Answer: 25 moles of oxygen gas will be required for the production of given amount of water.

Explanation:

This is a reaction of combustion of hydrocarbon. Combustion reaction states that when a hydrocarbon reacts with excess of oxygen it results in the formation of carbon dioxide and water.

For the reaction of combustion of hydrocarbon, the equation follows:

$2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

18 moles of water is produced by 25 moles of oxygen gas.

So, 18 moles of water will be produced from = $\frac{25}{18}\times 18=25mol$ of oxygen gas.

Hence, 25 moles of oxygen gas will be required for the production of given amount of water.

There's a slight error in your equation. I think you were trying to present it like this:

2C8H18 + 25O2 -> 16CO2 + 18H2O

Mole Ratio
O2 : H20
25 : 18
? moles : 18 moles
(18/18)×25 : 18 moles

25 moles : 18 moles

Final answer would be 25 moles of O2. :)

Mendeleev positioned elements in the periodic table in increasing order of their atomic numbers, such that elements having identical chemical properties and characteristics plunge into the same group.

What is Mendeleev's periodic table called?

In order to represent similarities and patterns in the behavior of elements, Mendeleev created the periodic table, which is an arrangement of elements in an increasing atomic mass order in tablet form.
Mendeleev stated that "Element characteristics are a periodic function of their atomic weight" in his renowned periodic law.
The Periodic Table of Mendeleev is a table that Mendeleev created to list elements in the order of their atomic weights.

Mendeleev discovered that there were two elements with atomic weights between 65.2 and 75 because he found it very satisfying that the properties of the elements were more similar and closer to this level.
He also imagined having other elements with possessions similar to those of these other elements.
In the periodic table, he left a blank for these two elements until they were finally discovered in their true existence.

15.1 L N2 at 25 °C and 125 kPa and 44.3 L O2 at 25 °C and 125 kPa were transferred to a tank with a volume of 6.25 L. What is th

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The total pressure of the mixture in the tank of volume 6.25 litres at 51°C is 1291.85 kPa.

Explanation:

For N2,

Pressure(P₁)=125 kPa

Volume(V₁)=15·1 L

Temperature (T₁)=25°C=25+273 K=298 K

Similarly, for Oxygen,

Pressure(P₂)= 125 kPa

Volume(V₂)= 44.3 L

Temperature(T₂)=25°C= 298 K

Then, for the mixture,

Volumeof the mixture( V)= 6.25 L

Pressure(P)=?

Temperature (T)= 51°C = 51+273 K=324 K

Then, By Combined gas laws,

$\frac{P_{1} V_{1} }{T_{1} } +\frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{T_{2} } =\frac{PV}{T}$

or, $\frac{15.1*125}{298} +\frac{44.3*125}{298} =\frac{P*6.25}{324}$

or, $6.34+18.58=\frac{P*6.25}{324}$

or, $P=\frac{24.92*324}{6.25}$

∴P=1291.85 kPa

So the total pressure of the mixture in the tank of volume 6.25 litres at 51°C is 1291.85 kPa.

If the spin of one electron in an orbital is clockwise, what is the spin of the other electron in that orbital?

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The other electron must have anticlockwise spin.

Explanation:

According to the pauli exclusion principle, the two elecrton present in same orbital must have opposite spin.

If the one electron is clockwise the other must be in anti clockwise direction. The clockwise direction is represented by the sign +1/2 while anti clockwise direction is represented by -1/2.

According the pauli principle, the two electrons must have different fourth electronic quantum number. The electron in same orbital have same first three quantum number i.e, n=1 l=0 and ml =0 in case of first subshell.
