What volume (in L) of oxygen will be required to produce 77.4 L of water vapor in the reaction below?

Inga [223]

Answer:

90.3 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water produced = 77.4 L

Volume of oxygen required = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

It is known that,

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

There are 6 moles of water = 6×22.414 = 134.5 L

Now we will compare:

H₂O : O₂

134.5 : 156.9

77.4 : 156.9/134.5×77.4 =90.3 L

So for the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.

g Select the correct statements. I. Reduction is the loss of electrons, and oxidation is the gain of electrons II. Reduction is

Karolina [17]

Answer: The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. Here, the oxidation state of the substance decreases.

$X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X$

Oxidizing agents are the agents that helps in the oxidation of other substance and itself gets reduced. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. Here, oxidation state of the substance increases.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

Reducing agents are the agents that helps in the reduction of the other substance and itself gets oxidized. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Oxidation state is the number which is given to an atom when it looses or gains electron. It is written as a superscript. In a compound, the total charge is equal to the sum of the charges of all atoms in that compound. For Example: In $MnO_4^-$ , manganese has +7 oxidation number and oxygen has -2.
