Answer : The mass of H_2O produced will be, 8.1 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Volume of CH_4 = 50dm^3=50L    (1dm^3=1L)

Volume of O_2 = 10dm^3=10L

Molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of CH_4 and O_2.

As, 22.4 L volume of CH_4 present in 1 mole of CH_4

So, 50 L volume of CH_4 present in \frac{50}{22.4}=2.23 mole of CH_4

and,

As, 22.4 L volume of O_2 present in 1 mole of O_2

So, 10 L volume of O_2 present in \frac{10}{22.4}=0.45 mole of O_2

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of O_2 react with 1 mole of CH_4

So, 0.45 moles of O_2 react with \frac{0.45}{2}=0.225 moles of CH_4

From this we conclude that, CH_4 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and O_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of H_2O.

As, 2 moles of O_2 react to give 2 moles of H_2O

As, 0.45 moles of O_2 react to give 0.45 moles of H_2O

Now we have to calculate the mass of H_2O.

\text{Mass of }H_2O=\text{Moles of }H_2O\times \text{Molar mass of }H_2O

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.45mole)\times (18g/mole)=8.1g

Therefore, the mass of H_2O produced will be, 8.1 grams.

What is the mass of water necessary to generate 11.2 L of hydrogen gas if calcium metal reacts with water at standard temperatur
12345 [234]

Answer:

The mass of water is 18 g

Explanation:

The reaction of calcium with water can be represented in the equation below:

Ca + 2H₂O --------->Ca(OH)₂ +H₂

1 Mole of gas at STP = 22.4L

From the displacement reaction above, calculate the mass of water that will produce 22.4L of hydrogen gas at STP.

Mass of 2H₂O = 2(2x1 + 16) = 2X18 = 36 g/mol

Using proportional analysis;

36 g of 2H₂O produced 22.4 L of H₂, then

what mass of 2H₂O will produce 11.2L of  H₂ ?

Mathematically,

22.4 L ----------------------------------> 36g

11.2 L -----------------------------------> ?

Cross and multiply, to obtain the expression below

= (11.2 X 36)/22.4

= 18 g

Therefore, the mass of water is 18 g

describe how the current modern atomic theory and model differs from the model jj Thompson proposed ?
myrzilka [38]
J.J Thompson’s model shows a sphere with electrons that are moving around freely. However, Thompson’s model does not show protons or neutrons. The model that we have today gives a clearer structure showing protons, neutrons, and electrons inside an atom.

Calculate the molarity of each of the following solutions. Use the periodic table if necessary. A salt solution with a volume of
Andru [333]

The molarity of the NaCl in the 250 ml slat solution is 2.8M.

<h3>What is molarity?</h3>

The molarity of a solution is defined as the concentration of a solute per unit volume of the solution.

Given, the volume of the solution is 250 ml converted into l 0.25

The number of moles of NaCl is 0.70.

By the formula  of molarity

M = \dfrac{n}{V}\\\\\\M = \dfrac{0.70}{0.25} = 2.8 M

Thus, the molarity is 2.8 M.
