Using the following equation, 2C2H6 +7O2 -->4CO2 +6H2O, if 2.5g C2H6 react with 170g of O2, how many grams of water will be p
kirill [66]

The mass of water (H₂O) that would be produced is 4.5 g

<h3>Stoichiometry </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the mass of water that would be produced.

From the given balanced chemical equation

2C₂H₆ +7O₂ → 4CO₂ +6H₂O

This means

2 moles of C₂H₆ reacts with 7 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 6 moles of H₂O

Now, we will determine the number of moles of each reactant present

  • For Ethane (C₂H₆)

Mass = 2.5 g

Molar mass = 30.07 g

Using the formula,

Number\ of\ moles = \frac{Mass}{Molar\ mass}

Number of moles of C₂H₆ present = \frac{2.5}{30.07}

Number of moles of C₂H₆ present = 0.08314 mole

  • For Oxygen (O₂)

Mass = 170g

Molar mass = 31.999 g/mol

Number of moles of O₂ present = \frac{170}{31.999}

Number of moles of O₂ present = 5.3127 moles

Since

2 moles of C₂H₆ reacts with 7 moles of O₂

Then,

0.08314 mole of C₂H₆ will react with \frac{7 \times 0.08314 }{2}

 \frac{7 \times 0.08314 }{2} = 0.58198 mole

Therefore,

0.08314 mole of C₂H₆ reacts with 0.58198 mole of O₂ to produce 3 × 0.08314 moles of H₂O

3 × 0.08314 = 0.24942 mole

Thus, the number of moles of water (H₂O) produced is 0.24942 mole

Now, for the mass of water that would be produced,

Using the formula,

Mass = Number of moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of water = 18.015 g/mol

Then,

Mass of water that would be produced = 0.24942 × 18.015

Mass of water that would be produced = 4.4933 g

Mass of water that would be produced ≅ 4.5 g

Hence, the mass of water (H₂O) that would be produced is 4.5 g

Choose the solvent below that would show the greatest freezing point lowering when used to make a 0.20 m nonelectrolyte solution
tatiyna

Answer : Carbon tetrachloride, k_f=29.9^oC/m will show the greatest freezing point lowering.

Explanation :

For non-electrolyte solution, the formula used for lowering in freezing point is,

\Delta T_f=k_f\times m

where,

\Delta T_f = lowering in freezing point

k_f = molal depression constant

m = molality

As per question, the molality is same for all the non-electrolyte solution. So, the lowering in freezing point is depend on the k_f only.

That means the higher the value of k_f, the higher will be the freezing point lowering.

From the given non-electrolyte solutions, the value of k_f of carbon tetrachloride is higher than the other solutions.

Therefore, Carbon tetrachloride, k_f=29.9^oC/m will show the greatest freezing point lowering.
