Answer : The enthalpy for the combustion of 1 mole of pentane is -3024.8 kJ

Explanation :

Enthalpy change : It is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(reactant)]

The equilibrium reaction follows:

C_5H_{12}(g)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 5CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(n_{(CO_2)}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2)})+(n_{(H_2O)}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O)})]-[(n_{(C_5H_{12})}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(C_5H_{12})})+(n_{(O_2)}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2)})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-393.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(C_5H_{12}(g))}=-119.9kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(5\times -393.5)+(6\times -241.8)]-[(1\times -393.5)+(8\times 0)=-3024.8kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy for the combustion of 1 mole of pentane is -3024.8 kJ

<span>The enthalpy of the reaction in an aqueous solution can be determined by taking the difference between the summation of enthalpies of the products multiplied to their respective stoichiometric coefficient and the summation of enthalpies of the reactants multiplied to their respective  stoichiometric coefficient. In this case, the equation is -241(6) + -393.5 (5) -[-119.9] equal to 641.4 kJ </span>

An 8 oz. bottle of energy drink contains 6.0 g of protein, 2.0 g of fat, and 16.3 g of carbohydrate. The fuel value of this ener
valina [46]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct option is d) 460 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Content of fat in energy drink = 2.0 g

Content of protein in energy drink = 6.0 g

Content of carbohydrate in energy drink = 16.3 g

Also,

The fuel value of fat = 38 kJ/g

The fuel value of protein = 17 kJ/g

The fuel value of carbohydrate = 17 kJ/g

So, the fuel value of the energy drink will be:

Total fuel value = (2.0g\times 38 kJ/g)+(6.0g\times 17 kJ/g)+(16.3g\times 17 kJ/g)

Total fuel value = [76+102+277]=460kJ

Hence, the correct option is d) 460 kJ

A sample of an unknown compound with a mass of 0.847 g has the following composition: 50.51 % fluorine and 49.49 % iron. When th
sergejj [24]

Answer: 0,4278g of F and 0,4191g of Fe

Explanation: it's possible to calculate the mass of each element by multiplying the percentage (decimal) of the element by the mass of the compound.

For Fluorine (F)

0,847g * 0,5051 = 0,4278g of F

For iron (Fe)

0,847 * 0,4949 = 0,4191g of Fe

This is determined because even when the compound is decomposed, due to conservative law of mass, the decomposition process do not affect the amount of matter, so the mass of the elements remain even if they are separated from the original molecule.

At the end, the sum of the elements masses should be the total mass of the compound.
