Calculate the standard enthalpy of formation of CuO2, given that:
2Cu2O + O2 ==> 4 CuO (-288 kJ)
Cu2O ==> Cu + CuO (11 kJ)
PLEASE HELP!!!!

You need to examine your post. Nowhere in your post does CuO2 appear except in the question. Neither equation contains CuO2.
Standard enthalpy of formation is creating a compound from it's elements- you don't need the equation DrBob222.
The equation would read: Cu + O2 yields CuO2.
Then use Hess's law to figure it out.
