Answer:
Alkanes naturally occur in crude oil and are a major component of many fuels and solvents derived from petroleum
This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.
Answer:
1.65 L
Explanation:
The equation for the reaction is given as:
A + B ⇄ C
where;
numbers of moles = 0.386 mol C (g)
Volume = 7.29 L
Molar concentration of C = 
= 0.053 M
A + B ⇄ C
Initial 0 0 0.530
Change +x +x - x
Equilibrium x x (0.0530 - x)
![K = \frac{[C]}{[A][B]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BC%5D%7D%7B%5BA%5D%5BB%5D%7D)
where
K is given as ; 78.2 atm-1.
So, we have:
![78.2=\frac{[0.0530-x]}{[x][x]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=78.2%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5B0.0530-x%5D%7D%7B%5Bx%5D%5Bx%5D%7D)


Using quadratic formula;

where; a = 78.2 ; b = 1 ; c= - 0.0530
=
or 
=
or 
= 0.0204 or -0.0332
Going by the positive value; we have:
x = 0.0204
[A] = 0.0204
[B] = 0.0204
[C] = 0.0530 - x
= 0.0530 - 0.0204
= 0.0326
Total number of moles at equilibrium = 0.0204 + 0.0204 + 0.0326
= 0.0734
Finally, we can calculate the volume of the cylinder at equilibrium using the ideal gas; PV =nRT
if we make V the subject of the formula; we have:

where;
P (pressure) = 1 atm
n (number of moles) = 0.0734 mole
R (rate constant) = 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K
T = 273.15 K (fixed constant temperature )
V (volume) = ???

V = 1.64604
V ≅ 1.65 L
