Question:
When methanol, CH3OH,CH3OH, is burned in the presence of oxygen gas, O2,O2, a large amount of heat energy is released. For this reason, it is often used as a fuel in high performance racing cars. The combustion of methanol has the balanced, thermochemical equation
CH3OH(g)+32O2(g)⟶CO2(g)+2H2O(l)ΔH=−764 kJCH3OH(g)+32O2(g)⟶CO2(g)+2H2O(l)ΔH=−764 kJ
How much methanol, in grams, must be burned to produce 639 kJ639 kJ of heat?
