Answer:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Thus, the amount of matter cannot change.

Why the mixture of bromine and ethane is discoloured when left in the sun

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

In the presence of UV light, ethane will react with bromine in a substitution reaction. UV light is the condition under which the reaction will occur so it is written above the arrow in the chemical equation. As the reaction proceeds, the intensity of the re-brown colour of the bromine water decreases.

What products would you expect from the reaction of ammonia and sulfuric acid in aqueous solution? 2nh3(aq)+h2so4(aq)→ ?

arsen [322]

From the reaction of ammonia and sulfuric acid in aqueous solution 2nh3(aq)+h2so4(aq)<span>→</span> (NH4)2SO4 + H2O will be formed.Sulfuric acid is diprotic so is able to give up 2 H+ ions. It is an acid-base neutralisation reaction forming ammonium sulphate as the salt. 2NH3 with H2SO4 reacts in a neutralization reaction to form salt water, with ammonium sulphate left behind to crystallize after evaporation.

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kj of heat what mass of co2 is produced?

kari74 [83]

The heat of reaction (i.e. combustion) of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) when reacted with oxygen ( $O_{2}$ )  is -2658 kJ/mol butane, and the chemical reaction is given by:

$C_{4} H_{10}$ + $\frac{13}{2} O_{2}$ ---> $4 CO_{2}$ + $5 H_{2}O$

The mass of butane required in the reaction is based on the heat produced by the reaction, which is given to be -1,500 kJ. The minus sign is added because the reaction releases heat (exothermic), which means that the products are in a "lower energy state" than the reactants.

Dividing this with the heat of reaction per mole of butane reacted would give the number of moles butane required. Then, multiplying the answer with the molar mass of butane which is 58 grams/mole, will give the mass of butane required.

Moles of butane = [(-1,500 kJ)/(-2658 kJ/mol butane)]
Moles of butane = 0.5643 moles butane

Mass of butane  = 0.5643 moles butane * 58 grams/mol butane
Mass of butane = 32.73 grams butane

The mass of carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ) can be determined by multiplying the moles of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) with the mole ratio of ( $CO_{2}$ ) produced to the ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) reacted, and then with the molar mass of ( $CO_{2}$ ), which is 44 grams/mole.

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 0.5643 moles butane * [4 moles $CO_{2}$ / 1 mole $C_{4} H_{10}$ ] * 44 grams/mole $CO_{2}$

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 99.32 grams $CO_{2}$

Thus, the mass of butane required is 32.73 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the reaction of this amount of butane is 99.32 grams.
