Some of the butane, C 4 H 10 (g), in a 200.0 L cylinder at 26.0 C
Question:
Some of the butane, C4H10(g), in a 200.0 L cylinder at 26.0 °C is withdrawn and burned at a constant pressure in an excess of air. As a result, the pressure of the gas in the cylinder falls from 2.35 atm to 1.10 atm. The liberated heat is used to raise the temperature of 132.5 L of water in a heater from 26.0 to 62.2 °C. Assume that the combustion products are CO2(g) and H2O(l) exclusively, and determine the efficiency of the water heater. (That is, what percent of the heat of combustion was absorbed by the water?)
