Hello!
In this case, since the standard enthalpy change for a chemical reaction is stood for the enthalpy of reaction, for the given reaction:
We set up the enthalpy of reaction considering the enthalpy of formation of each species in the reaction at the specified phase and the stoichiometric coefficient:
In such a way, by using the NIST database, we find that:
Thus, we plug in the enthalpies of formation to obtain:
