Great Question!
The Answer Would Be "B" The "RESPONDING" Variable
This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.
To calculate the amount of heat transferred when an amount of reactant is decomposed, we must look at the balanced reaction and its corresponding heat of reaction. In this case, we can see that 252.8 kJ of heat is transferred per 2 moles of CH3OH used. When 22 g of CH3OH is used, 86.9 kJ is absorbed.
