Answer:
0.645 L
Explanation:
To find the volume, you need to (1) convert grams to moles (using the molar mass) and then (2) calculate the volume (using the molarity ratio). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given values.
(Step 1)
Molar Mass (KOH): 39.098 g/mol + 15.998 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol
Molar Mass (KOH): 56.104 g/mol
19.9 grams KOH 1 mole
-------------------------- x ----------------------- = 0.355 moles KOH
56.014 grams
(Step 2)
Molarity = moles / volume <----- Molarity ratio
0.550 M = 0.355 moles / volume <----- Insert values
(0.550 M) x volume = 0.355 moles <----- Multiply both sides by volume
volume = 0.645 L <----- Divide both sides by 0.550
Answer:
2NO(g) + O2(g) ---> 2NO2(g)
Explanation:
The mechanism for this reaction involves two elementary reactions in which both are bimolecular as shown below;
NO(g) +O2(g) ----> NO2(g) + O(g)
NO(g) + O(g) ----> NO2(g)
Hence overall balanced reaction equation;
2NO(g) + O2(g) ---> 2NO2(g)
Answer:
The behavior of molecules in different phases of matter represents a balance between the kinetic energies of the molecules and the attractive forces between them. All molecules are attracted to each other. The molecules are in the solid-state. At higher temperatures, the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher.
A general equation for a combustion reaction would be expressed as follows:
CxHy + (x+y/2)O2 = xCO2 + y/2H2O
Propane would obviously would only have carbon and hydrogen in its structure. Assuming a complete combustion, all of the carbon atoms would go to carbon dioxide and all of the hydrogen atoms to water. To determine the empirical, we determine the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms present.
moles C = 2.461 g CO2 ( 1 mol / 44.01 g ) ( 1 mol C / 1 mol CO2 ) = 0.06 mol C
moles H = 1.442 g H2O ( 1 mol / 18.02 g ) ( 2 mol H / 1 mol H ) = 0.16 mol H
Then, we divide the smallest amount to the each mole of the atoms. We do as follows:
C = 0.06 / 0.06 = 1
H = 0.16 / 0.06 = 2.67
Then we multiply a number in order to obtain a whole number ratio between the atoms.
1 CH2.67
2 C2H5.34
3 C3H8 <-------- empirical formula
