Chemistry Question from JEE Main 2025 · 22 January, Shift 2

Consider the following cases of standard enthalpy of reaction (ΔHr\Delta H_r^\circ in kJ mol1\text{kJ mol}^{-1}):

C2H6(g)+72O2(g)2CO2(g)+3H2O(l)ΔH1=1550\text{C}_2\text{H}_6(g) + \frac{7}{2} \, \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow 2 \, \text{CO}_2(g) + 3 \, \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \quad \Delta H_1^\circ = -1550 C(graphite)+O2(g)CO2(g)ΔH2=393.5\text{C(graphite)} + \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{CO}_2(g) \quad \Delta H_2^\circ = -393.5 H2(g)+12O2(g)H2O(l)ΔH3=286\text{H}_2(g) + \frac{1}{2} \, \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \quad \Delta H_3^\circ = -286

The magnitude of ΔHf\Delta H_f^\circ of C2H6(g)\text{C}_2\text{H}_6(g) is _____ kJ mol1\text{kJ mol}^{-1} (Nearest integer).
