(a) Write a balanced equation, using the simplest whole-number coefficients, for the complete combustion of kerosene to gases. (b) If = −1.50×104 kJ for the combustion equation as written in part (a), determine of kerosene. (c) Calculate the heat released by combustion of 0.50 gal of kerosene (d of kerosene = 0.749 g/mL). (d) How many gallons of kerosene must be burned for a kerosene furnace to produce 1250. Btu (1 Btu = 1.055 kJ)?
