The balanced equation for water is 2 H2 + O2 to 2 H2O. If I have 21.2g of a product , and I started with 5.6 g of H2, how many g

rams of oxygen were reacted

7 0

Since 21.2 g H2O was produced, the amount of oxygen that reacted can be obtained using stoichiometry. The balanced equation was given:  2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O and the molar masses of the relevant species are also listed below. Thus, the following equation is used to determine the amount of oxygen consumed.

Molar mass of H2O = 18 g/mol

Molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

21.2 g H20 x 1 mol H2O/ 18 g H2O x 1 mol O2/ 2 mol H2O x 32 g O2/ 1 mol O2 = 18.8444 g O2

<span>We then determine that 18.84 g of O2 reacted to form 21.2 g H2O based on stoichiometry. It is important to note that we do not need to consider the amount of H2 since we can derive the amount of O2 from the product. Additionally, the amount of H2 is in excess in the reaction.</span>

I wanted known how many of the reaction below is energy released
Tema [17]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

In two reactions energy is released.

1) C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂    →    6H₂O + 6CO₂ + heat

It is cellular respiration reaction.It involves the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

2) 2H₂ + O₂   →    2H₂O  ΔH = -486 kj/mol

The given reaction is formation of water. In this reaction oxygen and hydrogen react to form water and 486 kj/mol is also released.

The reaction in which heat is released is called exothermic reaction.

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂   →  CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂   →  CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O   →  CO  + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C +  H₂O  + 131 kj/mol  →  CO  + H₂

What happens in the redox reaction below? Select all that apply.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

B- Sodium loses an electron.

D- Fluorine gains an electron.

Sodium is oxidized.

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

        Na  + F →  NaF

In this reaction, Na is the reducing agent. It loses an electron and then becomes oxidized. By so doing, Na becomes isoelectronic with Neon.

Fluorine gains the electron and then becomes reduced. This makes fluorine also isoelectronic with Neon.

This separation of charges on the two species leads to an electrostatic attraction which forms the ionic bonds.

Cycloheptatrienone is stable, but cyclopentadienone is so reactive that it can't be isolated. Taking into account the polarity o
Lorico [155]

Answer and Explanation:

The resonance contributor in cyclopentadienone (as shown in the attachment below) results into the compound having a positive charge on the carbonyl group, C=O which accounts for a highly reactive anti-aromatic 4π system. And this illustrates the reason for its instability.
