Calculate the change in enthalpy (ΔH) for the combustion of methane gas (CH4) at 25°C and constant pressure of 1 atm. The equation for the combustion of methane is:CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l) Given the standard enthalpies of formation at 25°C are:ΔHf[CH4 (g)] = -74.87 kJ/mol ΔHf[CO2 (g)] = -393.5 kJ/mol ΔHf[H2O (l)] = -285.8 kJ/mol Assume that water is in its liquid phase at the end of the reaction.
