Question

Using the three reactions below, determine change in enthalpy (kJ) for the combustion of ethane (C2H6).

 

2C2H6(g) + 7O2(g) ⟶⟶ 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(l)        Δ?ΔH = ?

 

2C(s) + 3H2(g) ⟶⟶ C2H6(g)     Δ?=−83.85??ΔH=−83.85kJ

H2(g) + 1/2 O2(g) ⟶⟶ H2O(l)    Δ?=−285.83??ΔH=−285.83kJ

C(s) + O2(g) ⟶⟶ CO2(g)     Δ?=−393.51??ΔH=−393.51kJ
