question 103

Multiple Choice

Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction
2C₈H₁₈(l) + 21O₂(g) $\rarr$ 8CO(g) + 8CO₂(g) + 18H₂O(l) .
Given:
2C₈H₁₈(l) + 25O₂(g) $\rarr$ 16CO₂(g) + 18H₂O(l) $\rarr$ H° = -11,020 kJ/mol
2CO(g) + O₂(g) $\rarr$ 2CO₂(g) $\Delta$ H° = -566.0 kJ/mol

• A)-1.0454 × 10⁴ kJ/mol
• B)-8,756 kJ/mol
• C)-6,492 kJ/mol
• D)1.0454 × 10⁴ kJ/mol
• E)1.1586 × 10⁴ kJ/mol

Definitions:

Total Costs

The sum of all expenses incurred in the production of goods or services, including both fixed and variable costs.

Break-even Point

The level of sales at which total revenues equal total expenses, resulting in no net profit or loss.

Variable Cost

Expenses that change in proportion with the level of activity or production volume, such as materials costs or sales commissions.

Fixed Costs

Expenses that do not change with the level of goods or services produced by a business over a certain period, such as rent, salaries, and loan payments.
