Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The heat of combustion of acetylene has to be calculated and the answer should be reported in kilojoules per mole (kJ/mol) and in kilojoules per gram (kJ/g).
Concept Introduction:
Heat of combustion: It is also known as potential heat of fuel. Heat of combustion of carbon depends on its allotropic form.
A fuel is a substance which releases energy in the form of heat while undergoing combustion. Hydrocarbons which have high heats of combustion make it a best fuel.
Combustion reaction: It is the reaction in which hydrocarbons are heated in presence of oxygen results to give water and carbon dioxide with heat.
Bond energy or more correctly the bond dissociation enthalpy is the enthalpy change when breaking a bond in a molecule with the reactant and products in the gas phase.
