Answer:

6.4 L

Explanation:

When all other variables are held constant, you can use Boyle's Law to find the missing volume:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

In this equation, "P₁" and "V₁" represent the initial pressure and volume. "P₂" and "V₂" represent the final pressure and volume. You can find the theoretical volume by plugging the given values into the equation and simplifying.

P₁ = 3.2 atm P₂ = 1.0 atm

V₁ = 2.0 L V₂ = ? L

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ <----- Boyle's Law

(3.2 atm)(2.0 L) = (1.0 atm)V₂ <----- Insert values

6.4 = (1.0 atm)V₂ <----- Simplify left side

6.4 = V₂ <----- Divide both sides by 1.0

Determine the mass of carbon iv oxide ,produced on burning 104g of ethyne

mars1129 [50]

163 grams (3 sig. fig.).

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Formula of <em>carbon(IV) oxide</em> (a.k.a. carbon dioxide): $\text{CO}_2$ .
Molar mass of $\text{CO}_2$ : $\underbrace{12.01}_{\text{C}} + 2\times\underbrace{16.00}_{\text{O}}=44.01\;\text{g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ .

Formula of ethyne: structural $\text{H}-\text{C}\equiv\text{C}-\text{H}$ or molecular $\text{C}_2\text{H}_2$ .
Molar mass of $\text{C}_2\text{H}_2$ : $2\times\underbrace{12.01}_{\text{C}}+2 \times\underbrace{16.00}_{\text{O}} = 56.02\;\text{g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ .

All carbon atoms in that 104 grams of ethyne will end up in $\text{CO}_2$ . Number of moles of molecules in 104 grams of ethyne:

$n = \dfrac{m}{M} = \dfrac{104}{56.02} = 1.85648\;\text{mol}$ .

There are two carbon atoms in each ethyne molecule. Number of carbon atoms in that many ethyne molecules:

$n(\text{C}) = 2\;n(\text{C}_2\text{H}_2) = 3.71296\;\text{mol}$ .

There are one carbon atom in each $\text{CO}_2$ molecule. In case oxygen is in excess, all those carbon atoms from that 104 grams of ethyne will make $n(\text{CO}_2) = n(\text{C}) =3.71296\;\text{mol}$ of $\text{CO}_2$ .

Mass of all those $\text{CO}_2$ molecules:

$m = n\cdot M = 163\;\text{g}$ . (3 sig. fig. as in the mass of ethyne.)

Which are examples of dynamic equilibrium

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:Dynamic Equilibrium Examples. Any reaction will be in dynamic equilibrium if it's reversible and the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. For example, say that you prepare a solution that is saturated with an aqueous solution of NaCl.

1. Swimming pool manufacturers recommend maintaining the

Viefleur [7K]

A 3.4 × 10⁶ L swimming pool must have a mass of 1.0 × 10⁷ mg Cl₂ to maintain a concentration of 3.0 ppm.

"ppm" of "parts per million" is a unit of concentration equivalent to milligrams of solute per liters of solution.

A pool must maintain a chlorine concentration of 3.0 ppm (3.0 mg/L). The mass of chlorine in 3.4 × 10⁶ L is:

3.0 mg Cl₂/L × 3.4 × 10⁶ L = 1.0 × 10⁷ mg Cl₂

A 3.4 × 10⁶ L swimming pool must have a mass of 1.0 × 10⁷ mg Cl₂ to maintain a concentration of 3.0 ppm.

A student observes the combustion (burning) of propane (C3H8). Because of the heat and light it generates, the student concludes

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The student's conclusion is not correct

Explanation:

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a reaction to occur. All reactions require there activation energy to be met before the reaction can proceed. When the temperature of a reaction is increased, the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules increases; colliding more with each other, which makes them "surmount" the activation energy of the reaction faster as compared to a lower temperature.

In combustion, there is burning of an hydrocarbon (in this case propane) in excess oxygen. The burning assists in increasing the kinetic energy of the reactant particles which in turn easily surmounts the activation energy of the reaction by colliding (effective collision) more with oxygen. So, the reaction has an activation energy but the activation energy has been met and passed and hence the reaction is proceeding faster.

Increasing the temperature of a reaction is one of the ways of increasing the rate of a chemical reaction.
