Heating and Cooling Curves
13. Liquids, Solids & Intermolecular Forces / Heating and Cooling Curves / Problem 1

Spray deodorants contain low boiling point compounds. One compound added to deodorants is butane (C4H10) which boils at -1.0°C. When liquid butane is sprayed on the skin at room temperature, the skin feels cold. If the heat lost by the skin is gained by butane, determine the enthalpies that must be used in order to calculate the final temperature of the skin.
