Question 1

The standard enthalpy of formation for H₂O(l) is -285.8 kJ/mol. Calculate the enthalpy for the reaction 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(l).

💡 Hint: Use stoichiometric coefficients for the formation.

Question 2

Given that the ΔH_f° for C(graphite) is 0 kJ/mol and for O₂ is also 0 kJ/mol, if ΔH_f° for CO₂ is -393.5 kJ/mol, determine the enthalpy change for a reaction producing CO₂ from its elements.

💡 Hint: Recap what ΔH_f° stands for in terms of formation from elements.
