This question requires use of the Data Booklet. Answer this question using bond enthalpy data. The equation below shows the complete combustion of methanal. $ \text{H}_2\text{C}=\text{O} + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} $ What is the enthalpy change of combustion for methanal?
- A$+416\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}$
- B$+396\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}$
- C$-344\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}$
- D$-690\ \text{kJ mol}^{-1}$
