The heat of combustion is the amount of heat released when one mole of a substance undergoes
combustion according to the general reaction equation:
CxHy Oz + 0.25(4x+y-2z) O2 (g) x CO2 (g) + 0.5y H2O ()
H comb (): -1620.04817399618 kcal = -6778.33 kJ

SAFETY INFORMATION
NFPA 704 Ratings:
Health: 1 - Exposure would cause irritation with only minor residual injury.
Flammability: 2 - Must be moderately heated or exposed to relatively high ambient temperature before ignition can
occur. Flash point between 38C (100F) and 93C (200F).
Reactivity: 0 - Normally stable, even under re exposure conditions, and is not reactive with water.
