Vanillin is a natural constituent of vanilla that is also
manufactured for use in artificial vanilla flavoring.
The combustion of 1.013 g of vanillin, C3H&O3, in a
bomb calorimeter that has a heat capacity of 4.90 kJ
°C-1 causes the temperature to rise from 24.89°C to
30.09°C. What is the heat of combustion of vanillin in
terms of kcal per gram?
Ethanol, C2H6O, is most often blended with gasoline - usually as a 10 percent mix - to create a fuel called gasohol. Ethanol is a renewable resource and ethanol-blended fuels, like gasohol, appear to burn more efficiently in combustion engines. The heat of combustion of ethanol is 326.7 kcal/mol.The heat of combustion of 2-methylhexane, C7H16, is 1.150×103 kcal/mol. How much energy is released during the complete combustion of 452 grams of 2-methylhexane ?Assuming the same efficiency, would 452 grams of ethanol provide more, less, or the same amount of energy as 452 grams of 2-methylhexane?
