The enthalpy change for the oxidation of naphthalene, C 10 H 8 , is measured by calorimetry.

Question:

The enthalpy change for the oxidation of naphthalene, C10H8, is measured by calorimetry.C10H8(s) + 12 O(g)  10 CO(g) + 4HO(l) A,H=-5156.1 kJ/mol-rxn

Use this value, along with the standard enthalpies of formation of CO2(g) and H2O(ℓ), to calculate the enthalpy of formation of naphthalene, in kJ/mol.
