Question
**Calculating ΔH<sub>rxn</sub> Using Given Reactions**

**Objective**: Calculate the enthalpy change (ΔH<sub>rxn</sub>) for the reaction:

\[ 
2\text{NOCl}(g) \rightarrow \text{N}_2(g) + \text{O}_2(g) + \text{Cl}_2(g) 
\]

**Using the following set of reactions**:

1. \( \frac{1}{2} \text{N}_2(g) + \frac{1}{2} \text{O}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{NO}(g) \)  
   \( \Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = 90.3 \, \text{kJ} \)

2. \( \text{NO}(g) + \frac{1}{2} \text{Cl}_2(g) \rightarrow \text{NOCl}(g) \)  
   \( \Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = -38.6 \, \text{kJ} \)

**Instructions**: Enter your calculated value in the provided box in kJ.

[Box for answer]: _____ kJ

Be sure to apply Hess's Law and manipulate the given reactions to derive the overall enthalpy change for the target reaction. Remember to adjust the coefficients and reverse reactions as necessary, adjusting their ΔH<sub>rxn</sub> values accordingly.
