g) -> 2CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l); deltarH = -1411.1 kJ/mol-rxn

C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) -> 2CO2 + 3 H2O(l); deltarH = -1367.5 kJ/mol-rxn

Report your answer with units of kJ/mol-rxn
If you number is negative, include the negative symbol. If your number is positive, do not include the positive symbol.
