Answer:
2300 kg of methane will need to be combusted.
Explanation:
The enthalpy of this combustion is -882 kJ/mol CH4.
To generate 126799 kJ of energy, we need
[tex]molCH_4=\frac{126799kJ}{882kJ/mol}= 143.76molCH_4[/tex]
The molecular weight of CH4 is (12+4*1)=16 g/mol
Then, the mass needed to generate 126799 kJ of energy is
[tex]kgCH_4=143.76mol*16\frac{g}{mol}*\frac{1kg}{1000g} =2300kgCH_4[/tex]
