One lbmol of pentane gas (C5H₁2) reacts with the theoretical amount of air in a closed, rigid tank. Initially, the reactants are at 77°F, 1 atm. After complete combustion, the temperature in the tank is 3100°R. Assume air has a molar analysis of 21% O₂ and 79% N₂. Determine the heat transfer, in Btu.
