Liquification of fuels is an important process that allows fuel to be transported more safely and more easily around the world. Oxidizing methane transforms it from a gas to a liquid, methanol, which is much easier to transport. Using the data provided calculate ΔH\Delta Hfor the oxidation of methane (CH4) shown below
CH4(g) + 1/2 O2(g)→CH3OH(l)ΔHfo(CH4(g))=−74.9kJ mol−1ΔHfo(CH3OH(l)=−238.6 kJ mol−1\begin{array}{c} CH_{4(g)}\ +\ 1/2\ O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CH_3OH_{(l)} \\ \\ \Delta H^o_f(CH_{4(g)})=-74.9 kJ\ mol^{-1} \\ \Delta H_f^o(CH_3OH_{(l)}=-238.6\ kJ\ mol^{-1} \end{array}

Please report your answer in kJ to four significant figures but do not include the unit. Please include a sign with your answer and report your answer.
