Hydrogen and methanol have both been proposed as alternatives to hydrocarbon fuels. write balanced reactions for the complete combustion of hydrogen. use standard enthalpies of formation to calculate the amount of heat released per kilogram of the fuel.

The amount of heat released per kilogram of hydrogen is -142,750 kJ and per kilogram of methanol is -22690.3 kJ

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrogen follows:

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Mass of hydrogen reacted = 1 mole = 2 grams

Conversion factor used:  1 kg = 1000 g

Applying unitary method:

When 2 grams of hydrogen is combusted, the amount of heat released is 285.8 kJ

So, when 1000 grams of hydrogen is combusted, the amount of heat released will be

Amount of heat released per kilogram of hydrogen combusted = -142,750 kJ

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrogen follows:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Mass of methanol reacted = 2 moles = 64 grams

Applying unitary method:

When 64 grams of methanol is combusted, the amount of heat released is 1452.18 kJ

So, when 1000 grams of methanol will be combusted, the amount of heat released will be

Amount of heat released per kilogram of methanol combusted = -22690.3 kJ

a pan containing water is placed in a positio n where it is exposed to a 10 mile per hour wind. the pan contains a uniform depth of 1.27 cm of water, is quite wide, and has a length of 2.44 m in the wind direction. the water in the pan is at a constant temperature of 15.5 °c.

it should have an internal chamber and two thermometers sticking out of the top. the internal chamber will also be closed off from the outside.
