A 9.725-g gaseous mixture contains ethane () and propane (). Complete combustion to form carbon dioxide and water requires 1.115 moles of oxygen gas. Calculate the mass percent of ethane in the original mixture.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

% = 33.83%

Explanation:

To do a better understanding of this, we can treat the mixture of the combustion as two separate reactions, in that way, we can have an idea of what is happening and how to calculate the mass percent.

So the combustion reactions in this mixture are:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ ---------> 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ ----------> 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Now that we have both reactions (And balanced) we can hace an idea of the mole ratio between every compound in the mix.

For practical purposes, let's call "a" the mass of ethane, and "b" the mass of propane. The innitial mix have 9.725 g, so this means that:

a + b = 9.725 g    (1)

Now that we have this, we can write a relation between the moles of oxygen and the moles of the gases. If we have 1.115 moles of oxygen, and also know the mole ratio of oxygen to "a" and "b", so:

moles O₂ = moles a (moles O₂/moles a) + moles b (moles O₂/moles b)   (2)

And we know that moles a and moles b are:

moles a = a / MW

moles b = b / MW

The MW of a is 30 g/mol and the MW of b is 44 g/mol

Replacing the given data we have:

1.115 moles O₂ = (a/30)(7 moles O₂/2 moles a) + (b/44)(5 moles O₂/1 mole b)

1.115 moles O₂ = (0.1167a) moles O₂ + (0.1136b) moles O₂

To keep solving this, we can use expression (1) to solve for b, and then, replace here and have only one equation with 1 incognite:

a + b = 9.725 g  

b = 9.725 - a   (3)

Replacing above we have:

1.115 = 0.1167a + 0.1136(9.725 - a)

1.115 = 0.1167a + (1.1048 - 0.1136a)

1.115 - 1.1048 = 0.1167a - 0.1136a

0.0102 = 0.0031a

a = 3.29 g

Now, that we have the mass of the ethane, we can calculate the mass percent:

% = (3.29 / 9.725) * 100

% = 33.83%

Hope this helps

how might the biodiversity of a mowed lawn compare to that of huge weedy field?

Answers

Answer: The mowed lawn is the one from where the grasses are removed by using the machines or tools.

Explanation:

The mowed lawn is expected to have low number of species as the grasses may be few or scanty thus can support the population of few species like insects, mice, birds, and small number of grazing animals. On the other hand the weedy field can be hub of insects, reptiles like snakes, small mammals, and large mammals. Large weed field can provide food, and habitat to the large number of species. This will support the increase in biodiversity as compared to the mowed lawn.

How many grams of sulfur must be burned to give 100.0 g of So2

Answers

Answer:

50 g of S are needed

Explanation:

To star this, we begin from the reaction:

S(s) + O₂ (g) →  SO₂ (g)

If we burn 1 mol of sulfur with 1 mol of oxygen, we can produce 1 mol of sulfur dioxide. In conclussion, ratio is 1:1.

According to stoichiometry, we can determine the moles of sulfur dioxide produced.

100 g. 1mol / 64.06g = 1.56 moles

This 1.56 moles were orginated by the same amount of S, according to stoichiometry.

Let's convert the moles to mass

1.56 mol . 32.06g / mol = 50 g

Which one of the following statements best describes electronegativity in atoms?
A) Electronegativity is what happens when an atom gains an electron to become an anion.
B) Electronegativity is the attraction an element's nucleus has for the electrons in a chemical bond
C) Electronegativity is the energy lost when an atom gains an electron
D) Electronegativity is the energy absorbed when an atom loses an electron​

Answers

Answer: B) Electronegativity is the attraction an element's nucleus has for the electrons in a chemical bond

Explanation:

Electronegativity is defined as the property of an element to attract a shared pair of electron towards itself.

When the size of an atom decreases as we move across the period, as the electrons get added to the same shell and the nuclear charge keeps on increasing. Thus the electrons get more tightly held by the nucleus.

As, the size of an element decreases, the valence electrons come near to the nucleus. So, the attraction between the nucleus and the shared pair of electrons increases and thus the electronegativity increases.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since equation we use to compute the heat in a cooling or heating process is:

[tex]Q=mC(T_f-T_i)[/tex]

Whereas we are given the heat, mass, specific heat and initial temperature. Thus, we infer that we need to solve for the final temperature just as shown below:

[tex]T_f=T_i+\frac{Q}{mC}\\\\T_f=1000 K+\frac{-270000J}{1000g*0.385\frac{J}{g*K} } \\\\T_f=298.7 K[/tex]

It is important to notice that the iron release heat as water absorbs it, that is why it is taken negative.

A beaker in your laboratory drawer has an inside diameter of 6.8 cm and a height of 8.9 cm. Using the equation V= arh, calculate the volume of the beaker, expressed in milliliters.

Answers

Answer:

323.22 ml

Explanation:

Given that :

Diameter, d = 6.8cm

Height, h = 8.9cm

V = arh

Recall :

Volume, V = πr²h

Radius, r = diameter / 2 = 6.8 / 2 = 3.4cm

V = π * 3.4^2 * 8.9

V = 323.21961 cm³

Recall:

1ml = 1cm³

Hence,

323.21961 cm³ = 323.21961 ml

Volume = 323.22 ml

Adding 1.56 g of K2SO4 to 6.00 mL of water at 16.2ºC causes the temperature of the solution to drop by 7.70ºC.
How many grams of NaOH (ΔHsoln = –44.3 kJ/mol) would you need to add to raise the temperature back to 16.2ºC?

Answers

Answer:

You need to add 0.243g of NaOH to raise the temperature back to 16.2°C

Explanation:

Using the equation:

Q = C*m*ΔT

Where Q is heat

C is specific heat

m is mass

and ΔT is change in temperature

We can find the heat required to increase the temperature of the solution back to 16.2°C:

Assuming specific heat of the solution of water + K2SO4 = Specific heat of water:

C = 4.184J/g°C

m = 1.56g + 6.00g = 7.56g

ΔT = 16.2°C - 7.70°C = 8.50°C

Q = 4.184J/g°C * 7.56g * 8.50°C

Q = 268.86J = 0.269kJ of heat are required

As this heat is obtained from the dissolution of NaOH:

0.269kJ * (1mol NaOH / 44.3kJ) = 0.00607 moles of NaOH are required

In grams -Molar mass NaOH: 40g/mol-:

0.00607 moles NaOH * (40g / mol) =

You need to add 0.243g of NaOH to raise the temperature back to 16.2°C

Answers

Answer:

The expression to calculate the number of moles reactants is:

n = 59.714 J / 368000 J/mole

Explanation:

Note: The question is missing some parts. The complete question is as follows:

A certain chemical reaction releases 368.kJ of heat energy per mole of reactant consumed. Suppose some moles of the reactant are put into a calorimeter (a device for measuring heat flow). It takes 4.09J of heat energy to raise the temperature of this calorimeter by 1°C. Now the reaction is run until all the reactant is gone, and the temperature of the calorimeter is found to rise by 14.6°C. How would you calculate the number of moles of reactant that were consumed?

Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression.

Also, be sure your answer includes all the correct unit symbols.

Step 1: Determine the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of the calorimeter by 14.6°C

Quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of the calorimeter by 1°C = 4.09 J

Quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of the calorimeter by 14.6°C = 4.09 * 14.6 = 59.714 J

Step 2: Express the quantity of heat released per mole of reactant in J/mole

368 kJ/mole = 368 kJ/mole * 1000 J/kJ = 368000 J/mole

Step 3: Express the moles of reactant as n and equate it to the energy absorbed by the calorimeter

Let the number of moles of reactant be n

Assuming that there is no heat lost to the surrounding, from the law of conservation of energy, Heat released = Heat absorbed

Heat released = number of moles of reactant * quantity of heat released per mole of reactant

Heat released = n * 368000 J/mole

Heat absorbed by calorimeter = 59.714 J

From the relation above, n * 368000 J/mole = 59.714 J

n = 59.714 J / 368000 J/mole

Therefore, the expression to calculate the number of moles is n = 59.714 J / 368000 J/mole
