    So as the reaction proceeds we lose energy as the reaction is exothermic due to the delta H being negative, this shows that heat flows from the system to its surroundings.

    Explanation:

    2H6O (l) + 3O2 (g) = 2CO2 (g) + 3H2O (g)

    2CH3CH2OH (l) + 3O2 (g) = 2CO2 (g) + 3H2O (g) ΔH = - 1234.8kJ/mol

    I'm pretty sure this is what your equation is supposed to be, seems to be an error where you've pasted it and it's replaced the O's with)
