Answer:

The mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ is 2 : 8, which simplifies to 1 : 4.

Explanation:

The mole ratio is the relative proportion of the moles of products or reactants that participate in the reaction according to the chemical equation.

The chemical equation given is:

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10H₂O

Once you check that the equation is balanced, you can set the mole ratios for all the reactants and products. The coefficients used in front of each reactant and product, in the balanced chemical equation, tells the mole ratios.

In this case, they are: 2 mol C₄H₁₀ : 13 mol O₂ : 8 mol CO₂ : 10 mol H₂O

Since you are asked about the mole ratio of C₄H₁₀ and CO₂ it is:

2 mol C₄H₁₀ : 8 mol CO₂ , which dividing by 2, simplifies to

1 mol C₄H₁₀ : 4 mol CO₂, or

1 : 2.

The tendency to combust is a chemical property. O True O False

erastova [34]

Answer:

The correct option is;

True

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction between components of a combustion reaction which are;

1) A fuel

2) An oxidizing agent

The oxidizing agent or oxidant in a combustion reaction consist mainly of oxygen.

A combustion reaction is an oxidation and reduction (redox) heat evolving (exothermic) reaction that takes place at high temperatures and produces smoke which consists of gaseous mixture of chemicals and sometimes very small solid particles

An exothermic reaction can be classed either as rapid, spontaneous, or explosive

A spontaneous exothermic reaction is one that begins on its own in atmospheric conditions and room temperature as the heat required to begin the reaction is produced by the initial oxidation of the reacting fuel

Example of a substance that undergoes spontaneous oxidation reaction is white phosphorus.

According to collision theory, what three factors govern the effect of temperature on the rate of a chemical reaction?

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Collision theory states that the rate constant for a chemical reaction is composed

of three factors, (1) the absolute number of collisions, Z, between molecules; (2) The

fraction of collisions, f, with an energy greater than the activation energy; and (3) the

fraction of molecules, p, in which the molecules are in the correct orientation to react.

k = Zfp Equation 1

The absolute number of collisions, Z, increases with temperature. However, it has

been shown that at 25o

C, the increase in the number of collisions accompanying a 10o

increase in temperature accounts for only about 2% of the increase in the reaction rate.

Similarly, while it is important that molecules be in the proper orientation to react when

they collide, molecular orientation is independent of temperature. Thus it follows that the

major factor controlling reaction rates is the fraction, f, of molecules in the reaction

mixture with an energy greater than the activation energy. This factor, f, depends on the

absolute temperature. It has been shown that f is related to Ea by the following equation
