A. Write the balanced equation for the combustion of dodecane (C12H26) with molecular oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide and water. B. Use Hessâs Law (BLBMWS section 5.6) to calculate the heat of combustion of dodecane using heat of formation data that can be obtained from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) web site http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/. Look up the heat of formation for dodecane using the search by name function and click on condensed phase thermochemistry data. Record the first ïfH that is listed and also record the molecular weight of dodecane for use in the laboratory. Here are some other data that you will need (taken from BLBMWS Appendix C): ïfH of formation of carbon dioxide gas is â393.5 kJ/mol, and water (liquid) is â285.83 kJ/mol. Please explain everything at length.
