<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.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Doping with galium or indium will yield a p-type semiconductor while doping with arsenic, antimony or phosphorus will yield an n-type semiconductor.

Explanation:

Doping refers to improving the conductivity of a semiconductor by addition of impurities. A trivalent impurity leads to p-type semiconductor while a pentavalent impurity leads to an n-type semiconductor.

A chemical reaction occurs when 2 white solids are stirred together they turn into a slushy white solid and the glass jar feels
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Absorbed, endothermic

Explanation:

Based on the heat of reaction, chemical reactions may be classified as endothermic or exothermic.

In an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed from the surrounding. As heat is absorbed from the surrounding, the reaction vessel feels cool when touched.

On the other hand, in an exothermic reaction, heat is given out by the system to the surrounding and the reaction vessel feels hot when touched.

Hence the reaction is endothermic and energy is absorbed during the reaction.

Nitrogen has an average atomic mass of 14.00674. it has two isotopes, n-14 and n-15, with atomic masses of 14.0031 amu and 15.00
masya89 [10]
In this case, we are going to assume that there are 100 atoms to make things easier. 

Let R% be the abundance of n-15. With this in mind, we calculate the abundance of n-14 to be 100%-R%

14.0031*(100-R)% + 15.001 * R%= 14.00674 
In this case, we can delete or ignore the % sign since we do not want to carry it around, however, we need to keep in mind that the final answer is in %

14.0031*(100-R) + 15.001 * R= 14.00674 
1400.31-14.0031R+15.001R=1400.674
0.9979R=0.364
R=0.3648

Then, the abundance of n-15 is 0.3648%

When 231. mg of a certain molecular compound X are dissolved in 65. g of benzene (CH), the freezing point of the solution is mea
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Molar mass X = 18.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of compound X = 231 mg = 0.231 grams

Mass of benzene = 65.0 grams

The freezing point of the solution is measured to be 4.5 °C.

Freezing point of pure benzene = 5.5 °C

The freezing point constant for benzene is 5.12 °C/m

Step 2: Calculate molality

ΔT = i*Kf*m

⇒ΔT = the freezing point depression = 5.5 °C - 4.5 °C = 1.0 °C

⇒i = the Van't hoff factor = 1

⇒Kf = the freezing point depression constant for benzene = 5.12 °C/m

⇒m = the molality = moles X / mass benzene

m = 1.0 / 5.12 °C/m

m = 0.1953 molal

Step 3: Calculate moles X

Moles X = molality * mass benzene

Moles X = 0.1953 molal * 0.065 kg

Moles X = 0.0127 moles

Step 4: Calculate molar mass X

Molar mass X = mass / moles

Molar mass X = 0.231 grams / 0.0127 moles

Molar mass X = 18.2 g/mol
