Since you did not give a calculation,
I will just give an example. Suppose that you are to burn 5 kg of methane (CH4)
from 0 to 10°C. The specific heat capacity of methane is 4.475 kJ/kg-K.
H
= mCpT
H
= (5kg)( 4.475 kJ/kg-K)(10-0)
H = 223.75 kJ
Because the enthalpy is positive
in value, methane takes in heat.
Hope that helps, pls double check tho :)
