The heat that is released by the combustion of 3.5 moles of methane is 3115 kJ/mol.
<h3>What is a thermochemical equation?</h3>
A thermochemical equation is a reaction equation that incorporates the amount of heat lost/gained.
In this case, the reaction equation is; CH4 + O2 ----->CO2 + 2H2O dH = -890 kJ/mol
If 1 mole of methane releases 890 kJ/mol
3.5 moles of methane will release 3.5 moles * 890 kJ/mol/1 mole
= 3115 kJ/mol

Question
</h2>
A sample of methane collected when the temp was 30 C and 760mmHg measures 398 mL. What would be the volume of the sample at -5 C and 616 mmHg pressure
<h2>
Answer:</h2>
434.32mL
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
Using the combined gas law:
= k
Where;
P = Pressure
V = Volume
T = Temperature
k = constant.
It can be deduced that:
= = k ---------------------(i)
Where:
P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressures of the given gas
V₁ and V₂ are the initial and final volumes of the given gas
T₁ and T₂ are the initial and final temperatures of the gas.
<em>From the question:</em>
the gas is methane
P₁ = 760mmHg
P₂ = 616mmHg
V₁ = 398mL
V₂ = ?
T₁ = 30°C = (30 +273)K = 303K
T₂ = -5°C = (-5 +273)K = 268K
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;
=
Solve for V₂
V₂ =
V₂ = 434.32mL
Therefore, the volume of the sample at -5C and 616mmHg pressure is 434.32mL
Answer: hot
Explanation:
Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and the system will be cold and surroundings will be hot.
Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and the system will be hot and surroundings will be cold.
As heat is absorbed, the reaction is endothermic and the system will feel hot.
