The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

How much heat is produced when 24.8 g of $CH_4$ is burned in excess oxygen gas

Given: $CH _4
+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$ ΔH= −802 kJ.

Answer: 1243.1 kJ

Explanation:

Heat of combustion is the amount of heat released on complete combustion of 1 mole of substance.

Given :

Amount of heat released on combustion of 1 mole of methane = 802 kJ kJ/mol

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at NTP, weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.

1 mole of $CH_4$ weighs = 16 g

Thus we can say:

16 g of $CH_4$ on combustion releases heat = 802 kJ

Thus 24.8 g of $CH_4$ on combustion releases = $\frac{802}{16}\times 24.8=1243.1kJ$

Thus heat released when 24.8 g of methane is burned in excess oxygen gas is 1243.1 kJ

Composting is a technique that allows biodegradable materials of urban, domestic and industrial origin to be degraded to form humus, a type of soil that is very fertile and extremely rich in micronutrients.
These biodegradable materials are materials of organic origin, such as food scraps, fruit peels, pieces of vegetables, among others. As the domestic environment generates a large amount of organic waste, composting in this environment is very favorable, and it can generate a very rich soil to be used in the garden, in vegetables, among other places.

Hope this helps :)

How much energy must be removed from a 94.4 g sample of benzene (molar mass= 78.11 g/mol) at 322.0 K to solidify the sample and

Kay [80]

Answer : The energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ

Explanation :

The process involved in this problem are :

$(1):C_6H_6(l)(322K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(l)(279K)\\\\(2):C_6H_6(l)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(279K)\\\\(3):C_6H_6(s)(279K)\rightarrow C_6H_6(s)(205K)$

The expression used will be:

$Q=[m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]+[m\times \Delta H_{fusion}]+[m\times c_{p,s}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})]$

where,

$Q$ = heat released for the reaction = ?

m = mass of benzene = 94.4 g

$c_{p,s}$ = specific heat of solid benzene = $1.51J/g^oC=1.51J/g.K$

$c_{p,l}$ = specific heat of liquid benzene = $1.73J/g^oC=1.73J/g.K$

$\Delta H_{fusion}$ = enthalpy change for fusion = $-9.8kJ/mol=-\frac{9.8\times 1000J/mol}{78g/mol}=-125.6J/g$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$Q=[94.4g\times 1.73J/g.K\times (279-322)K]+[94.4g\times -125.6J/g]+[94.4g\times 1.51J/g.K\times (205-279)K]$

$Q=-29427.312J=-29.4kJ$

Negative sign indicates that the heat is removed from the system.

Therefore, the energy removed must be, 29.4 kJ
