$PbO$ exists in two crystalline forms: yellow and red. The standard enthalpies of formation for these two forms are $-217.3 \ kJ/mol$ and $-219.0 \ kJ/mol$,respectively. Calculate the enthalpy of transition for the process: $PbO \text{ (yellow)} \rightarrow PbO \text{ (red)}$ in $kJ/mol$.

At constant pressure,the heat of formation of a compound is not dependent on temperature,when

The enthalpy of reaction for the reaction: $2 H_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \to 2 H_{2}O_{(l)}$ is $\Delta_{r}H^{\theta} = -572 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$. What will be the standard enthalpy of formation of $H_{2}O_{(l)}$?

Carbon and carbon monoxide burn in oxygen to form carbon dioxide according to the following reactions:
$C(s) + O_2(g) \to CO_2(g)$; $\Delta H = -394 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
$2CO(g) + O_2(g) \to 2CO_2(g)$; $\Delta H = -569 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
The heat of formation of $1 \ mol$ of carbon monoxide is thus ..... $kJ \ mol^{-1}$.
