Answers:

8.70 g

Step-by-step explanation:

We know we will need a balanced equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s <em>gather all the information</em> in one place.  

M_r:                   32.00      44.01

           2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ⟶ 16CO₂ + 18H₂O

m/g:                    9.88

(a) Calculate the <em>moles of O₂ </em>

n = 9.88 g O₂ ×1 mol O₂ /32.00 g O₂

n = 0.3088 mol O₂

(b) Calculate the <em>moles of CO₂</em>

The molar ratio is (16 mol CO₂/25 mol O₂)

n = 0.3088 mol O₂ × (16 mol CO₂/25 mol O₂)

n = 0.1976 mol CO₂

(c) Calculate the <em>mass of CO₂ </em>

Mass of CO₂ = 0.1976 mol CO₂ × (44.01 g CO₂/1 mol CO₂)

Mass of CO₂ = 8.70 g CO₂

A researcher wants to determine the proportion of pro-peace students at Rutgers University. He has no idea what the sample propo
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The sample size is 601.

Explanation:

Given information:

Confidence interval = 95%

E = 4% = 0.04

From the z table it is clear that the z-value 95% confidence is 1.96.

A researcher wants to determine the proportion of pro-peace students at Rutgers University.

p=0.5

Formula for sample size is

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z}{E})^2

Substitute the given values in the above formula.

n=0.5(1-0.5)(\dfrac{1.96}{0.04})^2

n=0.5(0.5)(49)^2

n=600.25

Sample size can not be a decimal value. So, round the answer to the next whole number.

n=601

Therefore, the sample size is 601.

A 25.0 ml solution of .0600 M EDTA was added to a 57.0 ml sample containing an unknown concentration of V3+. All V3+ present for
Rom4ik [11]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the ratio for the given reaction is 1:1.

Therefore, we will calculate the moles of Ga^{3+} as follows.

   Moles of Ga^{3+} solution = molarity × volume (L)

                              = 0.0440 M × 0.014 L

                              = 0.000616 moles

Moles of excess EDTA = 0.000616 moles

Also, the initial moles of EDTA will be calculated as follows.

     Total initial moles of EDTA = 0.0600 M × 0.025 L

                                                 = 0.0015

Therefore, moles of EDTA reacted with V^{3+} will be as follows.

                = 0.0015 - 0.000616

                = 0.00088 moles

Since, we have supposed a 1 : 1 ratio between V^{3+} and EDTA .

So, moles of V^{3+} = 0.00088 moles

Now, we will calculate the molarity of V^{3+} as follows.

       Molarity of V^{3+} solution = \frac{\text{moles}}{\text{volume (L)}}

                             = \frac{0.00088 moles}{0.057 L}

                             = 0.015 M

Thus, we can conclude that the original concentration of the V^{3+} solution is 0.015 M.
