Activity 1
The equation for the combustion of butane gas is given below.
1.1
1.2
AH < 0
butane(g) + 1302(g) → 8CO2(g) + 10H2O(g)
Define the term activation energy.
Is the combustion reaction of butane exothermic or endothermic? Give
reason for the answer.
Draw a sketch graph of potential energy versus course of reaction for
reaction above.
3
