Both propane and butane are used as gaseous fuels. Which compound produce more heat per gram burned? (mass of propane (C 3 H 3 )=44.1g/mol. mass of butane (C,H,0)=

58.1g/mol)(10pts)

(Hpropane-103.8kJ/mol.) (H propane-126.0kJ/mol)

Since the heat of combustion of butane is higher than that of propane,  butane will produce more heat per gram when burned compared to propane.

The heat of combustion of a compound refers to the heat evolved when one mole of the compound is burnt under standard conditions. This heat of combustion increases from methane upwards.

Since the heat of combustion of alkanes increases according to increasing molar mass, butane will produce more heat per gram when burned compared to propane.
