0.16g of methane was subjected to combustion at `27^(@)C` in a bomb calorimeter system. The temperature of the calorimeter system ( including water ) was found to rise by `0.5^(@)C`. Calculate the heat of combustion of methane at (i) constant volume, and (ii) constant pressure . The thermal capacity of the calorimeter system is `17.7 k J K^(-1) ( R = 8.314 kJ K^(-1) mol^(-1))` |
Answer» Correct Answer - `q_(v) = - 885 kJ mol^(-1) , q_(p) = -890 kJ mol^(_1)` | |
