The standard enthalpies of formation, at 25.00 oC, of methanol (CH4O(l)), water (H2O(l)), and carbon dioxide (CO2(g)) are, respectively, -238.7 kJ/mol, -285.8 kJ/mol, and -393.5 kJ/mol. Calculate the change in the entropy of the surroundings (in J/K) upon the combustion of 14.3 g of methanol under a constant pressure of 1.000 atm and a temperature of 25.00 oC. N. B. Combustion is the reaction of this substance with molecular oxygen to produce water and carbon dioxide.

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.
