Chemistry

From the following heats of combustion,

CH3OH(l) + 3/2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)       ΔHorxn=–726.4 kJ/mol

C(graphite) + O2(g) →CO2(g)                             ΔHorxn = –393.5 kJ/mol

H2(g) + ½O2(g) →H2O(l)                                                ΔHorxn = –285.8 kJ/mol

Calculate the enthalpy offormation of methanol (CH3OH) from its elements.

C(graphite) + 2H2(g) +½O2(g) → CH3OH(l)
