How much faster does ethane (C2H6) gas travel compared to chlorine gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
zimovet [89]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{54 $\, \%$ faster }}

Explanation:

v_{\text{rms}} \propto \sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}

if temperature is constant.  

v_{\text{rms}} \propto \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{M}

if we are comparing two gases,

\dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}

Let chlorine be Gas 1 and ethane be Gas 2

Data:

M₁ =  70.91 g/mol

M₂ = 30.07 g/mol

Calculation

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} & = & \sqrt{\dfrac{M_{1}}{M_{2}}}\\\\& = & \sqrt{\dfrac{70.91}{30.07}}\\\\& = & \sqrt{2.358}\\\\& = & \mathbf{1.54}\\\end{array}\\\text{Ethane molecules travel at 1.54 times the speed of chlorine molecules}\\\text{or $\large \boxed{\textbf{54 $\%$ faster }}$ than chlorine molecules}

2. Chromium+oxygen - chromium(III) oxide <br>balanced​
sesenic [268]

Answer:

4Cr + 3O2 —> 2Cr2O3

Explanation:

Information from the question include:

Chromium + oxygen -> chromium(III) oxide

From the word equation given above, the equation can be written as follow:

Cr + O2 —> Cr2O3

The equation can be balance by doing the following:

There are 2 atoms of O on the left side and 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of Cr2O3 and 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

Cr + 3O2 —> 2Cr2O3

Now, we have 4 atoms of Cr on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of Cr as shown below:

4Cr + 3O2 —> 2Cr2O3

Now the equation is balanced

A) Devices that transfer kinetic energy have what for their source of power?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

A) Devices that transfer kinetic energy have a source of power that is in motion

Kinetic energy is the energy in motion, as such, a device that transfers kinetic energy transfers the energy the power source has into other energy forms

B) Kerosene does not easily cold start like diesel which can burn after compression

C) The first law of thermodynamics states that energy is conserved and it can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be changed from one form to another.

Therefore, when energy is not available in a given location or body, it cannot be obtained from that body or location
