If the heat produced by the reaction of combustion of 1 mole of ethanol is 8 kJ/mol, (see the thermochemical equation below), how much heat in kJ is produced by the combustion of 155 g of ethanol at the same conditions (MMethanol= 46.07 g/mol)? C2H6O(g) + 3O2(g)  → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g);       ∆H°rxn=−1366.8 kJ/mol  

Use the appropriate gas law and units to calculate the pressure exerted on a 10.0L container with only 5.0 g of CO2(g) at a temperature of 25 oC
