How much heat is released when 75 g of octane is burned completely if the enthalpy of combustion is -5,500 kJ/mol CsH18? C8H18 +

aalyn [17]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 3600 kJ

Explanation :

Mass of octane = 75 g

Molar mass of octane = 114.23 g/mole

Enthalpy of combustion = -5500 kJ/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of octane.

$\text{ Moles of octane}=\frac{\text{ Mass of octane}}{\text{ Molar mass of octane}}=\frac{75g}{114.23g/mole}=0.656moles$

Now we have to calculate the heat released in the reaction.

As, 1 mole of octane released heat = -5500 kJ

So, 0.656 mole of octane released heat = 0.656 × (-5500 kJ)

= -3608 kJ

≈ -3600 kJ

Therefore, the heat released in the reaction is 3600 kJ

Which choice describes a population? A. all the gray squirrels that live in a forest B. a nonliving factor in an organism's envi

goldenfox [79]

I believe D. because all the organisms that live in a lake can be a bunch of living things that would be considered a population and not a species. I canceled out B. from the get go because, I don’t believe non living organisms can be in a population ?

Please get back to me if I’m right or wrong :)

Answer : Metal containers are not used for storing acid because most of the time acid reacts with almost every metal and produces salts or oxides which alters the acid characteristics making it useless .......
