Which is a good fuel`CH_(4)` or`C_(2)H_(6)` ? The standard enthalpy of formation of `CH_(4), C_(2)H_(6), CO_(2)` and `H_(2)O` are `- 74.8, - 84.6 , - 393 . 5` and `-286kJ mol^(-1)` respectively.

Answer» Correct Answer - `CH_(4)`
Calculate `Delta H `for
`CH_(4) + 2O_(2) rarr CO_(2)+ 2H_(2)O`
and `C_(2)H_(6) + (7)/(2) O_(2) rarr 2CO_(2)+ 3H_(2)O`
Then calculate `Delta H ` per gram
