### Standard Enthalpies of Formation

The table below lists some standard enthalpies of formation, \( \Delta H_f^\circ \), at 298 K for various substances.

| Substance       | Formula   | \( \Delta H_f^\circ  \) (kJ/mol) |
|-----------------|-----------|----------------------------------|
| Carbon dioxide  | CO\(_2\)(g)  | \(-393.5\)                      |
| Carbon monoxide | CO(g)     | \(-110.5\)                      |
| Methane         | CH\(_4\)(g)  | \(-74.80\)                      |
| Propane         | C\(_3\)H\(_8\)(g) | \(-103.85\)                     |
| Water           | H\(_2\)O(l)  | \(-285.8\)                      |
| Water vapor     | H\(_2\)O(g)  | \(-241.8\)                      |

*Note: Refer to Pages 186 - 190, Section 5.7, while completing this problem.*

### Part A

Many portable gas heaters and grills use propane, C\(_3\)H\(_8\)(g).

**Problem Statement:**
Using enthalpies of formation, calculate the quantity of heat produced when 19.0 g of propane is completely combusted in air under standard conditions. Assume that liquid water is forming.

**Instructions:**
Express the heat in kilojoules to three significant digits.

**Equation Input:**
\[ Q = \_\_\_\_ \text{ kJ} \]
