AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a user seeking assistance in creating a comprehensive spreadsheet for automotive combustion and power analysis. The user, who has a background in electrical engineering and automotive mechanics, is specifically looking for enthalpy tables for the combustion of various fuels, including gasoline, methanol, ethanol, and propane. They currently have basic data for standard conditions (295 K and 1 atm) but require more extensive information to accommodate varying pressures and temperatures. The user is inquiring about online resources or databases where they can find this data in a format suitable for easy integration into their spreadsheet. Responses suggest using the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics and recommend utilizing Google for additional resources.

Hi all!
I am rather new to the site and in addition, most of the topics I am messing with are outside of my schooling and experience as I am an electrical engineering and an automotive gear head. I am trying to further automotive science by creating a spreadsheet for combustion and power and other mumble jumble. Anway, I have done some posting under the following thread:
https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?p=571258

Alot of what I asked for I have had to do some baby steps to accomplish my cool spreadsheet. Anyway, what I need help is enthalpy tables for fuel combustion of gasoline (CnH1.87n), methanol, ethanol, and propane. I have a basic table for 295*K(?) and 1 atm. However user configuration of various geometric aspect and environment aspects don't conform to that. I need way more data. My pressures and temperatures can vary quite a bit. I need tables to look up the information, then extrapolate to meet the conditions. Where can I find the information? Is it online in a soft format that I could just cut and paste?

I appeciate any and all help! Thanks!

Sorry to say it, but google would help.
 

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
