For this demonstration to the CEO, we're going to calculate the change in enthalpy, AH, for the
combustion of 4 compounds: methane (CH4), ethane (C₂H6), propane (C3H8), and ethanol
(C₂H5OH).

1)
For each compound, complete the following steps:
a) Write a complete, balanced combustion equation using Lewis structures for all
species. An example for methane is shown below.
b) Make a list of all the bonds that are broken and formed during the reaction (see
also example below).
c) Calculate AH in kJ/mol using the equation above.
d) Calculate the AH in kJ/g.
Ex. Balanced Combustion Equation for Methane (CH4)
H
H-C-H + 20=0
H
Bond Broken (energy absorbed)
4 C-H bonds
2 0=0 bonds
0=c=0 +
2 H-O-H
Bonds Formed (energy released)
2 C=0 bonds
4 O-H bonds
