Water can be formed in the following reaction:
Komok [63]

The  moles  of  oxygen  gas (O2) that is needed is    4  moles


 Explanation

2H2 +O2 → 2H2O

The  moles of O2  is determined using the mole  ratio  of H2:O2

that is from equation  above H2:O2  is 2:1  

If the moles of H2  is 8  moles therefore  the moles  of O2

 = 8 moles x 1/2  = 4 moles

Choose ALL TRUE statements about calorimetry from the choices below:
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

True statment

2) Styrofoam would make a good calorimeter

3) Insulating material would make a good calorimeter

Explanation:

The calorimeter is one which is insulated that is which will not absorb or let the heat to escape from it. the calorimeter is used to measure the heat change during a process so if it will allow to exchange heat with surrounding it will deviate the readings or observence.

Copper is a good conductor of heat so we cannot use it make a calorimeter.

Hence

1) Copper would make a good calorimeter : False

2) Styrofoam would make a good calorimeter: True

Styrofoam is a bad conductor or insulator so it can be and it is used for calorimeter.

3) Insulating material would make a good calorimeter : True

4) A good calorimeter should easily absorb heat : false
