Answer:

Explanation:

There are three different elements in given chemical equation. These elements are hydrogen, oxygen and carbon.

Chemical equation:

2CH₄ + 4O₂ → 2CO₂ + 4H₂O

This equation shows the burning of methane. When methane burns in the presence of oxygen it produced water and carbondioxide.

We can see that all the reactant and product are made up of only three elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

There are two reactant and two products in given reaction.

This reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

We can see that there are two carbon eight hydrogen and eight oxygen atoms on both side of equation.

This law was given by French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

What acids in alcohol make it evaporate

fgiga [73]

The acids found in alcohol that make it evaporate are called organic acids.

An organic acid is an organic compound that has acidic properties. There are two types: one has a carboxyl (COOH) group, and the other type has a phenol group.

The most common organic acids are those with a carboxyl group and include acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid and all fatty acids. Perfumes include organic acid in their composition to make them volatile. Volatile substances evaporate easily, and this is important for perfumes. They need to dissipate easily into the surrounding environment and spread their good smell.

A sample of a gas at 25°C has a volume of 150 mL when its pressure is 0.947 atm. What will the temperature of the gas be at a pr

sertanlavr [38]

Answer: The temperature of the gas at a pressure of 0.987 atm and volume of 144mL is $25.16^0C$

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 0.947 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 0.987 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 150 ml

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = 144 ml

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = $25^0C=(25+273.15)K=298.15K$

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = ?

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

$\frac{0.947\times 150}{298.15}=\frac{0.987\times 144}{T_2}$

$T_2=298.31K=(298.31-273.15)^0C=25.16^0C$

The temperature of the gas at a pressure of 0.987 atm and volume of 144mL is $25.16^0C$

Gennadij [26K]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

The conversion of cyclopropane to propene occurs with a first-order rate constant of 2.42 × 10⁻² hr⁻¹. How long will it take for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from an initial concentration 0.080 mol/L to 0.053 mol/L?

Answer : The time taken will be, 17.0 hr

Explanation :

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$
