Combustion equation of n-hexane:
2C₆H₁₄ + 19O₂ → 12CO₂ + 14H₂O
a)
Assuming we have 100 moles of air,
Oxygen = 20.9 moles
n-hexane required = 20.9/19 x 2
= 2.2 moles
LFL = Half of stoichometric amount = 2.2 / 2 = 1.1
LFL n-hexane = 1.1%
b)
1.1 volume percent required for LFL
1.1% x 1
= 0.0011 m³ of n-hexane required
<span>Their outer shells are filled So much that they don't need to bond or react with any other atoms.</span>
A mole of any chemical compound contains the same number of molecules - about 6.022 × 10²³ molecules.
So, 1 mole of H₂O₂, 1 mole of C₂H₂ and 1 mole of CO contain the same number of molecules.
