Pls help ASAP. Pls give proper units and significant digits to three. Pls circle the final answer as well. 

The standard heat of formation, AH, is defined as the
enthalpy change for the formation of one mole of
substance from its constituent elements in their
standard states. Thus, elements in their standard states
have AH = 0. Heat of formation values can be used
to calculate the enthalpy change of any reaction.
Consider, for example, the reaction
2NO(g) + O₂(g) = 2NO₂ (g)
with heat of formation values given by the following
table:
Substance
ΔΗ;
(kJ/mol)
NO(g)
90.2
O₂(g)
0
NO₂(g) 33.2
Then the standard heat of reaction for the overall
reaction is
AHxn AH (products)-
2(33.2)
=
−114 kJ
AH(reactants)
[2(90.2) +0]
