Ethane, a minority component of natural gas, burns to form carbon dioxide and water according to this reaction: 2H3C−CH3(g)+7O2(

g)→4CO2(g)+6H2O(g) Note that the average bond energy for the breaking of a bond in CO2 is 799 kJ/mol. Use average bond energies to calculate ΔHrxn for this reaction.

Answer:

The answer is -2812 kJ.

Explanation:

I got this answer from another person:

The following values will vary depending on the source;

C-C  347 kJ/mole;  C-H 414 kJ/mole;  O-H 464 kJ/mole ;  O=O  498 kJ/mole

It takes energy to break bonds and energy is released when bonds are formed.

Ethane has 1 C-C bond  ;  1(347 )  347 kJ/mole

Ethane has 6-C-H bonds;  6(414) = 2484 kJ/mole

Break the bonds of 1 mole of C2H6  =  2831 kJ

2 moles of ethane in balanced equation:  2(2831 kJ) =  5662 kJ

Break 7 O=O bonds  =  7(498 ) = 3486

Total energy to break all bonds: 5662 +   2486 = +9148 kJ

2C=O bond formed in CO2  = 2(799) =  1598 kJ/mole

4 moles of CO2 = 4(1598) =  6392

2(O-H) bonds in H2O =  2(464)  =  928 kJ/mole

6 moles of H2O  =  6(928 kJ) = 5568

Total energy released =  6392 + 5568 = 11,960 kJ  

The sign of this energy is -11,960 since it is exothermic.

Energy change for 2 moles of ethane = -11,960 + 9148 = -2812 kJ

ΔHrxn = -2812 kJ

Explain how each property affects the energy in a wave:
umka21 [38]

Answer:Amplitude:the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position. It is equal to one-half the length of the vibration path.Wave speed:Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time, such as the number of meters it travels per second. Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency by the equation: Speed = Wavelength x Frequency. This equation can be used to calculate wave speed when wavelength and frequency are known.Wavelength:Wavelength is the distance between identical points (adjacent crests) in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space or along a wire. In wireless systems, this length is usually specified in meters (m), centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm).Frequency:frequency, in physics, the number of waves that pass a fixed point in unit time; also, the number of cycles or vibrations undergone during one unit of time by a body in periodic motion.

Identify the Brønsted-Lowry acid, the Brønsted-Lowry base, the conjugate acid, and the conjugate base in each reaction:
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C5H5N is the base and C5H5NH+ is the conjugate acid

H2O is the acid and OH− is the conjugate base

Explanation:

<u>Hydrogen + is also called a proton</u>

C5H5N is the base because it receives the proton (H+) and C5H5NH+ is its conjugate acid

H2O is the acid  because it gives up the proton and OH− is the conjugate base because it is capable of receiving the proton

Answer:

HNO3 is the acid and NO3- is the conjugate base

H2O is the base and H3O+ is the conjugate acid

Explanation

HNO3 is the acid and NO3− is its conjugate base, capable of receiving a proton

H2O is the base because it receives the proton and H3O+ is a conjugate acid capable of giving up the proton.

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Period

Explanation:

If we ubicate te period one on the alkaline metals, we can see the lithium, so we go to the borans on te group AIII an we see Boron, move to the rigth on the same sense tou the group AVI we see the Oxygen, we can know that also for the electronic configuration Li:1s²2s¹    B:1s²2s²3p
