When menthol, CH3OH, is burned in the presence of oxygen gas, O2, a large amount of heat energy is released. For this reason, it

is often used as a fuel in high performance racing cars. The combination of methanol has the balanced, thermochemical equation CH3OH(g) + 3/2O2(g) — CO2(g) + 2H2O(1) DeltaH= -764Kj How much methanol, in grams, must be found to produce 701 kj of heat?

We have the following balanced equation:

CH_3OH_{(g)}+\frac{3}{2}O_{2\text{ (g)}}\rightarrow CO_{2\text{ (g)}}+2H_2O_{(l)}

They also give us the heat of reaction equal to -764 kJ, i.e. it is an exothermic reaction.

By observing the reaction, we can deduce that for this heat to be generated, one mole of methanol is needed. Now let's see how many grams that mole of methanol equals. We will use the molecular weight equal to 32.04 g/mol

\begin{gathered} g\text{ of methanol = 1 mol }\times\text{ 32.04 g/mol} \\ g\text{ of methanol }=\text{ 32.04 g} \end{gathered}

Now we know the grams of methanol that generate 764 kJ, because the heat of reaction is directly proportional to the mass of the reactants, we can apply a rule of three to know the grams needed to produce a heat of reaction equal to 701 kJ:

\begin{gathered} \frac{32.04\text{ g of methanol}}{764\text{ kJ}}=\text{ }\frac{x\text{ g of methanol}}{701\text{ kJ}} \\ x\text{ g of methanol = }\frac{32.04\text{ g of methanol }\times\text{ 701 kJ}}{764\text{ kJ}} \\ g\text{ of methanol = 29.4 g} \end{gathered}

So, 29.4 g of methanol must be found to produce 701 kJ of heat

How many grams nano3 add to 500g of h20 prepare solution .5 molal nano3?
Scilla [17]
Answer is: mass of sodium nitrate is 21,25 g.
m(H₂O) = 500 g · 1 kg/1000 g = 0,5 kg.
b(solution) = 0,500 m = 0,500 mol/kg.
m(NaNO₃) = ?
b(solution) = n(NaNO₃) ÷ m(H₂O).
n(NaNO₃) = 0,500 mol/kg · 0,5 kg.
n(NaNO₃) = 0,25 mol.
m(NaNO₃) = n(NaNO₃) · M(NaNO₃).
m(NaNO₃) = 0,25 mol · 85 g/mol.
m(NaNO₃) = 21,25 g.

What is cloud ? How does it affect on weather ?​
Lapatulllka [165]

Clouds are xondense form of water vapour over dust particles present in the upper atmosphere.

It effects the weather as when the clouds get heavy they get precipitate in the form pf rain, snow, hail. because of these factors temperature goes down and make us feel cold.

nika2105 [10]

1. Double replacement (DR)

2. Decomposition (D)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

1. Al2(SO4)3 + Ca3(PO4)2 -> 2AIPO4 + 3CaSO4

Double replacement (DR) : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

General form :

AB + CD -> AD + CB

2.  2NaCIO3 → 2NaCl + 3O2

Decomposition (D) : Reactant breakdown into simpler ones(reverse of combination)

General form :

AB ---> A + B

Identify any solutes and solvents present in a mixture of 0.05 mol ethanol, 1 liter water, and 0.2 g hydrogen
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Water is the solvent

Both the ethanol and the hydrogen peroxide are the solute

Explanation:

Both the hydrogen peroxide and ethanol are sisobable in water.

There are 0.05 moles of ethanol.

1 litreof water contains 55.55 moles of water.

0.2 g of hydrogen peroxide contains 0.2/34 = 0.0059 moles of hydrogen peroxide (the 34 is the molar mass of hydrogen peroxide).

Since there are more moles of water, water becomes the solvent and the other two liquids dissolve in it.
