Answer:

II. The reaction is exothermic.

III. The enthalpy term would be different if the water formed was gaseous.

Explanation:

For the reaction:

C₂H₅OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(l)

The  ΔH is -1.37×10³ kJ. As the change in enthalpy is <0, II. The reaction is exothermic.

The ΔH formation of a compound is different if the chemical is in liquid or gaseous phase. For that reason: III. The enthalpy term would be different if the water formed was gaseous.

I hope it helps!
