Combustion of hydrocarbons is when  C and H containing compounds are burnt in O₂
the balanced chemical reaction for combustion of C₄H₁₀ (butane) is as follows;
2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ ---> 8CO₂ + 10H₂O
the stoichiometry of C₄H₁₀ to CO₂ is 2;4, simplified ratio is 1:2
this means that for every 1 mole of butane used up,4 moles of CO₂ are formed
molar mass of butane - (12 g/mol *4) + (1 g/mol * 10) = 58 g/mol
58 g of butane      -  1 mol 
Therefore 4.37 g of butane - 1/58 g/mol * 4.37g = 0.075 mol
1 mol of butane forms --> 4 mol of CO₂
Therefore 0.075 mol of butane forms = 4 x 0.075 mol = 0.3 mol of CO₂
molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
mass of CO₂ formed = 0.3 mol * 44 g/mol = 13.2 g of CO₂ is formed

An element with an electronegativity of 0.9 bonds with an element with an electronegativity of 3.1.. Which phase best describes
eduard
Electronegativity is the strength an atom has to attract a bonding pair of electrons to itself. When a chlorine atom covalently bonds to another chlorine atom, the shared electron pair is shared equally. The electron density that comprises the covalent bond is located halfway between the two atoms.

But what happens when the two atoms involved in a bond aren’t the same? The two positively charged nuclei have different attractive forces; they “pull” on the electron pair to different degrees. The end result is that the electron pair is shifted toward one atom.

ATTRACTING ELECTRONS: ELECTRONEGATIVITIES

The larger the value of the electronegativity, the greater the atom’s strength to attract a bonding pair of electrons. The following figure shows the electronegativity values of the various elements below each element symbol on the periodic table. With a few exceptions, the electronegativities increase, from left to right, in a period, and decrease, from top to bottom, in a family.

Electronegativities give information about what will happen to the bonding pair of electrons when two atoms bond. A bond in which the electron pair is equally shared is called a nonpolar covalent bond. You have a nonpolar covalent bond anytime the two atoms involved in the bond are the same or anytime the difference in the electronegativities of the atoms involved in the bond is very small.



Now consider hydrogen chloride (HCl). Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. The electron pair that is bonding HCl together shifts toward the chlorine atom because it has a larger electronegativity value.

A bond in which the electron pair is shifted toward one atom is called a polar covalent bond. The atom that more strongly attracts the bonding electron pair is slightly more negative, while the other atom is slightly more positive. The larger the difference in the electronegativities, the more negative and positive the atoms become.

Now look at a case in which the two atoms have extremely different electronegativities — sodium chloride (NaCl). Sodium chloride is ionically bonded. An electron has transferred from sodium to chlorine. Sodium has an electronegativity of 1.0, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0.

That’s an electronegativity difference of 2.0 (3.0 – 1.0), making the bond between the two atoms very, very polar. In fact, the electronegativity difference provides another way of predicting the kind of bond that will form between two elements, as indicated in the following table.

Think about the lab procedure you just read. Label each factor below with V for “variable” or C for “constant”.
luda_lava [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>The temperature of the gas: V</h3>

The temperature of gas is a variable quantity. It can be changed by changing energy or pressure of gas.

<h3>The amount of gas in the tube (in terms of mass and moles): C</h3>

It is a constant entity. As mass of gas once taken can not be changed by changing temperature, pressure etc.

<h3>The radius of the tube: C</h3>

The radius of tube cannot change at any rate.

<h3>The temperature of the gas (changed by the water surrounding it):  V</h3>

It can be changed by changing the temperature of water surrounding it.

<h3>The type of gas: C</h3>

It can never be changed.

<h3>The pressure of the gas: V</h3>

It can be changed by simply changing temperature and volume of gas.

ki77a [65]
The answer would be D. This is because sulfur is on it's own, meaning one. while tri is a prefix for three so there are three oxygen atoms.
