Use Hesss law to calculate the standard heat of the water-gas shift reaction CO (g) + H

Question:

Use Hess’s law to calculate the standard heat of the water-gas shift reaction CO (g) + H2O (v) → CO2 (g) + H2 (g) from each of the two sets of data given here.

(a) CO (g) + H2O (l) → CO2 (g) + H2 (g):        ΔH˚г = + 1226 Btu/lb-mole 

H2O (l) → H2O (v): ΔHv = + 18,935 Btu/lb-mole

(b) CO (g) + ½ O2 (g) → CO2 (g):       ΔH˚г = —121,740 Btu/lb-mole 

H2 (g) + ½ O2 (g) → H2O (v): ΔH˚г = —104,040 Btu/lb-mole
