Chapter 6, Problem 6.83P

Liquid methanol ${\text{(CH}}_{\text{3}}\text{OH)}$ can be used as an alternative fuel in picking and SUV engines. An industrial method for preparing it involves the catalytic hydorgenation of carbon monoxide: ${\text{CO(g)+2H}}_{\text{2}}(g)\underset{\_}{cata\text{l}yst}{\text{ CH}}_{\text{3}}\text{O}\text{H}(\text{l})$ How much heat (in kJ) is released when $\text{15}{\text{.0 L of CO at 85}}^{\text{o}}\text{C and 112 kPa}$ with $\text{18}{\text{.5 L of H}}_{\text{2}}{\text{ at 75}}^{\text{o}}\text{C and 744 torr?}$
