Accepted Answer

The heat that is released by the 1.39 Kg of pentane is 58518 kJ.What is the heat released?We know that the combustion of pentane is an exothermic reaction because heat is released in the process. We have to look to the  balanced thermochemical reaction equation for the combustion of pentane.Given that the number of moles of the pentane that is burnt here =  1.39 * 10^3 g/72 g/mol= 19.3 molesNow;If we require 3032 kJ of energy to burn one mole of pentaneIf we have 19.3 moles of pentane then we have;19.3 moles *  3032 kJ/ 1 mole= 58518 kJLearn more about thermochemical equation:https://brainly.com/question/10384873#SPJ1
