i am really stuck on an investigation i am doing and my friend swont help i need help badly. I am going to investigate and look into the study of fuels and how much energy you can burn from them, and there for I will find the fuel that contains the most energy. I will look at five fuels which are listed below: • Methanol • Ethanol • Propanol • Butanol • Pentanol I have to firstly work out how much energy each fuel emits, and this is where i get stuck. Type of bond KJ mol-1 H - O 464 O = O 498.3 C - C 347 C - H 435 C = O 805 C - O 336 i have to write an equation and then balance it ad then work out how much energy each fuel emmits. methanol H | H – C – O – H CH4O | H Methanol + oxygen Carbon Dioxide + Water 2CH3OH + 3O2 2CO2 + 4H2O 5704.9 KJ mol-1 is thsi the answere or do i have to do a different equation is it CH4O or CH3OH? i neeed help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
