Chapter 9.6, Problem 9.42QAP

Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction

$F{e}_2{O}_3\left(s\right)+CO\left(g\right)\to 2FeO\left(s\right)+C{O}_2$ from the

following:

$F{e}_2{O}_3\left(s\right)+3CO\left(g\right)\to 2Fe\left(s\right)+3C{O}_2\left(g\right)\Delta H=-23.4kJ$

$FeO\left(s\right)+CO\left(g\right)\to Fe\left(s\right)+C{O}_2\left(g\right)\Delta H=-10.9kJ$
