Question

In an experiment 4.5 kg of a fuel was completely burnt. The heat produced was

measured to be 1,80,000 kilo joule. Calculate the calorific value of the fuel​

Answer 1

Answer:

40,000 kJ/kg

Explanation:

Total mass of fuel = 4.5 kg

Total heat produced = 180,000 kJ

Heat produced by burning 1 kg of fuel = 180,000 kJ/4.5 kg = 40,000 kJ/kg.

So, calorific value of fuel = 40,000 kJ/kg
