C. The
heats of formation at 25
C are: benzene, (C

), 394.0 MJ/kmol.
A mixture of one part by volume of vaporised benzene to fifty parts by volume of air is
ignited in a cylinder and adiabatic combustion ensues at constant volume. If the initial
pressure and temperature of the mixture are 10 bar and 500 K respectively, calculate the
maximum pressure and temperature after combustion neglecting dissociation. (Assume the
internal energy of the fuel is 8201 kJ/kmol at 298 K and 12,998
