Answer:

0.625 moles of CO₂ can be produced by this reaction.

27.5 g of CO₂

Explanation:

A reaction where CO₂ can be produced is combustion.

The reactants are methane (in this case) and oxygen, while the products will be CO₂ and H₂O.

The balanced reaction is: CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

We assume the oxygen is in excess, so the methane gas, is the limiting reagent.

We convert the mass to moles (mass / molar mass) → 10 g / 16 g/mol = 0.625 moles

According to stoichiometry, 1 mol of methane can produce 1 mol of CO₂. Therefore If we have 0.625 moles of CH₄ we produce 0.625 moles of CO₂. Ratio is 1:1.

Let's convert the moles to mass → (mol . molar mass) =

0.625 mol . 44 g/mol = 27.5 g

How does the electron configuration of elements within the same group compare? (A.) They all have their valence electrons in the

lesya [120]

Answer:

B.They all have their valence electrons in the same type of subshell

Explanation:

The electron configurations of elements in the same group (column) of the periodic table have them in the same type of subshell.
But the subshells may be of different shells. Thus , the energies of them need not be the same.
For example , The Alkalai Metals are found in the first column of the periodic table Group IA. This set of elements all have valence electrons in only the ' $s$ ' orbital and because they are in the first column they all have $s^{1}$ configuration. i.e,

H $1s^1$
Li $1s^2 2s^1$
Na $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1$
K $1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^64s^1$

17. Which of the following describes a condition in which an individual would not hear an echo?

ivanzaharov [21]

<span>The right answer is D. In a situation where the sound wave reaches the ear and the reflected wave reaches the ear less than 0.1 seconds later, the individual would not be able to hear an echo. There needs to a far more significant delay between the sound and the reflection of said sound reaching the listener's ear for the echo effect to become apparent.</span>

Given 50g of sodium how many moles do you have?

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Amount of Na = 2.17moles

Explanation:

Mass of Na = 50g

Molar mass of Na = 23g/mol

Amount of mole = mass/molar mass

Amount of mole = 50/23

Amount of mole = 2.17moles

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The temperature and pressure below which a supercritical fluid exists.

Explanation:

Critical point is a region on the phase diagram where fluid phases (liquids and gases) have the equal density.

This is caused by increased temperature and pressure of the fluid particles in a confided container. Supercritical fluids exist in a state above critical point.

I hope this explanation was clear.
