Markscheme
Bonds broken:
2(C–C) + 1(C=C) + 8(C–H) + 6O=O / 2(346) + 1(614) + 8(414) + 6(498) / 7606 «kJ» ✓
Bonds formed:
8(C=O) + 8(O–H) / 8(804) + 8(463) / 10 136 «kJ» ✓
Enthalpy change:
«Bonds broken – Bonds formed = 7606 kJ – 10 136 kJ =» –2530 «kJ» ✓
Award [2 max] for «+» 2530 «kJ».
Award [3] for correct final answer.
