Answer:

0.625 moles of CO2

Explanation:

Remark

The equation used (I take it) is a hydrocarbon burning. If it is not, leave a note on the question. The method I will use is

Find the moles CH4
Use the equation to adjust the number of moles of the product. It the balance numbers are the same, move on.

Equation

CH4 + 2O2 ====> CO2 + 2H2O

Givens

10 grams CH4

Solution

Number of moles of CH4

mol CH4 = given mass / molar mass.

given mass = 10 grams

molar mass CH4

C = 12
H = 4 * 1 <u> 4</u>
molar mass 16

Moles of CH4

mol = given mass / molar mass

mol = 10 grams / 16 grams

mol = 0.625

Answer

Since the number of moles of CO2 and CH4 are the <u><em>same </em></u>in the balanced equation. the answer is 0.625 mols of both.

A student wants to make a 5.00%solution of rubidium chloride using 0.377g of the substance. what mass of water will be needed to

Alenkasestr [34]

The mass of water that will be needed to make the solution is calculated as below

% solution = mass of the solute/mass of the solvent(water) x100

% solution = 5% = 5/100
mass of the solute =0.377 g
mass of the solvent = ?

let the mass of the solvent be represented by Y

= 5/100 =0.377/y

by cross multiplication

5y= 37.7
divide both side by 5

y =7.54 grams

How many atoms are in 0.625 moles of ge (atomic mass = 72.59 amu)?

lord [1]

0.625 moles of ge X 6.02x10^23 atoms/ 1 mol of ge equal to 3.76x10^23 atoms of ge, just times with Avogadro.

My Everest is the highest mountain on earth.its height is 8.848 km. Convert this height to feet. Write your answer in standard n

Vinvika [58]

Answer: $2.9(10)^{7} ft$

Explanation:

Firstly we need to know that $1 km=3280.84 ft$ , then we cam make the conversion:

$8848 km \frac{3280.84 ft}{1 km}=29,028,872.32 ft$ This is the height of Mount Everest in feet

However, we can express it using scientific notation by counting to the left the decimal spaces:

$29,028,872.32 ft \approx 2.9(10)^{7} ft$

A voltaic cell has a zinc anode and a copper cathode. They are connected by a wire but no salt bridge. What can you predict will

Allisa [31]

The prediction is that B. The electrons will flow to the zinc anode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction.

This is known as a chemical element, of the periodic table, that is essential to life and is one of the most widely used metals. Zinc is of considerable commercial importance.

Without the salt bridge, positive and negative charges will build up around the electrodes causing the reaction to stop.

Hence, we know that the purpose of the salt bridge is to keep the solutions electrically neutral and allow the free flow of ions from one cell to another.
