6 0

No matter how big or little a material is, its properties remain the same. Size, form, color, and mass are the qualities that distinguish a material from non-substances. All of these qualities, including size, shape, color, and mass, can be seen and measured. Some characteristics are physical, while others are chemical. Physical characteristics include mass, volume, density, and color. Viscosity and solubility are examples of chemical qualities.

What is the name for this molecule? 3-heptyne 3-heptene 3-hexyne 3-hexene

sweet-ann [11.9K]

The iupac name of the compound will be hex-3-yne or 3-hexyne. By marking number of carbon in the given compound, it was found that triple bond comes at third position and there are total 6 carbon in the compound. So it will have Hex as a prefix and as it contains triple bond so it will have yne as a suffix and as the triple bond is at third position, so it will be hex-3-yne or 3-hexyne.

Ethyne gas combusts with oxygen gas according to the following reaction: Calculate the volume, in mL of CO2 produced when 73 g o

Bezzdna [24]

Answer: Volume of CO2 is 89127 mL

Explanation: The reaction that takes place is: C2H2 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O

The amount of C2H2 that react allow us to predict the amount of CO2 that will be obtained

$mol CO2 = 73gC2H2 .\frac{1 mol C2H2}{26gC2H2} . \frac{2mol CO2}{4mol C2H2} = 5,6 mol CO2$

26g/1mol is molar mass of C2H2 and 2/4 is the molar relation between CO2 and C2H2 in this reaction. Canceling units, at the end mol of CO2 are obtained

Now with the moles of CO2 and the ideal gases equation is possible to calculate the volumen occupied by the gas.

PV = RnT where P: pressure, V: volume, R: ideal gas constant, n: moles and T: temperature expressed in K (add 273,15 to °C temperature: 37,4°C + 273,15 = 310,55K)

V= RnT/P

$V= \frac{0,08206 atmL/molK . 5,6 mol. 310,55 K}{1,6 atm} =89,127 L$

To express volume in mL multiply the L result by 1000 which equals 89127 mL
