The heat of formation is the change in enthalpy accompanying the formation of a substance from its elements at $298 \ K$ and $1 \ atm$ pressure. Since the enthalpies of elements are taken to be zero,the heat of formation $(\Delta H_f)$ of compounds

If the ratio of the enthalpy of formation of $CO_2$ and $SO_2$ is $4:3$ and the enthalpy of formation of $CS_2$ is $26 \ kcal/mol$,then what will be the enthalpy of formation of $SO_2(g)$ based on the following reaction?
$CS_2(l) + 3O_2(g) \to CO_2(g) + 2SO_2(g)$

Given the following thermochemical equations:
$(i) \ Zn + \frac{1}{2}O_2 \rightarrow ZnO + 84000 \ cal$
$(ii) \ Hg + \frac{1}{2}O_2 \rightarrow HgO + 21700 \ cal$
Calculate the heat of reaction $(\Delta H)$ for the reaction: $Zn + HgO \rightarrow ZnO + Hg$. (in $cal$)

Calculate the heat of formation of $Ca(OH)_{2(s)}$ at $1.8\,^{\circ}C$ from the following data:
$CaO_{(s)} + H_2O_{(l)} \to Ca(OH)_{2(s)}$; $\Delta H_{1.8\,^{\circ}C} = -15.26\,K\,cal$
$H_{2(g)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} \to H_2O_{(l)}$; $\Delta H_{1.8\,^{\circ}C} = -68.37\,K\,cal$
$Ca_{(s)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} \to CaO_{(s)}$; $\Delta H_{1.8\,^{\circ}C} = -151.80\,K\,cal$

State Hess's Law of Constant Heat Summation.

The standard enthalpy of formation $(\Delta_fH^o)$ at $298 \ K$ for methane,$CH_{4(g)}$ is $-74.8 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$. The additional information required to determine the average energy for $C-H$ bond formation would be
