<span>Answer is: mass of burned butane is 11.6 g.</span>

Chemical reaction: 2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O.

m(butane) = 50,0 g.

<span> V(CO</span>₂) = 17,9 L.<span>
n(CO</span>₂) = V(CO₂) ÷ Vm.<span>
n(CO</span>₂) = 17,9 L ÷ 22,4 L/mol.<span>
n(CO</span>₂) = 0,8 mol.<span>
From chemical reaction n(CO</span>₂) : n(C₄H₁₀) = 8 : 2.<span>
n(C</span>₄H₁₀) = 0,8 mol ÷ 4.<span>
n(C</span>₄H₁₀) = 0,2 mol.<span>
m(C</span>₄H₁₀) = n(C₄H₁₀) · M(C₄H₁₀).<span>
m(C</span>₄H₁₀) = 0,2 mol · 58 g/mol.<span>
m(C</span>₄H₁₀) = 11,6 g.

Hydrocarbons are compounds that are composed of carbon and hydrogen. Which statement does the law of definite proportions suppor
lora16 [44]
The correct option is A.
The law of definite proportion states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio irrespective of the source they are obtain from.
For instance, water is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Water can not be formed in any other way. Combining the oxygen and the hydrogen in another ratio will give us another thing not water.

A chemist prepares a solution by adding 258 mg of K2Cr2O7 (MW = 294.19 g/mol ) to a volumetric flask, and then adding water unti
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: Molarity of the prepared solution is 1.75\times 10^{-3}mole/L

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n= moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in ml = 500 ml

moles of solute =\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{0.258g}{294.19g/mol}=8.77\times 10^{-4}mol

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{8.77\times 10^{-4}moles\times 1000}{500ml}=1.75\times 10^{-3}mole/L

Thus molarity of the prepared solution is 1.75\times 10^{-3}mole/L

Consider the chemical equation in equilibrium.
Andrew [12]
When pressure in a chemical reaction increases, the equilibrium will shift towards the side of the reaction with fewer moles of gas. When there is a decrease in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side of the reaction with more moles of gas.Therefore; in this case; increased the Equilibrium will shift to the left and favor the reverse reaction. This is because the side of products has more moles compared to the side of reactants, thus increased in pressure will aid conversion of products to reactants.
