Question

List the number of each type of atom on the left side of the equation C5H12(g)+8O2(g)→5CO2(g)+6H2O(g)

Answer 1

Answer:

The combustion of pentane, C5H12, occurs via the reaction C5H12(g)+8O2(g)→5CO2(g)+6H2O(g) with heat of formation values given by the following table: Substance ΔH∘f (kJ/mol) C5H12 (g) -119.9 CO2(g) −393.5 H2O(g) −241.8 Calculate the enthalpy for the combustion of pentane.
