Answer:

-3108 kJ

Explanation:

Because the combustion is releasing heat, the reaction is exothermic, and because of that, the value of the enthalpy must be negative. When a reaction absorbs heat it is endothermic and the enthalpy is positive.

By the reaction given, there are 2 moles of C₂H₆ reacting. The molar mass of the compound is:

2* 12 g/mol of C + 6* 1 g/mol of H = 30 g/mol

So, 2 moles have 60 g (2mol * 30g/mol).

5.00 g --------------- -259 kJ

60 g --------------- δh

By a simple direct three rule:

5δh = -15540

δh = -3108 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given:

At constant pressure, the combustion of 5.00 g of C₂H₅  releases 259 kJ of heat.

Question:

What is ΔH for the reaction given below?

\boxed{ \ 2C_2H_6_{(g)} + 7O_2_{(g)} \rightarrow 4CO_2_{(g)} + 6H_2O_{(l)} \ }.

The Process:

Step-1

  • Relative atomic mass: C = 12.01 and H = 1.008
  • Relative molecular mass (Mr) of C₂H₅ = 2(12.01) + 6(1.008) = 30.07 g/mol

Step-2

Let us convert mass to mol of 5 g of C₂H₅.

\boxed{ \ n = \frac{mass}{Mr} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ n = \frac{5}{30.07} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ n = 0.166 \ moles \ }

Remember, the combustion of 0.166 moles of C₂H₅ releases 259 kJ of heat.

Step-3

Combustion reactions that release heat into the environment, including the type of exothermic reaction. The exothermic reaction has a negative ΔH because the product enthalpy is lower than the reactant enthalpy of the system.

And now, we will solve the problem of what is ΔH for the reaction given below.

\boxed{ \ 2C_2H_6_{(g)} + 7O_2_{(g)} \rightarrow 4CO_2_{(g)} + 6H_2O_{(l)} \ }

Notice that 2 moles of C₂H₅ take part in this reaction.

\boxed{ \ \Delta H = \frac{2 \ moles}{0.166 \ moles} \times (-259 \ kJ) \ }

\boxed{ \ \Delta H = 12.048 \times (-259 \ kJ) \ }

\boxed{ \ \Delta H \approx - 3120 \ kJ \ }

Thus, the combustion of C₂H₅ based on the equation of reaction above releases heat of 3120 kJ.

IgorLugansk [536]
I believe the most appropriate answer would be to change the core from wood to iron. This is because iron is a magnetic material while wood is not magnetic hence cant acquire magnetism. Other factors that would increase the strength of electromagnet would be; increasing the amount of electric current, and increasing the number of windings.

Answer:

0.2007 nm

3.57 cm

0.01478 g

8280000 pg

Explanation:

1)200.7 pm

1 picometer is equal to 0.001 nanometer.

1 nm = 1000 pm

200.7 pm× 1 nm / 1000 pm  = 0.2007 nm

2)0.000357 hm

1 hectometer is equal to 10,000 centimeter.

1 hc = 10,000 cm

0.000357 hc× 10,000 cm / 1 hc = 3.57 cm

3) 14.78 mg

1 gram is equal to 1000 milligram.

1 g = 1000 mg

14.78 mg × 1 g/1000 mg = 0.01478 g

4)8.280 µg

1 microgram is equal to 10⁶ picogram.

1 µg = 1000000 pg

8.280 µg× 10⁶ pg/ 1µg = 8.280×10⁶ pg or 8280000 pg

Robert has pure samples of both D-ribose and D-arabinose, but he forgot to label them. He only has some nitric acid, the reagent
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Explanation:

Since HN03 is an oxidation substance D-ribose u.ith oxidized to form in rubric acid Ribose is chiral, but rubric acid is achiral because of its symmetry mirror level, Hence no infrared roster in the sample holder is observed.

Please find the attached file.

D-Arabinose, on either hand, gives optical aldaric acid with such a net optical rotation observed inside the polarimeter for diagnosis with HN03.

Consider the reaction of metallic copper with iron(!!) to give copper(ll) and ironin 0.77V Fe* (aq) + e-Fe (aq) Cup (aq) + 2e --
frosja888 [35]

Answer :

(a) The anode and cathode will be E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}

and E^o_{(Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+})} respectively.

(b) The emf of cell potential is 1.022 V

Explanation :

(a) The standard reduction potentials for iron and copper are:

E^o_{(Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+})}=0.77V\\E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}=0.34V

In the voltaic cell, the oxidation occurs at an anode which is a negative electrode and the reduction occurs at the cathode which is a positive electrode.

From the standard reduction potentials we conclude that, the substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction.

So, iron will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced. Copper will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The given cell reactions are:

Oxidation half reaction (anode):  Cu\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (cathode):  Fe^{3+}+1e^-\rightarrow Fe^{2+}

Thus, the anode and cathode will be E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}

and E^o_{(Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+})} respectively.

(b) Now we have to calculate the potential of a cell.

Oxidation half reaction (anode):  Cu\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (cathode):  Fe^{3+}+1e^-\rightarrow Fe^{2+}

In order to balance that electrons, we will multiple the reduction reaction by 2, we get:

Oxidation half reaction (anode):  Cu\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction half reaction (cathode):  2Fe^{3+}+2e^-\rightarrow 2Fe^{2+}

The overall cell reaction will be,

2Fe^{3+}+Cu\rightarrow Cu^{2+}+2Fe^{2+}

E^o_{[Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}]}=2\times 0.77V=1.54V

E^o_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}=0.34V

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o=E^o_{[Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}]}-E^o_{[Cu^{2+}/Cu]}

E^o=1.54V-(0.34V)=1.20V

Now we have to calculate the cell potential.

Using Nernest equation :

E_{cell}=E^o_{cell}-\frac{0.0592}{n}\log \frac{[Fe^{2+}]^2[Cu^{2+}]}{[Fe^{3+}]^2}

where,

n = number of electrons in oxidation-reduction reaction = 2

E_{cell} = emf of the cell = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

E_{cell}=1.20-\frac{0.0592}{2}\log \frac{(0.20)^2(0.25)}{(0.0001)^2}

E_{cell}=1.022V

Therefore, the emf of cell potential is 1.022 V

Answer:

A dominant allele will always allow a specific trait to show up no matter if we have two dominant copies (BB) or just one (Bb). A trait from a recessive allele will only appear if it is paired with another recessive allele
