Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 15.33 grams ethanol could be obtained from 30 grams of glucose.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

C₆H₁₂O₆  → 2 C₂H₅OH + 2 CO₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole  
  • C₂H₅OH: 2 moles
  • CO₂: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 180 g/mole
  • C₂H₅OH: 46 g/mole
  • CO₂: 44 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole ×180 g/mole= 180 grams
  • C₂H₅OH: 2 moles ×46 g/mole= 92 grams
  • CO₂: 2 moles ×44 g/mole= 88 grams

<h3>Mass of C₂H₅OH formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 180 grams of glucose form 92 grams of ethanol, 30 grams of glucose form how much mass of ethanol?

mass of ethanol=\frac{30 grams of glucosex 92 grams of ethanol}{180 grams of glucose}

<u><em>mass of ethanol= 15.33 grams</em></u>

Then, 15.33 grams ethanol could be obtained from 30 grams of glucose.

The information below describes a redox reaction.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Al°(s)  + 3Ag⁺(aq) => Al⁺³(aq) + 3Ag(s)

Explanation:

Oxidation:                            Al°(s) =>   Al⁺³(aq) + 3e⁻

Reduction:           3Ag⁺(aq) + 3e⁻ => 3Ag°(s)

_________________________________________

Net Rxn:           Al°(s)  + 3Ag⁺(aq) => Al⁺³(aq) + 3Ag(s)

One mole of neutral aluminum atoms (Al°(s)) undergo oxidation delivering 3 moles  of electrons to 3 moles silver ions (3Ag⁺³(aq)) that are reduced to 3 moles of neutral silver atoms (3Ag°(s)) in basic standard state 25°C; 1atm.

Between magnesium and calcium, which has the highest ionization energy, and why?
quester [9]

Answer:

magnesium

Explanation:

magnesium has fewer valence shells meaning that the protons have a stronger hold on the electrons and it would take more energy to remove an electron to create an ion.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Because heat causes alcohol to volatilize, instead of burning it.

The combustion is not fulfilled since this is detached from the surface of the banknote that would be the necessary product to burn, in addition to considering that the necessary temperature is not reached

Explanation:

When water and alcohol are joined, they form a solution with high evaporation power, plus alcohol that has a higher degree of volatility than water, this is how these liquids are not retained on the surface of the banknote with heat and they are not it burns.
