Detailed Solution
The given reaction for combustion is: C12H22O11(s)+12O2(g)→12CO2(g)+11H2O(g);ΔH=-1348.9kcal ∆n=number of moles of products- number of moles of reactants =(12+11)-12 =11 mol∆H= Heat of reaction at constant pressureΔE =heat of reaction at constant volume; R=0.002kcal;T=298 K. But ΔH=ΔE+ΔnRT = -1348.9+(11 x0.002 x298)= -1348.9+6.556 = -1342.344 k cal
