One mole of $C_2H_5OH_{(l)}$ was completely burnt in oxygen to form $CO_{2(g)}$ and $H_2O_{(l)}$. The standard enthalpy of formation $\Delta_fH^{\ominus}$ of $C_2H_5OH_{(l)}, CO_{2(g)}$ and $H_2O_{(l)}$ is $x, y, z \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. What is $\Delta_rH^{\ominus}$ (in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$) for this reaction?

The reaction of methanol $(\Delta H_f^o = -238.7 \ kJ \ mol^{-1})$ with $2$-methylpropene produces methyl tert-butyl ether $(\Delta H_f^o = -313.6 \ kJ \ mol^{-1})$.
