Reaction equations contains symbols which show the physical state of the reactants and products.
<h3>What is a chemical equation:</h3>
A chemical equation is an expression that shows the interaction of reactants to yield products. Usually, symbols such as (s), (l), (g), and (aq) are used to show the state of the reactants and products.
The following are the respective meanings of these symbols;
- (s) - solid
- (l) - Liquid
- (g) - gas
- (aq) - dissolved in water

Turning things to gram so need to convert to the metric system
Enthalpy of formation is calculated by subtracting the total enthalpy of formation of the reactants from those of the products. This is called the HESS' LAW.
ΔHrxn = ΔH(products) - ΔH(reactants)
Since the enthalpies are not listed in this item, from reliable sources, the obtained enthalpies of formation are written below.
ΔH(C2H5OH) = -276 kJ/mol
ΔH(O2) = 0 (because O2 is a pure substance)
ΔH(CO2) = -393.5 kJ/mol
ΔH(H2O) = -285.5 kJ/mol
Using the equation above,
ΔHrxn = (2)(-393.5 kJ/mol) + (3)(-285.5 kJ/mol) - (-276 kJ/mol)
ΔHrxn = -1367.5 kJ/mol
<em>Answer: -1367.5 kJ/mol</em>
