Answer:

a. 18.75 mol of O₂

b. 35.008 g   of O₂

c. 137868 g   of O₂

Explanation:

a.

Based on the balanced equation the molar ratio of C₈H₁₈ : O₂(g) = 2:25  Therefore, 1.50 mol of C₈H₁₈ = 25/2 x 1.5 = 18.75 mol of O₂

b.

Given, mass of C₈H₁₈ = 10.0 g  

Molar mass of C₈H₁₈ = (12 x 8) + (18 x 1) = 114 g/mol

Moles of C₈H₁₈ = 10.0 g/ 114 g/mol = 0.08772

Based on the balanced equation the molar ratio of C₈H₁₈ : O₂(g) = 2:25  

Therefore, 0.08772 mol of C₈H₁₈ = 25/2 x 0.08772 = 1.0965 mol of O₂

Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ = 1.0965 mol x 32 g/mol = 35.008 g  

c.

Given, density of C₈H₁₈ = 0.692 g/ml

Volume of C₈H₁₈ = 15.0 gal

Volume of C₈H₁₈ = 15.0 gal x 3785.41 ml/ 1 gal = 56781.15 ml

Mass of C₈H₁₈ = density of C₈H₁₈ x Volume of C₈H₁₈

                         = 0.692 g/ml x 56781.15 ml = 39292.5 g  

Molar mass of C₈H₁₈ = 114 g/mol

Moles of C₈H₁₈ = 39292.5 g / 114 g/mol = 344.67 mol

Based on the balanced equation the molar ratio of C₈H₁₈ : O₂(g) = 2:25  

Therefore, 344.67 mol of C₈H₁₈ = 25/2 x 344.67 = 4308.375 mol of O₂

Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ = 4308.375 mol x 32 g/mol = 137868 g

Consider the reaction 2CO * O2 —&gt; 2 CO2 what is the percent yield of carbon dioxide (MW= 44g/mol) of the reaction of 10g of c
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Y = 62.5%

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for the given chemical reaction whereby carbon dioxide is produced in excess oxygen, it is firstly necessary to calculate the theoretical yield of the former throughout the reacted 10 grams of carbon monoxide:

m_{CO_2}^{theoretical}=10gCO*\frac{1molCO}{28gCO}*\frac{2molCO_2}{2molCO}  *\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2}\\\\ m_{CO_2}^{theoretical}=16gCO_2

Finally, given the actual yield of the CO2-product, we can calculate the percent yield as shown below:

Y=\frac{10g}{16g} *100\%\\\\Y=62.5\%

Best regards!
