Breaking reactant bonds needs 1250 kJ mol−11250\,\mathrm{kJ\,mol^{-1}}1250kJmol−1 and forming product bonds releases 1480 kJ mol−11480\,\mathrm{kJ\,mol^{-1}}1480kJmol−1. What is ΔH\Delta HΔH?
+230 kJ mol−1+230\,\mathrm{kJ\,mol^{-1}}+230kJmol−1
2730 kJ mol−12730\,\mathrm{kJ\,mol^{-1}}2730kJmol−1
−230 kJ mol−1-230\,\mathrm{kJ\,mol^{-1}}−230kJmol−1
−2730 kJ mol−1-2730\,\mathrm{kJ\,mol^{-1}}−2730kJmol−1
