An organic liquid is a mixture of methyl alcohol (CH3OH) and ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH). A 0.220-g sample of the liquid is burned in

an excess of O2(g) and yields 0.386 g CO2(g) (carbon dioxide). Set up two algebraic equations, one expressing the mass of carbon dioxide produced in terms of each reagent and the other expressing the mass of sample burned in terms of each reagent.What is the mass of methyl alcohol (CH3OH) in the sample?

Answer: the mass of methyl alcohol (CH3OH) in the sample is 0.0641 g

Explanation:

1. <u>Preliminars</u>;

  • Mass  of CH₃ OH: M
  • Mass of C₂H₅OH: E
  • Molar mass of CH₃ OH: 32.04 g/mol
  • Molar mass of C₂H₅OH: 46.07 g/mol
  • Molar mass of CO₂: 44.01 g/mol
  • Molar mass equation: molar mass = mass in grams / number of moles

2. <u><em>Algebraic equation # 1: mass of sample burned in terms of each reagent.</em></u>

  • M + E = 0.220 ------ (1)

3. <u><em>Algebraic equation # 2: mass of carbon dioxide produced in terms of each reagent</em></u>.

a) Combustion of methyl alcohol

  • 2CH₃OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(g)
  • 2 mol CH₃OH → 2 mol CO₂
  • 2 × 32.04 g CH₃OH → 2 × 44.01 g CO₂
  • Mass of CO₂ produced from M grams of CH₃OH = M / 32.04 × 44.01 = 1.374 M

b) Combustion of ethyl alcohol

  • C₂H₅OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)
  • 1 mol C₂H₅OH → 2 mol CO₂
  • 46.07 g CH₃OH → 2 × 44.01 g CO₂
  • Mass of CO₂ produced from E grams of C₂H₅OH = E / 46.07 × 88.02 = 1.911 E

c) Mass of CO₂ (g) obtained, in terms of each reagent

  •     1.374 M + 1.911 E = 0.386 ----- (2)

4) <u>System of equations</u>

  •        M   +         E = 0.220 ------ (1)
  • 1.374 M + 1.911 E = 0.386 ----- (2)

5) <u>Solution</u>

  • From equation (1): E = 0.220 - M
  • Substituting in equation (2): 1.374 M + 1.911 (0.220 - M) = 0.386
  • 1.374 M + 0.4204 - 1.911 M = 0.386
  • - 0.537 M = - 0.0344
  • M = 0.0344 / 0.537 = 0.0641 g

Answer:  the mass of methyl alcohol (CH3OH) in the sample is 0.0641 g

All you have to do is explain the relationship between years and inches. The most rain was in 2004 with 10 inches and the least was in 1998 with 4 inches. In recent years there has been more rain than in the past. For the analysis just summarize that.

What is the minimum amount of 6.0 M H2SO4H2SO4 necessary to produce 25.0 g of H2(g)H2(g) according to the reaction between alumi
Lelechka [254]

2.083 Liters of 6.0 M solution sulfuric acid is required. This solved using molecular calculations and Titration.

Solution: 2Al(s)+3H_2SO_4(aq) = Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq)+3H_2(g)

Moles of hydrogen gas =  \frac{25}{2} = 12.5 mol

Then 12.5 moles of hydrogen will be obtained from Moles of Sulfuric acid = 12.5 mol

Molarity of the sulfuric acid solution = 6.0 M = 6 mol/ l

6M = \frac{12.5 mole}{V}

where V is the volume needed

V = \frac{12.5}{6}

V = 2.083 l

<h3>What is Titration?</h3>
  • Titration, commonly referred to as titrimetry, is a typical quantitative chemical analysis method used in laboratories to ascertain the unidentified quantity of an analyte .
  • Titration is frequently referred to as volumetric analysis because it relies heavily on volume measurements. The titrant or titrator is a reagent that is prepared as a standard solution.
  • To determine concentration, a solution of the analyte or titrand reacts with a known concentration and volume of the titrant. The titration volume is the amount of titrant that has responded.
  • Titrations come in a variety of forms with various protocols and objectives. Redox and acid-base titrations are the two most typical types of qualitative titrations.

a flask was filled with SO2 at a partial pressure of 0.409 atm and O2 at a partial pressure of 0.601 atm. The following gas-phas
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Partial pressure of SO2 = 0.409 atm

Partial pressure of O2 = 0.601 atm

At equilibrium, the partial pressure of SO2 was 0.297 atm.

Step 2: The balanced equation

2SO2 + O2 ⇆ 2SO3

Step 3: The initial pressure

pSO2 = 0.409 atm

pO2 = 0.601 atm

pSO3 = 0 atm

Step 4: Calculate the pressure at the equilibrium

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm

pO2 = 0.601 - X atm

pSO3 = 2X

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm = 0.297

 X = 0.056 atm

pO2 = 0.601 - 0.056 = 0.545 atm

pSO3 = 2*0.056 = 0.112 atm

Step 5: Calculate Kp

Kp = (pSO3)²/((pO2)*(pSO2)²)

Kp = (0.112²) / (0.545 * 0.297²)

Kp = 0.261

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm
