Answer:
C₃H₈₍g₎ + 5O₂₍g₎→ 3CO₂₍g₎ + 4H₂O₍l₎
Explanation:
Propane is an alkane that burns in enough oxygen to produce carbon (iv) Oxide and heat as the only by products. Balancing the equation: The number of atoms of each kind on either side should be equal. Hydrogen on the left has eight atoms same as the right side after balancing, oxygen has 10 while carbon has 3 on each side.
Answer: E. Occurs when methane gas is burned.
Explanation:
A chemical change occurs when matter undergoes a change to form a new substance with different chemical properties, and the reaction is usually not reversible.
In the case of burning methane gas (CH4) ,oxygen and methane are the reactants, while the new substance formed from the reaction are carbondioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) .
Answer:
a) 4869 kj will be released
b) 43.86 g of octane
Explanation:
The heat of combustion is the amount of heat released when one mole of a substance reacts with enough oxygen
since the heat of combustion is per mol of combustible substancewjat we are required to do in this problem is calculate number moles in the reactions although in a different manner
a) MW C3H6O = 158 g/ mol
mol C3H6O = 158 g × 1 mol/ 58.08 g
= 2.72 - 1790 kj / mol ×2.72 mol = 4869 kj
b) Here we are asked the mass of octane to produce 1950 kj of heat knowing that per mole of octane we get 5074.1 kj then
1 mol / 5074.1kj × 1950 kj= 0.384 mol
mass C8H18 = 0.384 mol × 114.23 g/ mol = 43.86 g
