<u>Answer:</u> The balanced equation for the above reaction is given below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Combustion reaction is defined as the reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water molecule.

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of methane follows:

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of methane gas reacts with 2 moles of oxygen gas to produce 1 mole of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water molecule.

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is given above.

A slice of pizza has 500 kcal. If we could burn the pizza and use all the heat to warm a 50-L container of cold water, what woul
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

10°C  

Explanation:

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by the slice of pizza

Thus,    

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times \Delta T=Q

<u>For water:  </u>

Volume = 50.0 L

Density of water= 1 kg/L  

So, mass of the water:  

Mass\ of\ water=Density \times {Volume\ of\ water}  

Mass\ of\ water=1 kg/L \times {50.0\ L}  

Mass of water  = 50 kg

Specific heat of water = 1 kcal/kg°C  

ΔT = ?

For slice of pizza:  

Q = 500 kcal

So,

50\times 1\times \Delta T=500  

ΔT = 10°C  

Increase in temperature = 10°C
