By using the following reactions, calculate the heat of combustion of pentane: C5H12(g)+8O2(g)→5CO2(g)+6H2O(l) . C(s)+O2(g)→CO2(g), △H=−395 kJ H2(g)+12O2(g)→H2O(l), △H=−285 kJ 5C(s)+6H2(g)→C5H12(g), △H=−147 kJ −5.42×103 kJ −3.54×103 kJ −2.85×103 kJ −6.80×103 kJ

your answer would be a. 12.5 kg

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
