What is the enthalpy change for the first reaction? CH4(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CH3OH(g) ΔH = CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) ΔH = -805.2 CH3OH(l) + 3/2 O2 → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) ΔH = -675.5

The enthalpy change for the following reaction is 206 kJ. Using bond energies, estimate the C-H bond energy in CH4(g). CH4(g) + H2O(g) → 3H2(g) + CO(g) kJ/mol
