Why the eq. H2(g)+1/2 O2(g)-->H2O(g) doesn't represent standard enthalpy of formation of water?

Dear Neha,
By Defination,
The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of a substance in its standard state from its constituent elements in their standard states (the most stable form of the element at 1 bar of pressure and the specified temperature, usually 298.15 K or 25 degrees Celsius). Its symbol is ΔHfO or ΔfHO.
Best Of Luck...!!!!
