?It is interesting to compare the “fuel value” of a hydrocarbon in a hypothetical world
Chapter 5, Problem 5.96(choose chapter or problem)
It is interesting to compare the “fuel value” of a hydrocarbon in a hypothetical world where oxygen is not the combustion agent. The enthalpy of formation of CF4(g) is -679.9 kJ/mol. Which of the following two reactions is the more exothermic?
\(\mathrm{CH}_{4}(g)+2 \mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(g)\) \(\mathrm{CH}_{4}(g)+4 \mathrm{~F}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CF}_{4}(g)+4 \mathrm{HF}(g)\)
Text Transcription:
CH_4(g)+2O_2(g) longrightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)
CH_4(g)+4F_2(g) longrightarrow CF_4(g)+4HF(g)
