The chemical reaction for this is:

 

2 C2H6 + 7 O2 => 4 CO2 + 6 H2O

 

Solving for CO2 with each reactant will give:

 

21.0 g C2H6 x (1 mol C2H6/30.08 g C2H6) x (6 mol H2O/2 mol C2H6) x (18 g H2O/1 mol H2O) = 37.70 g H2O

 

110 g O2 x (1 mol O2/32.00 g O2) x (6 mol CO2/7 mol O2) x (18 g H2O/1 mol H2O) = 53.04 g H2O

 

Since the amount of H2O in C2H6 is lower therefore C2H6 is the limiting reactant and the maximum amount of water is only 38 g H2O (2 significant digits)


ANswer:

38 g water

The number of energy levels to which an electron can jump depends on the
Kitty [74]
The number of energy levels to which an electron can jump depends on the amount of energy the electron possesses. Each energy level has a specific amount of energy an electron needs to have before it can be in there. So, if an electron doesn't have enough energy to be in that energy level then it won't jump to that higher level.

Calculate the percent ionization of nitrous acid in a solution that is 0.139 M in nitrous acid. The acid dissociation constant o
anzhelika [568]
Ok first, we have to create a balanced equation for the dissolution of nitrous acid.

HNO2 <-> H(+) + NO2(-)

Next, create an ICE table

           HNO2   <-->  H+        NO2-
[]i        0.139M          0M       0M
Δ[]      -x                   +x         +x
[]f        0.139-x          x           x

Then, using the concentration equation, you get

4.5x10^-4 = [H+][NO2-]/[HNO2]

4.5x10^-4 = x*x / .139 - x

However, because the Ka value for nitrous acid is lower than 10^-3, we can assume the amount it dissociates is negligable, 

assume 0.139-x ≈ 0.139

4.5x10^-4 = x^2/0.139

Then, we solve for x by first multiplying both sides by 0.139 and then taking the square root of both sides.

We get the final concentrations of [H+] and [NO2-] to be x, which equals 0.007M.

Then to find percent dissociation, you do final concentration/initial concentration.

0.007M/0.139M = .0503 or 

≈5.03% dissociation.

Cans of regular soda have volumes with a mean of 14.5 oz and a standard deviation of 0.18 oz. What is the maximum "usual" value
tangare [24]

Answer:

14.68 oz

Explanation:

The mean volume is the average volume of all the regular soda cans put together; 14.5 oz. The standard deviation 0.18 oz is the maximum deviation from the mean. It can be 14.5-0.18= 14.32 oz which is the usual minimum or 14.5 + 0.18=14.68 oz which is the usual maximum
