Hey there!
The answer as well as the explanation is in the image attached. Let me know if there's anything you're unable to see.
Hope this helps!
The standard formation equation for glucose C6H12O6(s) that corresponds to the standard enthalpy of formation or enthalpy change ΔH°f = -1273.3 kJ/mol is
C(s) + H2(g) + O2(g) → C6H12O6(s)
and the balanced chemical equation is
6C(s) + 6H2(g) + 3O2(g) → C6H12O6(s)
Using the equation for the standard enthalpy change of formation
ΔHoreaction = ∑ΔHof(products)−∑ΔHof(Reactants)
ΔHoreaction = ΔHfo[C6H12O6(s)] - {ΔHfo[C(s, graphite) + ΔHfo[H2(g)] + ΔHfo[O2(g)]}
C(s), H2(g), and O2(g) each have a standard enthalpy of formation equal to 0 since they are in their most stable forms:
ΔHoreaction = [1*-1273.3] - [(6*0) + (6*0) + (3*0)]
= -1273.3 - (0 + 0 + 0)
= -1273.3
What are " of the following"?
