The following sequence of reactions occurs in the commercial production of aqueous nitcric acid:

4NH3(g)+ 5O2(g) -> 4NO2 (g) + 6H2O(l) ΔH = -907 kJ

2NO(g) + O2(g) ? 2NO2(g) ΔH= -113 kJ

3NO2 + H2O(l) -> 2HNO3(aq) + NO(g) ΔH= -139 kJ

Determine the total energy change for the production of one mole of aqueous nitric acid by this process
