When methanol, CH, OH, is burned in the presence of oxygen gas, O,, a large amount of heat energy is released. For this reason, it is often used as a fuel in high performance racing cars. The combustion of methanol has the balanced, thermochemical equation CH, OH(g) + 0,(g) → CO,(g) + 2 H,O(1) ΔΗ --764 kJ How much methanol, in grams, must be burned to produce 837 kJ of heat?
10.00 g of Compound X with molecular formula C4H8 are burned in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 50.00 kg of water at 25 °C. The temperature of the water is observed to rise by 2.151 °C. (You may assume all the heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the water, and none by the calorimeter itself.) Calculate the standard heat of formation of Compound X at 25 °C. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to 2 significant digits.
