Consider the combustion of liquid CsHs in oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. In an experiment, 0.1063 g of CsHs is combusted to produce enough heat to raise the temperature of 150.0 g of water by 7.632 °C. This experiment determined the enthalpy of formation of CsHs is 134 kJ/mol. If the literature value for the enthalpy of formation of CsHs is 144 kJ/mol, then what is the magnitude of the percent error for this experiment?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Consider the given information is as follows;

Experimental value for the enthalpy of formation of C5H8 = 134 kJ/mol

Literature value for the enthalpy of formation of C5H8 = 144 kJ/mol

Magnitude of the percent error for the experiment = ?
