Chapter 10, Problem 10.100QP
Compare the heat produced by the complete combustion of 1 mole of methane (CH4) with a mole of water gas (0.50 mole H2 and 0.50 mole CO) under the same conditions. On the basis of your answer, would you prefer methane over water gas as a fuel? Can you suggest two other reasons why methane is preferable to water gas as a fuel?
