Heat of Combustion Calculation
Calculate the heat of combustion of cyclohexatriene using the bond energies for C=C,C-C, and CH provided below. The actual value measured experimentally is 3331.2 KJ/mol. What is the percentage difference between the measured and calculated value?
Bond Energy [kj (kcal)}:
C=C 611 (146)
C-C 350 (83)
CH 420 (100)
