When you burn a log in your fireplace you are converting c<span>ellulose into carbon dioxide and water.
</span>
Wood is made from cellulose. When wood burns, cellulose reacts with oxygen from the air and it forms carbon dioxide and water vapor. 

The reaction of the combustion of glucose is as follows:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ = 6 CO₂ + 6H₂O
When wood burns, we notice that it slowly disappears because it passes into the mentioned gases. The ash that is created is part of the wood that did not burn.

Picture this in your mind as you read it: You weigh an empty, clean, dry beaker on the balance (scale). It weighs 32.15 grams. Y
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

2.25 g

Explanation:

The mass of the solid X must be the total mass (beaker + solid X) less than the mass of the beaker. Then:

mass of the solid X = 34.40 - 32.15

mass of the solid X = 2.25 g

The difference of 0.25 g must occur for several problems: an incorrect weight in the balance, the configuration of the balance, the solid can be hydrophilic and absorbs water, and others.

Fed [463]

Answer:

T2 = 94.6 C

Explanation:

Use Clausius-Clayperyon equation.

ln P1/P2 = ∆Hvap/R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where R = 8.314 J/mol-K and T is in degrees K

P1 = 760 mmHg

P2 = 630 mmHg  

T1 = 373 K

T2 = ?

∆Hvap = 40.7 kJ/mole

R = 0.008314 kJ/mole-K (NOTE: change R to units of kJ)

Plug in and solve for T2

ln 760 mmHg/630 mmHg = 40.7 kJ/mole (1/T2 - 1/373K)

T2 = 367.74 K = 94.6 C
