<span>Combustion reaction for octane is as follows.
2C</span>₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ → 16CO₂ + 18H₂O

Moles (mol) = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol)

mass of octane = 15.1 g
molar mass of octane = <span>114.23 g/mol
Hence, moles of octane = 15. 1 g / </span><span>114.23 g/mol
                                       = 0.132 mol

The stoichiometric ratio between </span>C₈H₁₈ and CO₂ is 1 : 8.
Hence,
    moles of CO₂ produced = moles of octane burnt x 8
                                          = 0.132 mol x 8
                                          = 1.056 mol

Hence, 15.1 g of octane produce 1.056 moles of CO₂.

How many moles of NaCl are produced if 239.7 grams of Na2S reacts with plenty of AlCl3?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

6.142 moles of NaCl

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2AlCl3 + 3Na2S —> Al2S3 + 6NaCl

Next, we determine the number of mole in 239.7 g of Na2S. This is illustrated below:

Mass mass of Na2S = 78.048g/mol

Mass of Na2S = 239.7g

Number of mole Na2S =..?

Mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole Na2S = 239.7/78.048 = 3.071 moles

Finally, we can obtain the number of mole of NaCl produced from the reaction as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of Na2S reacted to produce 6 moles of NaCl.

Therefore, 3.071 moles of Na2S will react to produce = (3.071 x 6)/3 = 6.142 moles of NaCl

LekaFEV [45]

The correct answer is D) Dan's sister was correct because Dan's legs touched the car seats. That is an indicator of heat transfer by conduction.

Conduction only happens when a heated object touches a non-heated (or not as heated) object. Radiation did cause the car to become hot, but conduction caused Dan to get burned.

Hope this helps!! :D

Boiling water is a physical change, because it is changing state of matter, there is a controllable temperature change, and you can change it back.
