Suppose a cooking gas cylinder contains $11.2 \, kg$ of isobutane. The thermochemical equation for the combustion of butane is given below:
$C_4H_{10}(g) + \frac{13}{2} O_2(g) \to 4CO_2(g) + 5H_2O(\ell); \Delta H = -2658 \, kJ$
If a family requires $15000 \, kJ$ of energy per day for cooking,how many days will the cylinder last?

  • A
    $24$
  • B
    $28$
  • C
    $31$
  • D
    $34$
