Combustion of hexane can be illustrated by the following reaction:
2C6H14 + 19O2 ...........> 12CO2 + 14H2O

From the periodic table:
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams

Therefore:
molar mass of hexane = 6(12)+14(1) = 86 grams
mass of water = 2(1)+16 = 18 grams

From the balanced equation above:
2(86) = 172 grams of hexane produce 252 grams of water. To know the amount of water produced from 1.33 grams of hexane, all you have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of water = (1.33x252) / 172 = 1.9486 grams

Write the simple equation that describes the action of the enzyme catalase.
Nataly [62]

Here we have to write a simple equation which describes the action of the enzyme catalase.

The equation is: The concentration of the complex [ES] = \frac{[E]0}{1+\frac{Km}{[S]} }

Let us consider an enzyme catalyses reaction E + S ⇄ ES → E + P

Where E, S, ES and P are enzyme, substrate, complex and product respectively.

The concentration of the complex [ES] = \frac{[E]0}{1+\frac{Km}{[S]} }, where K_{m} is the Michaelis constant.

[E]₀ and [S] is the initial concentration of enzyme and concentration of substrate respectively.

The elements lithium and oxygen react explosively to from lithium oxide (Li2O). How much lithium oxide will form if 3.03 mol of
lianna [129]
The reaction equation:
2Li + O → Li₂O

Molar ratio of Li to Li₂O is:
2 : 1
So if 3.03 moles of Li are present:
2/1 = 3.03 / x
x = 1.515 moles of Li₂O will be produced.

A student compares the boiling point of substances having different intermolecular forces. which dependent variable did the stud
Gwar [14]

A student compares the boiling point of substances having different intermolecular forces. <u>Boiling points of various substances</u> is the dependent variable that student most likely use.

<h3>Does the nature of intermolecular forces present in different substance affect their boiling points?</h3>

The boiling point of a substance is proportional to the strength of its intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling point, the stronger the intermolecular forces. We can compare the strengths of intermolecular forces by comparing the boiling points of different substances.

<h3>What properties are affected by intermolecular forces?</h3>

Intermolecular forces are measured by boiling points.

Intermolecular forces increase as bond polarization increases.

Ionic > hydrogen bonding > dipole dipole > dispersion is the order of the strength of intermolecular forces (and thus their impact on boiling points).

<h3>How can you determine strong and weak intermolecular forces?</h3>

Substances with strong intermolecular forces are very attracted to one another and are held together tightly. These substances require a great deal of energy to separate, whereas substances with weak intermolecular forces are held together very loosely and have weak interactions.
