Calculate the mass of water produced when 6.97 g of butane reacts with excess oxygen

Chemistry

The balanced reaction equation for the combustion of butane is as follows;
C₄H₁₀ + 13/2O₂ ---> 4CO₂ + 5H₂O 
the limiting reactant in this reaction is C₄H₁₀  This means that all the butane moles are consumed and amount of product formed depends on the amount of C₄H₁₀ used up.
stoichiometry of C₄H₁₀ to H₂O is 1:5
mass of butane used - 6.97 g
number of moles - 6.97 g / 58 g/mol = 0.12 mol
then the number of water moles produced - 0.12 mol x 5 = 0.6 mol
Therefore mass of water produced - 0.6 mol x 18 g/mol = 10.8 g

Predict the effect of adding a non competitive inhibitor to the reaction mixture on the rate of reaction at a high substrate con
Darya [45]

Answer:

A noncompetitive inhibitor can only bind to an enzyme with or without a substrate at several places at a particular point in time

Explanation:

this is because It changes the conformation of an enzyme as well as its active site, which makes the substrate unable to bind to the enzyme effectively so that the efficiency of the enzyme decreases. A noncompetitive inhibitor binds to the enzyme away from the active site, altering/distorting the shape of the enzyme so that even if the substrate can bind, the active site functions less effectively and most of the time also the inhibitor is reversible

Which term describes the molecule shown below h-c-c-h ethyne c2h2?
Andru [333]
Ethyne also known as Acetylene and is the simplest Alkyne belonging to  Unsaturated Hydrocarbons. It contains triple bond between two carbon atoms in a molecule. Carbon atoms in Acetylene are sp Hybridized and has a linear shape with bond angle of 180° is present between C-C-H bonds. This compound is also called as Binary Compound because it is made up of two elements i.e. Carbon and Hydrogen. The terminal Hydrogen in Acetylene is slightly Acidic in nature, and this compound can donate terminal proton to any strong base. These compounds generally give Electrophillic Addition Reactions.

An environmental scientist developed a new analytical method for the determination of cadmium (cd^2+) in mussels. To validate th
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The method is accurate  in the calculation of the Cu^+2

Explanation:

As a first step we have to calculate the <u>average concentration </u>of Cu^+2 find it by the method.

\frac{0.782+0.762+0.825+0.838+0.761 }{5} =0.79 ppm

Then we have to find the<u> standard deviation:</u>

s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{N-1}\sum_{i=1}^N(x_i-\bar{x})^2}=0.0359

For the confidence interval we have to use the formula:

μ=Average±\frac{t*s}{\sqrt{n} }

Where:

t=t student constant with 95 % of confidence and 5 data=2.78

μ= 0.79  ±  \frac{2.78*0.0359}{\sqrt{5} }

upper limit:  0.84

lower limit: 0.75

If we compare the limits of the value obtanied by the method (Figure 1 Red line) with the reference material (Figure 1 blue line) we can see that the values obtained by the method are within the values suggested by the reference material. So, it's method is accurate.
