Question
**Problem Statement:**

Determine the value of ΔH° for the following reaction: 

\[ 2 \text{CO}(g) + \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow 2 \text{CO}_2(g) \]

**Data Provided:**

| Substance | ΔH°f (kJ/mol) |
|-----------|---------------|
| CO(g)     | -110.5        |
| CO2(g)    | -393.7        |

**Options:**

a) -283.2  
b) -504.2  
c) -566.4  
d) -1008.4  
e) Not enough information provided.  

**Explanation:**

To calculate the standard enthalpy change (ΔH°) for the reaction, use the formula:

\[ \Delta H^\circ = \sum \Delta H^\circ_f \text{ (products)} - \sum \Delta H^\circ_f \text{ (reactants)} \]

Calculate:

\[ \Delta H^\circ = [2 \times (-393.7)] - [2 \times (-110.5)] \]

\[ \Delta H^\circ = (-787.4) - (-221.0) \]

\[ \Delta H^\circ = -787.4 + 221.0 \]

\[ \Delta H^\circ = -566.4 \]

Thus, the correct option is c) -566.4.
