Question
a) Calculate the heat evolve when the ethanol was combusted
b) Calculate the enthalpy change of combustion per mole of ethanol

Transcribed Image Text:3. In order to measure the enthalpy change of combustion of ethanol, a student
heated a copper calorimeter containing 100 cm of water with a spirit lamp (also
known as an ethanol burner) and collected the following data.
Initial temperature of water:
Final temperature of water:
Mass of ethanol burned:
Density of water:
20.0 °C

- I need hand written solution onlyarrow_forwardTry Again Your answer is incorrect. • (2): Your answer is incorrect. Combustion of hydrocarbons such as octane (CH₁8) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere can trap the Sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the Earth. For this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid octane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. 2Cg H₁8 (1) + 250₂ (g) , 8 18 16CO₂ (g) + 18H₂O(g) 2 2.

Ethanol is a renewable resource and ethanol-blended fuels, like gasohol, appear to bum more efficiently in internal combustion engines. The combustion enthalpy of ethanol is 1366.9 kJ/mol The combustion enthalpy of 2-methylpentane, C6H14 is 4.157x103 kJ/mol.
