Answer:

0.846 moles.

Explanation:

  • This is a stichiometric problem.
  • The balanced equation of complete combustion of butane is:

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O

  • It is clear from the stichiometry of the balanced equation that complete combustion of 1.0 mole of butane needs 6.5 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 5 moles of H₂O.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

  • 1.0 mole of C₄H₁₀ reacts with → 6.5 moles of O₂
  • ??? moles of C₄H₁₀ are needed to react with → 5.5 moles of O₂
  • The number of moles of C₄H₁₀ that are needed to react with 5.5 moles of O₂ = (1.0 x 5.5 moles of O₂) / (6.5 moles of O₂) = 0.846 moles.

What is the concentration of H+ ions at a pH = 2?
erastova [34]

Answer:

0.01M = [H⁺]; 1x10⁻¹²M = [OH⁻]; Ratio is: 1x10¹⁰

Explanation:

pH is defined as -log [H⁺]

For a pH of 2 we can solve [H⁺] as follows:

pH = -log [H⁺]

2 = -log [H⁺]

10^-2 = [H⁺]

<h3>0.01M = [H⁺]</h3>

Using Keq of water:

Keq = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [H⁺] [OH⁻]

1x10⁻¹⁴ / 0.01M = [OH⁻]

<h3>1x10⁻¹²M = [OH⁻]</h3><h3 />

The ratio is:

[H⁺] / [OH⁻] = 0.01 / 1x10⁻¹² =

<h3>1x10¹⁰</h3>

Determine the specific heat of copper from the fact that 38 g of 80°C copper are needed to raise the temperature of 15 g of wate
mars1129 [50]
From the equation q=mCΔT, set the q of copper = to q of water,

So --- mCΔT(copper)=mCΔT(water).

mass (Cu - copper) = 38g
mass (H2O - water) = 15g
C (H2O) = 4.184 J/g*C
ΔΤ (H2O) = 33-22 = 11*C
ΔΤ (Cu) = 33-80 = -47*C (the final temp is the same for both materials - thermal equilibrium)
C (Cu) = ?

So --- 38(-47)C[Cu]=15(4.184)(11)
     --- C[Cu]=690.36/(-1786) = 0.3865 J/g*C, or 0.39 in 2 sig figs. (The negative goes away, because specific heats are usually positive)
