Explain the result when aluminum is placed between the liquid and the wick

1 answer:

8 0

<span>The wick merely transports some of the liquid up to where vaporizes.It is not part of reaction but it does affect the reaction rate greatly,so it is a sort of catalyst in that time.if you wrap the wick in the aluminum it will block the transport the wax and it will wither go out less or brightly</span>

The complete combustion of propane (C3H8) in the presence of oxygen yields CO2 and H2O: C3H8 (g) + 5O2 (g) 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (g) a

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

26.9 L is the volume of CO₂, we obtained

Explanation:

The reaction is: C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂ (g) + 4H₂O (g)

Let's determine the reactants moles:

27.5 g . 1mol / 44 g = 0.625 moles

We need density of O₂ to determine mass and then, the moles.

O₂ density = O₂ mass / O₂ volume

O₂ density . O₂ volume = O₂ mass

1.429 g/L . 45L = O₂ mass → 64.3 g

Moles of O₂ → 64.3 g . 1mol/32g = 2.009 moles

Let's find out the limiting reactant:

1 mol of propane needs 5 moles of oxygen to react

Then, 0.625 moles will react with (0.625 . 5)/1 = 3.125 moles of O₂

Oxygen is the limiting reactant, we need 3.125 moles but we only have 2.009 moles

Ratio is 5:3. 5 moles of O₂ produce 3 moles of CO₂

Therefore, 2.009 moles of O₂ must produce (2.009 .3) /5 = 1.21 moles of CO₂. Let's find out the volume, by Ideal Gases Law (STP are 1 atm and 273K, the standard conditions)

1 atm . V = 1.21 moles . 0.082 . 273K

V = (1.21 moles . 0.082 . 273K) / 1atm = 26.9 L

1. In the investigation of an unknown alcohol, there was a positive Jones test and a negative Lucas test. What deductions may be

pogonyaev

Answer:

1. When observing a positive test for the jones reagent and negative for the Lucas test, it indicates that it is in the presence of a primary alcohol.

Jones reagent behaves like a strong oxidant, where it transforms the primary alcohols into carboxylic acids and the secondary alcohols into ketones. Tertiary alcohols do not react.

With the Lucas test, tertiary alcohols react immediately producing turbidity, while secondary alcohols do so in five minutes. Primary alcohols do not react significantly with Lucas reagent at room temperature.

2. No reaction (See the attached drawing)

The combustion of ethene in the presence of excess oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water: c2h4 (g) + 3o2 (g) → 2co2 (g) + 2h2o

meriva

Answer:

$\boxed{-267.5}$

Explanation:

You can calculate the entropy change of a reaction by using the standard molar entropies of reactants and products.

The formula is

$\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = \sum_n {nS_{\text{products}}^{\circ} - \sum_{m} {mS_{\text{reactants}}^{\circ}}}$

The equation for the reaction is

C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

ΔS°/J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹ 219.5 205.0 213.6 69.9

$\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = (2\times213.6 + 2\times69.9) - (1\times219.5 + 3\times205.0)\\\\= 567.0 - 834.5 = \boxed{-267.5 \text{ J}\cdot\text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}$
