enthalpy change

... kJ (per mol C) C2H4(g) + H2O(l) → C2H5OH (l) ΔH° = −44 kJ (per mol C2H4) What is ΔH° for the following reaction? All the answers below are for the combustion of one mole of C2H5OH. (1 mark) C2H5OH(l) + 3 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) + 3 H2O(l) Hey guys, again another question. I am trying to studying for my ...
