For a particular isomer of C8H18,C8H18, the combustion reaction produces 5093.7 kJ5093.7 kJ of heat per mole of C8H18(g)C8H18(g) consumed, under standard conditions.
C8H18(g)+252O2(g)⟶8CO2(g)+9H2O(g) ΔH∘rxn=−5093.7 kJ/mol
What is the standard enthalpy of formation of this isomer of C8H18(g)?
I have taken the standard enthalpy of formation values from standard text books (as they are required to solve this question)
For
CO2 = -393.5 kJ/mol
H2O (g) = -241.8
O2 = 0
