Calculate the enthalpy change in kJ/mol for the combustion of butane (C4H10) given that the heat of formation of CO2(g) is -393.5 kJ/mol, the heat of formation of H2O(l) is -285.8 kJ/mol, and the heat of formation of C4H10(g) is -126 kJ/mol. The balanced equation for the combustion of butane is:2C4H10(g) + 13O2(g) → 8CO2(g) + 10H2O(l) + heat.
