Answer #1

delta(H) of reaction = delta(H f)product - delta(H f)reactant

delta(H f) of O2(g) = 0

-4943.6 = 8*(-393.5) + 8*(-285.8) - 5*0 - 2*x

-4943.6 = -3148 - 2286.4 -2*x

2*x = 4943.6  -3148 - 2286.4

2*x = 4943.6 - 5434.4

2*x = -490.8

x = -245.4 KJ/mol

standard enthalpy of formation of CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CHO = -245.4 KJ/mol
