41.4 grams of oxygen is essentially required for complete combustion of 3 moles of butane gas.

<h3>What is combustion?</h3>
  • Combustion is a chemical reaction that often involves the presence of oxygen and produces heat and light in the form of flames.
  • Because of the nature of the chemical reaction and the fact that more energy is produced than can be released into the surrounding medium, the rate or speed at which the reactants combine is high.
  • As a result, the temperature of the reactants is increased, accelerating the process even further.

As you know, combustion reaction is a chemical reaction in which a substance reacts with the atmospheric oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide and water. Therefore, balanced combustion reaction of butane (C₄H₁₀) will be as follows:

C₄H₁₀+\frac{13}{2}O₂→4CO₂+5H₂O

You can observe in the above reaction that, \frac{13}{2} moles of oxygen are required for combustion of 1 mole of butane.

Therefore, going by unitary method, for complete combustion of 3 moles of butane, (\frac{13}{2}×0.398) moles of oxygen would be required.

Now, we know, number of moles = \frac{Given mass}{Molar mass}

Molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol

We need to find a given mass which is the mass of oxygen required when the number of moles is equal to 2.59.

Thus, given mass of oxygen or mass of oxygen required = number of moles of oxygen × molar mass of oxygen

Mass of oxygen required = 2.59 moles × 16 g/mol = 41.4 g.

Hence, 41.4 grams of oxygen is essentially required for complete combustion of 3 moles of butane gas.

How many atoms are there in 4.13 moles of nickel (Ni)
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Ni= ?

Number of moles of Ni = 4.13 mol

Solution:

we will calculate the number of atoms of Ni by using  Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

4.13 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ atoms /1 mol

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni
