<u>Answer:</u> The amount of energy released per gram of 
is -71.92 kJ
<u>Explanation:</u>
For the given chemical reaction:
The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(reactant)}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5Csum%20%5Bn%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28product%29%7D%5D-%5Csum%20%5Bn%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28reactant%29%7D%5D)
The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(5\times \Delta H^o_f_{(B_2O_3(s))})+(9\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(l))})]-[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(B_5H_9(l))})+(12\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%285%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28B_2O_3%28s%29%29%7D%29%2B%289%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28H_2O%28l%29%29%7D%29%5D-%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28B_5H_9%28l%29%29%7D%29%2B%2812%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28O_2%28g%29%29%7D%29%5D)
Taking the standard enthalpy of formation:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(5\times (1271.94))+(9\times (-285.83))]-[(2\times (73.2))+(12\times (0))]\\\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-9078.57kJ](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%285%5Ctimes%20%281271.94%29%29%2B%289%5Ctimes%20%28-285.83%29%29%5D-%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%2873.2%29%29%2B%2812%5Ctimes%20%280%29%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D-9078.57kJ)
We know that:
Molar mass of pentaborane -9 = 63.12 g/mol
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
If 2 moles of produces -9078.57 kJ of energy.
Or,
If 
of produces -9078.57 kJ of energy
Then, 1 gram of will produce = 
of energy.
Hence, the amount of energy released per gram of is -71.92 kJ

Hello there!
The answer is 92000 tons per year
The palmetto landfill supplies methane (CH₄) for the BMW plant there. The gas is used to operate the turbines used to power the BMW campus. It reduces carbon dioxide emissions because the combustion of methane produces fewer CO₂ than the combustion of other gases like propane or butane, which are commonly used for powering turbines.
