Ethanol Undergoes Combustion in Oxygen to Produce Carbon Dioxide Gas $\Delta$

Multiple Choice

Ethanol undergoes combustion in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide gas and liquid water. The standard heat of combustion of ethanol, C₂H₅OH(l) , is -1366.8 kJ/mol. Given that $\Delta$ H ^$\circ$ _f[CO₂(g) ] = -393.5 kJ/mol and $\Delta$ H ^$\circ$ _f[H₂O(l) ] = -285.8 kJ/mol, what is the standard enthalpy of formation of ethanol

A) -687.6 kJ/mol
B) -277.6 kJ/mol
C) 687.6 kJ/mol
D) 1,367 kJ/mol
E) 3,010 kJ/mol
