The heating value of combustible fuels is evaluated based on the quantities known as the higher...

The heating value of combustible fuels is evaluated based on the quantities known as the higher heating value (HHV) and the lower heating value (LHV). The HHV has a higher absolute value and is obtained by assuming that the water formed in the combustion reaction is formed in the liquid state. The LHV has a lower absolute value and is obtained by assuming that the water formed in the combustion reaction is formed in the gaseous state. The LHV is therefore the sum of the HHV (which is negative) and the heat of vaporization of water for the number of moles of water formed in the reaction (which is positive). The table below lists the enthalpy of combustion (which is equivalent to the HHV) for several closely related hydrocarbons. Use the information in the table to answer the following questions.
