A balloon is inflated to its full extent by heating the air inside it. In the final stages of this process, the volume of the balloon increases due to the addition of 1.70???108 J of energy as heat. Assume that all the heat comes from the combustion of propane, and that the balloon expands against a constant pressure.
C3H8(g) + 5 O2(g) ? 3 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(l)
?H = ?2221 kJ
What mass of propane (in g) must be burned to furnish this amount of energy, assuming the heat transfer process is 61.0% efficient?
