Question
Octane, C3H18 , is a constituent of gasoline, and burns in the presence of oxygen to produce water and
carbon dioxide:
25 O2(g)
18 H2O(1)
2 C3H18 (1) +
C3H18 (1)
→ 16 CO2(g) +
ΔΗΟ
kJ/2mol
%D
rxn
When a 1.00-gram sample of octane is burned in a bomb calorimeter the
temperature of the water and the calorimeter rises from 25.00°C to 33.20°C.
If the heat capacity, Cpomb cal, of the empty bomb calorimeter is 837 J/°C, and the mass of the water is
1.200 kg:
a) Calculate the heat, q, transferred, during the combustion, to the calorimeter:
[ Select ]
kJ (calorimter)
+ qbomb cal
Cbomb cal • AT
b) Calculate the heat, q, transferred, during the combustion, to the water:
[ Select ]
kJ (1.200 kg H20)
+ 9H2O =
• AT • SH2O
+
MH20
c) Calculate the enthalpy change (AHº rxn = kJ/2mol) for this reaction (2 mol of C3H18 (1):
[ Select ]
kJ/2 mol C3H18 (1)
