Q1ChemistryUnit 4: Chemical Thermodynamics

Heat of combustion of

\boldsymbol{C H}_{4}, \boldsymbol{C}_{2} \boldsymbol{H}_{6}

and

C_{3} H_{8}

are respectively -210,-368.4 and

-526.8 \mathrm{Kcal}

mol

_{1}

Hence, heat of combustion of

C_{8} H_{16}

is approximately:

is:

Q4ChemistryUnit 4: Chemical Thermodynamics

(i)

\boldsymbol{C a O}(\boldsymbol{s})+\boldsymbol{H}_{2} \boldsymbol{O}(l)=\boldsymbol{C a}(\boldsymbol{O H})_{2}(\boldsymbol{s})

\Delta H_{180^{\circ} C}=-15.26 k c a l

(ii)

\boldsymbol{H}_{2} \boldsymbol{O}(\boldsymbol{l})=\boldsymbol{H}_{2}(\boldsymbol{g})+\frac{1}{2} \boldsymbol{O}_{2}(\boldsymbol{g})
