Question
Chapter 12, Problem 78P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason of health hazard effects of fire in a poorly ventilated room needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Combustion reactions are the
Combustion reactions produces more gaseous products therefore they have positive change of entropy for these changes. These all reactions support the combustion and release the harmful gases to environment that enhance the environmental issues.

(a) Write a balanced equation for the complete combustion of propane gas. (b) Calculate the volume of air at 25 C and 1.00 atmosphere that is needed to completely combust 25.0 grams of propane. Assume that air is 21.0 percent O2 by volume. (Hint: we will see how to do this calculation in a later chapter on gasesfor now use the information that 1.00 L of air at 25 C and 1.00 atm contains 0.275 g of 2 per liter.) (c) The heat of combustion of propane is 2,219.2 kJ/mol. Calculate the heat of formation, Hf of propane given that Hf of H2O(l)=285.8 kJ/mol and Hf of CO2(g)=393.5 kJ/mol.
