One mole of methane undergoes complete combustion in a stoichiometric amount of air. The reaction proceeds as CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O. Both the reactants and products are in gas phase. ΔH°298 = -730 kJ/mole of methane. If the average specific heat of all the gases/vapour is 40 J/mole.K, the maximum temperature rise of the exhaust gases in °C would be approximately equal to
