Styrene, C8H8, is one of the substances used in the production of synthetic rubber.When styrene burns in oxygen to form carbon dioxide and liquid water under standard-state conditions at 25°C, 42.62 kJ are released per gram of styrene.Find the standard enthalpy of formation of styrene at 25°C. (Given: H°f[CO2(g) ] = -393.5 kJ/mol, H°f[H2O(l) ] = -285.8 kJ/mol, H°f[H2O(g) ] = -241.8 kJ/mol)
A) 147.8 kJ/mol
B) 323.8 kJ/mol
C) ~636.7 kJ/mol
D) ~4249 kJ/mol
E) ~8730 kJ/mol
