The combustion of methanol is shown by the final equation: 2 CH3OH(l) + 3 O2(g) = 2 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(g) What mass of water could be heated from 20.0°C to 35.0°C by the burning of 2.57 mol of methanol?
Added by Flame I.
Step 1
The heat of combustion of methanol is -726 kJ/mol. Since we have 2.57 mol of methanol, the total heat released is -726 kJ/mol * 2.57 mol = -1866.82 kJ. Show more…

Methanol burns in air to form carbon dioxide and water: 2 CH3OH + 3 O2 ---> 2 CO2 + 4 H2O If 209 g of CH3OH are used up, what mass of H2O is produced?
Vishal S.
Methanol (CH3OH) burns in air according to the equation 2CH3OH + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 4H2O. If 229 g of methanol are used up in a combustion process, what is the mass of H2O produced? ___g
