Calculate the enthalpy of formationof acetic acid if the enthalpy of combustionto CO_(2)(g) and H_(2)O(l) is - 867.0 kJ mol^(-1) and enthalpies of formation of CO_(2)(g) and H_(2)O(l)are respectively -393.5 and -285.9 kJ mol^(-1)

Calculate the enthalpy of formationof acetic acid if the enthalpy of c

1.	Calculate the enthalpy of formationof acetic acid if the enthalpy of combustionto CO_(2)(g) and H_(2)O(l) is - 867.0 kJ mol^(-1) and enthalpies of formation of CO_(2)(g) and H_(2)O(l)are respectively -393.5 and -285.9 kJ mol^(-1)
Answer» SOLUTION :AIM `: 2C(s) + 2H_(2) (g) + O_(2)(g)rarrCH_(3)COOH,DeltaH = ?`
