Calculate the heat, in kJ, released when 0.250 mol0.250\,\text{mol} of CH4(g)CH_4(g) undergoes complete combustion according to CH4(g)+2 O2(g)→CO2(g)+2 H2O(l)CH_4(g) + 2\,O_2(g) \rightarrow CO_2(g) + 2\,H_2O(l) Given ΔHrxn=−890 kJ mol−1\Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = -890\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1} for the combustion of CH4CH_4.
