Gram for gram, fats in food have much more chemical energy than sugar. One component of fat is stearic acid, C18H36O2. When a sample of 1.02 g of stearicd acid was burned completely in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter rose by 4.26 oC. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was 9.43 kJ/oC. Calculate the molar heat of combustion of stearic acid in kilojoules per mole. answer: (-11189 kJ/mol)

Many barbeque grills use propane gas, C3H8(g) as a fuel source. Using standard enthalpies of formation, calculate the quantity of heat produced, in kJ, when 25 liters of liquid propane is completely combusted in air. (The density of liquid propane is 582 kg/m3.) Note: The propane is in the condensed liquid state in the tank but changes to the gas phase as it is released. Calculate the change in enthalpy for the reaction assuming all reactants and products are in the gas phase.
