Methane gas, which may be present in confined spaces such as a basement, can cause death by __________.
stiks02 [169]

Methane gas, which may be present in confined spaces such as a basement, can cause death by asphyxiation.

<h3>What are the dangers of methane gas in confined space?</h3>

Low amounts are safe for inhalation. A significant amount can replace oxygen in the atmosphere. Reduced oxygen availability can cause symptoms like weariness, emotional instability, fast breathing, and rapid heart rate. Insufficient oxygen can cause nausea, vomiting, collapse, convulsions, coma. The onset of symptoms is accelerated by physical activity. Organs including the heart and brain can suffer long-term damage from a lack of oxygen.

Contact with Skin: Not irritating. The skin might become chilled or frozen when in direct touch with the liquid gas (frostbite). Itching and numbness are signs of mild frostbite. Burning and rigidity are signs of more serious frostbite.

No evidence of carcinogenicity.

When octane (C8H18) is burned in the presence of oxygen, the yield of products (carbon dioxide and water) is 87%. What mass of c
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

14.5g of CO₂ are produced

Explanation:

The reaction of octane with oxygen is:

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

<em>Where 1 mole of octane (Molar mass: 114.23g/mol) reacts with 25/2 moles of O₂ (Molar mass 32g/mol) to produce 8 moles of CO₂ and 9 moles of water.</em>

When 21.0 g of octane is burned with 19.0 g of oxygen gas you need to find <em>limiting reactant </em>to find how many moles of products are formed:

Octane: 21.0g ₓ (1mol / 114.23g) = 0.184 moles octane

Oxygen: 19.0g ₓ (1 mol / 32g) = 0.594 moles oxygen

For a complete reaction of 0.184 moles of octane you will need:

0.184 moles C₈H₁₈ ₓ (25/2 moles O₂ / 1 mole C₈H₁₈) = <em>2.3 moles of oxygen</em>

As you have just 0.594 moles of oxygen, <em>Oxygen is limiting reactant.</em>

Based on chemical equation, 25/2 of O₂ produce 8 moles of CO₂, that means theoretical yield of CO₂ with 0.594 moles of O₂ is:

0.594 moles O₂ ₓ (8 moles CO₂ / 25/2 moles O₂) = 0.380 moles of CO₂

But, as yield of products is 87%, moles produced of CO₂ are:

0.380 moles of CO₂ ₓ 87% = 0.331 moles CO₂ are produced.

As molar mass of CO₂ is 44g/mol, mass of CO₂ in 0.331 moles is:

0.331 moles CO₂ ₓ (44g / mol) =

<h3>14.5g of CO₂ are produced</h3>

Enough of a monoprotic acid is dissolved in water to produce a 1.64 M solution. The pH of the resulting solution is 2.82 . Calcu
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Ka = 1.39x10⁻⁶

Explanation:

A monoprotic acid, HX, will be in equilibrium in an aqueous medium such as:

HX(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + X⁻(aq)

<em>Where Ka is:</em>

Ka = [H⁺] [X⁻] / [HX]

<em>Where [] is the molar concentration in equilibrium of each specie. </em>

The equilibrium is reached when some HX reacts producing H+ and X-, that is:

[HX] = 1.64M - X

[H⁺] = X

[X⁻] = X

As pH is 2.82 = -log [H⁺]:

[H⁺] = 1.51x10⁻³M:

[HX] = 1.64M - 1.51x10⁻³M = 1.638M

[H⁺] = 1.51x10⁻³M

[X⁻] = 1.51x10⁻³M

And Ka is:

Ka = [1.51x10⁻³M] [1.51x10⁻³M] / [1.638M]

<h3>Ka = 1.39x10⁻⁶</h3>

Magnesium hydroxide, the active ingredient in milk of magnesia, neutralizes stomach acid, primarily hcl, according to the reacti
Tema [17]
For every 1 molecule of Magnesium hydroxide or Mg(OH)2 there will be 2 molecules of HCl neutralized.
If molar mass of magnesium hydroxide is 58.3197g/mol, the amount of mol in 5.50 g magnesium hydroxide should be: 5.50g/ (<span>58.3197g/mol)= 0.0943mol.
Then, the amount of HCl molecule neutralized would be: 2* </span>0.0943mol= 0.18861 mol

If molar mass of HCl is 36.46094 g/mol, the mass of the molecule would be: 0.18861 mol* 36.46094g/mol = 6.88grams
