Heats of formation, hydrogenation, and combustion of the monoolefin hydrocarbons through the hexenes, and of the higher 1-alkenes, in the gaseous state at 25 degrees C

For ethylene, propylene, the four butenes, the six pentenps, and the 17 hexenes, and all the higher I-alkene hydrocarbons, in the gaseous sta te at 25° C, values are given for the heats of formation (from the elements solid carbon (graphite) and gaseous hydrogen), the heats of hydrogenation in the gaseous state, and the heats of combustion (in oxygen to form gaseous carbon dioxide and liquid water).The values for 2 of the pentenes, 14 of the 17 hexenes, and all the higher I-alkene hydrocarbons, were calculated by a method involving correlation of the heat of hydrogenation with structure and the use of constants evaluated from the available experimental data on 4 butenes, 4 pentenes, 3 hexenes, and 1 hcptene.
