Calculate the heat of combustion (kJ) of propane, C3H8 using the listed standard enthalpy of reaction data:

Posted: 13-07-2022

1. C3​H8​(g)+5O2(g)⟶3CO2​(g)+4H2​O(g)

2. 3C(s)+4H2​(g)⟶C3​H8​(g)ΔH/kJ=−103.8

3. C(s)+O2​(g)⟶CO2​(g)ΔH/kJ=−393.5

4. H2​(g)+1/2O2​(g)⟶H2​O(g)ΔH/kJ=−241.8

A. -2043.9

B. -1532.9

C. -1021.9

D. -739.1

Answer:- A. -2043.9

C2H2(g) + 2½O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + H2O(l) ΔHc =?

The heat of combustion of propane, C3H8, as labeled in the equation C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(l),

Is –2220 kJ mol-1 and the heats of creation of carbon dioxide gas also water liquid are –393.5 kJ mol-1 and -285.8 kJ mol-1 respectively.
