Given:

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The combustion of 59.7 grams of methane releases 3320.81 kilojoules of energy

Explanation:

Given;

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O, ΔH = -890 kJ/mol

From the combustion reaction above, it can be observed that;

1 mole of methane (CH₄) released 890 kilojoules of energy.

Now, we convert 59.7 grams of methane to moles

CH₄ = 12 + (1x4) = 16 g/mol

59.7 g of CH₄ $= \frac{59.7}{16} = 3.73125 \ moles$

1 mole of methane (CH₄) released 890 kilojoules of energy

3.73125 moles of methane (CH₄) will release ?

= 3.73125 moles x -890 kJ/mol

= -3320.81 kJ

Therefore, the combustion of 59.7 grams of methane releases 3320.81 kilojoules of energy

4. How can acids and bases behave in terms of electrolytes/reactivity?

icang [17]

Answer:

Strong acids are strong electrolytes. Such acids ionize completely.

Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Such bases and acids ionize only to a small extent.

Explanation:

Electrolytes are the substances that produce ions when they are dissolved in water. Electrolytes can be categorized as bases, acids, and salts.

Strong acids are strong electrolytes. Such acids ionize completely.

Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Such bases and acids ionize only to a small extent.

You carefully weigh out 16.00 g of CaCO3 powder and add it to 64.80 g of HCl solution. You notice bubbles as a reaction takes pl

Answer: Mass of $CO_2$ produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

$CaCO_3(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)+CaCl_2(aq)$

Mass or reactants = Mass of $CaCO_3$ + mass of $HCl$ = 16.00 + 64.80 = 80.80 g

Mass of products = mass of aqueous solution + mass of $CO_2$ + = 74.24 + x g

Mass or reactants = Mass of products

80.80 g = 74.24 + x g

x = 6.56 g

Thus mass of $CO_2$ produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams

Someone please help me:

Stels [109]

Answer: The number to the left of AC should be 6.

Explanation: The balanced chemical reaction is one in which the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms on product side.

The given equation $A_2B + DC_3 \rightarrow AC + D_2B_3$ is unbalanced as the atoms on the reactant side are not same as number of atoms on product side. This equation is called as skeletal equation.
