Title: Enthalpy of Combustion
Post by: Pixel101 on July 24, 2005, 12:57:14 AM

I was just wondering, how would you determine the Enthalpy of Combustion of a -CH2 - unit in a practical testing the enthalpy of combustion of primary alcohols???

 ???
Totally Confused?? Please any advice would help majorly! I've already calibrated my calorimeter using 1-propanal, obtaining a calibration factor of 1.2786 KG C. However the next processes I'm just not sure which direction to go??
