Chapter 5, Problem 87E

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

Heat evolved on combustion of $1\text{kg}$ of propyne $\left({\text{C}}_{\text{3}}{\text{H}}_{\text{4}}\right)$ , propylene $\left({\text{C}}_{\text{3}}{\text{H}}_{\text{6}}\right)$ and propane $\left({\text{C}}_{\text{3}}{\text{H}}_8\right)$ to yield ${\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)$ and ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\left(g\right)$ .

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The most efficient fuel in terms of heat evolved per unit mass.
