1. Balance the individual equation
2. If necessary, Look up the standard enthalpies
3. Flip equations around necessary to cancel out terms on opposite sides
4. Changing the equation around requires a sign change og the H of that individual step
5. Sum up the individual steps

Do This!
Yes, because I can see that the solution and response are correct, it followed the step-by-step
procedure.

1. Leave equation 1 untouched (want CO2 as a product) multiply second equation by 2 (want to
cancel 2S, also want 2SO on product side) flip 3rd equation ( want CS2 as a reactant)
2. C(S) + 0₂(g) H = -393.5 kJ/mol
2S(S) + 2O₂(g) H = -593.6 kJ/mol <--- note multiply by 2 on the ΔH
CS₂(ℓ) --->C(s) ΔH = -87.9 KJ/mol <--- note sign change in the ΔH

3. Add the three revised equations. C and 2S will cancel

4. Add the three enthalpies for the final answer
