Question:
When charcoal is burned in a limited supply of oxygen in the presence of H2O, a mixture of CO, H2, and other noncombustible gases (mostly CO2) is obtained. Such a mixture is called synthesis gas. This gas can be used to synthesize organic compounds, or it can be burned as a fuel. A typical synthesis gas consists of 55.0% CO(g), 33.0% H2(g), and 12.0% noncombustible gases (mostly CO2), by volume. To what temperature can 25.0 kg water at be heated with the heat liberated by the combustion of 0.205 m3 of this typical synthesis gas, measured at 25.0 °C and 102.6 kPa pressure?
