Chapter 4, Problem 4.32P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The standard heat of combustion of fuel oil at 25 oC = 298 K should be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

From the definition of heat flow, heat is related to internal energy and enthalpy of reaction as follows:

Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics, Chapter 4, Problem 4.32P , additional homework tip  1

Here, Q is heat released, ΔU is change in internal energy, ΔH is change in enthalpy, P is pressure and T is temperature.

Also, the heat of combustion at 298K can be calculated using the following equation:
