The percent yield of carbon dioxide will be 49.0 %.

<h3>Percent yield</h3>

First, let's look at the equation of the reaction:

2C_8H_1_8 + 25O_2 -- > 16CO_2 + 18H_2O

The mole ratio of octane to oxygen is 2:25.

Mole of 3.43 g octane = 3.43/114.23 = 0.03 mol

Mole of 19.1 g oxygen = 19.1/32 = 0.60 mol

Thus, octane is limiting.

Mole ratio of octane to carbon dioxide = 2:16.

Equivalent mole of carbon dioxide = 0.03 x 8 = 0.24 mol

Mass of 0.24 mol carbon dioxide = 0.24 x 44.01 = 10.5624 grams

Percent yield of carbon dioxide = 5.18/10.5624 = 49.0 %

Answer:

The answer to your question is

                                        4C₇H₁₇  + 45 O₂    ⇒   28 CO₂   +  34H₂O  

Explanation:

Write the equation

                                        C₇H₁₇  +    O₂    ⇒    CO₂   +    H₂O  

Process

1.- Check if the equation is balanced

                                 Reactants            Element              Products

                                        7                          C                           1

                                       17                          H                          2

                                        2                          O                          3

As the number of reactants and products is different, we conclude that the reaction is unbalanced.

2.- Write a coefficient "7" to CO₂   and a coefficient of 17/2 to H₂O

                                      C₇H₁₇  +    O₂    ⇒   7CO₂   +  \frac{17}{2}H₂O  

                                 Reactants            Element              Products

                                        7                          C                           7

                                       17                          H                          17

                                        2                          O                          51/2

3.- Write a coefficient of 45/2 to the O₂, and multiply all the equation by 2.

                         4C₇H₁₇  + 45 O₂    ⇒   28 CO₂   +  34H₂O  

                  Reactants            Element              Products

                        28                          C                        28

                        68                          H                        68

                        90                          O                        90

When aluminium and chlorine compared , which has smaller atomic size ? Why ?​
Zielflug [23.3K]
Chlorine has a smaller atomic size.
Explanation: As you move towards right of the periodic table, the atomic size decreases. This is because the number of protons is increasing towards the right of the periodic table, which applies a greater inward force on the electrons. that is why the elements on the right of the periodic table have a smaller atomic size when compared to the elements on the left. Since chlorine is on the right side of aluminium, it has a smaller atomic size.

What initially forms as pale blue and pale green precipitate when nh3 is added to cuh2o6?
andre [41]
The chemical equation that shows the reaction between nh3 and cuh206 is detailed as: [Cu(H2O)6]2+ (aq) + 2NH3(aq). —> [Cu(OH)2(H2O)4](s) + 2NH4 + (aq). the blue precipitate is Cu(OH)2(H2O)4 in which the blue color is caused by the Cu present in the solid.
