To find the total energy released when 7.7 mol of C reacts, we need to multiply the amount of C reacted by the heat of combustion reaction.
7.7 mol C x 94. kcal/mol = 727.8 kcal
Therefore, when 7.7 mol of C reacts, 727.8 kcal of energy is released.
The combustion of coal with oxygen forms CO2 and releases 94. kcal of energy.
C(s) + O2(g) -+ CO2 (g) ΔΗ =- 94. kcal/mol
How much energy is released when 7.7 mol of C reacts? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant figures.
