<u>Answer</u>

So this is the reaction that happens. 
<span>C4H10 + O2 = CO2 + H2O </span>

<span>Balanced, it is </span>
<span>2C4H10 + 8O2 = 8CO2 + 10H2O </span>

<span>Given 1 kg or 1000 g of butane, use stoichiometry aka factor labeling aka conversions and mole ratios to get to grams of oxygen. </span>

<span>I'll do an example. Let's form water. Hydrogen is diatomic too. </span>
<span>2H2 + O2 = 2H2O </span>

<span>Given 1000 g of Hydrogen, I need to know how many grams of oxygen to use. To convert grams to moles,
I know that 1 mol of H2 equals 2.02 g. Then, for every mole of O2, there are 2 moles of H2. Then converting moles of O2 to grams, I know that one mole of it equals 32 grams. </span>
<span>[1000 g H2] x [1 mol H2/2.02 g H2] x [1 mol O2/2 mol H2] x [32 g O2/1 mol O2] </span>

<span>My answer would be  7.9 kg </span>

What is the pH of a solution that is 0.40 M NaBrO and 0.50 M HBrO (hypobromous acid) (Ka for HBrO = 2.3 x 10^-9)
Pie

Answer

pH=8.5414

Procedure

The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a chemical solution of a weak acid to the numerical value of the acid dissociation constant, Kₐ. In this equation, [HA] and [A⁻] refer to the equilibrium concentrations of the conjugate acid-base pair used to create the buffer solution.

pH = pKa + log₁₀ ([A⁻] / [HA])

Where

pH = acidity of a buffer solution

pKa = negative logarithm of Ka

Ka =acid disassociation constant

[HA]= concentration of an acid

[A⁻]= concentration of conjugate base

First, calculate the pKa

pKa=-log₁₀(Ka)= 8.6383

Then use the equation to get the pH (in this case the acid is HBrO)

pH=8.6383+\log_{10}(\frac{0.40\text{ M}}{0.50\text{ M}})=8.5414

2. How many grams of water can be heated from 20.0 oC to 75oC using 12500.0 Joules?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer;

  = 0.054 kg or 54 g

Explanation;

Using the equation; Q = mcΔT where Q is the quantity of heat transferred, m is the mass, c is specific heat of the substance, ΔT is delta T, the change in temperature.  

ΔT = 75 - 20 = 55 C.  

Solve the equation for m  

m = Q/ cΔT

Mass = 12500 / (55 × 4200)

        = 0.054 kg or 54 g

Pick the correct statement for the following isotope: a. 42Ca 42 is the mass number and 20 is the atomic number. b. 42 is the nu
kramer

Answer:

A

Explanation:

To label an element correctly using a combination of the symbol, mass number and atomic number furnishes some important information about the element.

We can obtain these information from the element provided that correct labeling of the element is presented. Firstly, after writing the symbol of the element, the atomic number is placed as a subscript on the left while the mass number of the atomic mass is placed as a superscript on the same left.

Looking at the question asked, we have the element symbol in the correct position as Ca, with 42 also in the correct position which is the mass number. The third number which is 20 is thus the atomic number of the element.
