How many molecules of co2 form when 2.00 g of c2h5oh are produced?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ronch [10]4 years ago
4 0
The reaction involved in this problem is called the combustion reaction where a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to product carbon dioxide and water. The reaction of C2H5OH would be as follows:

C2H5OH + 3O2 = 2CO2 + 3H2O

To determine the number of molecules of CO2 that is formed, we need to determine the number of moles produced from the initial amount of C2H5OH and the relation from the reaction. Then we multiply avogadros number which is equal to 6.022x10^23 molecules per mole. 

2.00 g C2H5OH ( 1 mol C2H5OH / 46.08 g C2H5OH ) ( 2 mol CO2 / 1 mol C2H5OH ) = 0.0868 mol CO2
0.0868 mol CO2 ( 6.022x10^23 molecules / mol ) = 5.23x10^22 molecules CO2

How does a ketone react with PCl5?,
Reptile [31]

When ketone is reacted with phosphorous pentachloride, chlorination takes place at the carbonyl carbon with substitution of the oxygen atom to give a geminal dichloride (with 2 Cl atoms on same carbon) according to the following equation: 

so we can say that acetone is converted into 2,2-dichloropropane by action of PCl₅

Which of the following is not included in John Dalton's modern theory of the atom?
Akimi4 [234]

The answer for the following question is option "C".

Option C is not included in the John Dalton's modern theory of an atom.

  • "It states atoms of different elements combine to form new compound" but not new elements

Explanation:

According to John's Dalton's modern theory of an atom:

1. All matter is composed of atoms.

2. Atoms cannot be created,destroyed or subdivided in the ordinary chemical reactions.

3. Atoms of one element differ in the properties from atoms of an another element.

(i.e.)Each and every atom of the element has its own unique properties of their own.

4. Atoms of one  element combine with the atoms of another element to <u>form new compound.</u>

5. Atoms that make up an element are identical to each other.
