what is the molar heat of combustion for ethanol? kj/mol
= 1211 kJ mol-1. Therefore the molar heat of combustion of ethanol is 1211 kJ mol-1 (The molar enthalpy of combustion of ethanol is 1211 kJ mol-1). (Note that the enthalpy change for the reaction is negative because the reaction is exothermic, so the enthalpy change for the reaction is -1211 kJ mol-1, ÎH = - 1211 kJ mol-1)
