The reaction equation has the form C6H12O6 + xO2 -> yCO2 + zH2O. Balancing carbons, y=6. Balancing hydrogens, z=6, so by balancing oxygen atoms, x=6. Then we use a Hess's law cycle (to be shown during interview) to find that the enthalpy of combustion is -(-1273.3kJ/mol)+(-6x-393.5kJ/mol+-6x-285.8kJ/mol) = -2802.5kJ/mol.
