SUMMARY
The conversion of isobutanol's heat of combustion from kJ/kg to kJ/mol involves using its molar mass of 74 g/mol. The heat of combustion is 35.981 kJ per gram, which means that burning one mole (74 grams) yields 74 times this amount. Therefore, the heat of combustion for isobutanol in kJ/mol is calculated as 35.981 kJ multiplied by 74, resulting in a total of 2665.654 kJ/mol.
