Answer:

24.0 g C₃H₈

Explanation:

To find the mass of C₃H₈, you need to (1) convert grams CO/H₂ to moles CO/H₂ (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles CO/H₂ to moles C₃H₈ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles C₃H₈ to grams C₃H₈ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs in the given values.

Molar Mass (CO): 12.011 g/mol + 15.998 g/mol

Molar Mass (CO): 28.009 g/mol

Molar Mass (H₂): 2(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (H₂): 2.016 g/mol

Molar Mass (C₃H₈): 3(12.011 g/mol) + 8(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₃H₈): 44.097 g/mol

3 CO + 7 H₂ ----> 1 C₃H₈ + 3 H₂O
^           ^              ^

45.8 g CO           1 mole              1 mole C₃H₈          44.097 g
-----------------  x  ------------------  x  --------------------  x  ------------------  =
                           28.009 g           3 moles CO            1 mole

=  24.0 g C₃H₈

87.3 g H₂           1 mole           1 mole C₃H₈          44.097 g
----------------  x  ---------------  x  ---------------------  x  -----------------  =  
                          2.016 g           7 moles H₂             1 mole

=  273 g C₃H₈

It was necessary to find the mass of the products from both of the reactants because you did not know which one was the limiting reagent. The limiting reagent is the reactant which is completely used up first. Because CO produced the smaller amount of product, it must be the limiting reagent. Therefore, the actual amount of C₃H₈ produced is 24.0 grams.

What does n, l and s mean in chemistry?
kirill [66]

Answer:

These three numbers, n, ℓ, and s can be used to describe an electron in a stable atom.

Explanation:

Each electron's quantum numbers are unique and cannot be shared by another electron in that atom. This property is called the Pauli Exclusion Principle.

Hope this helps!!! :)))

How many liters of water vapor are in 36.21 g?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

45.02 L.

Explanation:  

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of water vapor.
  • n = mass / molar mass = (36.21 g) / (18.0 g/mol) = 2.01 mol.
  • We can calculate the volume of knowing that 1.0 mole of a gas at STP occupies 22.4 L.

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>

1.0 mole of CO occupies → 22.4 L.

2.01 mole of CO occupies → ??? L.

∴ The volume of water vapor in 36.21 g = (22.4 L)(2.01 mole) / (1.0 mole) = 45.02 L.

Consider a 0.70 M solution of HOCl. If the molarity was decreased to 0.3 M, what would happen to the percent dissociation?
melomori [17]

Answer:

The percent dissociation would increase

Explanation:

Percent dissociation is the ratio of amount dissociated to the initial concentration.

Decreasing the concentration of the solution leads to an increase in percent dissociation.
