    Right! The question! That's what I missed :) I was actually looking at the answer only because of the example in the textbook, giving it other way around, so...anyway, it makes sense that gaseous state standard bond enthalpies should be used...

    Hi Demet, I guess it is all to do with answering the question. The question starts, "Use the bond enthalpies and average bond enthalpies...." rather than "Use the enthalpies of formation....". If you just use enthalpies of formation all you...

    Hi, Slide 14 Q2 ; why don't we use formation enthalpies of CO, O2 and CO2 for delta H1 and H2? Am I missing something?Thanks!
  • Thank you Alastair. The elemental analysis had been misplaced in the question. It should be OK now.
