Q.

The standard enthalpy of formation of gaseous H2O at 298 K is -242 kJ mol-1. Calculate ΔH at 373 K given the following values of the molar heat capacities at constant pressure. 

Molar heat capacity of H2O(g)=33.5 JK-1 mol-1 

Molar heat capacity of H2(g)=28.8 JK-1 1mol-1

Molar heat capacity of O2(g)=29.4 JK-1mol-1 

{Assume that the heat capacities are independent of temperature.}
