<span>molecular weight of C4H10 is = 58.1 grams

moles of butane  = </span>\frac{1.5}{58.1}  = 0.0258

Multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number. This will let you obtain the number of butane molecules: 

<span>0.0258 x 6.023 x 10^{23} molecules of butane = 1.5538 * 10^22 molecules
of butane 
</span>
<span>Now multiply this number by four (due to four carbon atoms per butane molecule) to obtain the answer: 
</span>
so, no. of carbon atoms = 4 x 1.5538 x 10^22  =  6.21 x 10^22 atoms

6,237.10²² atoms are in 1.50 g of butane

<h3><em>Further explanation</em></h3>

Stokiometry in Chemistry learn about chemicals mainly emphasizes quantitative, such as the calculation of volume, mass, number, which is related to numbers, molecules, elements, etc.

In stoichiometry therein includes

  • 1. the relative atomic mass (Ar) is a measurement of the mass of an atom relative to the mass of 1 carbon-12 atom
  • 2. The relative molecular mass (M) is the sum of the mass of all the atomic masses that make up the molecule or is the sum of the relative atomic masses that make up the molecule

M X = (average mass of 1 molecule AxBy) / 1/12 mass 1 atom C-12

M AxBy = (x.Ar A + y. Ar B)

  • 3. Mole is a unit of the number of particles where 1 mole is the number of particles contained in a substance (atom, molecule)which is equal to atoms in 12 gr C-12

1 mol = 6.0210²³ particles

While the number of moles can also be obtained by dividing the mass (in grams) by the relative mass of the element (Ar) or the relative molecular mass (M)

mole = gram / (Ar / M)

For example

1 mole of H element contains 6.02 × 10²³ H atoms

1 mole of water contains 6.02 × 10²³ water molecules.

1 mole of KCl ion  contains 6.02 × 10²³ K⁺ ions and 6.02 × 10²³ Cl⁻ ions.

We know Butane molar mass = 58 grams / mol and mass known to be 1.5 grams so the number of moles:

mole = gram / M

mole = 1.5 / 58

mole = 0.0259

So the number of moles of C atoms in Butane is:

= 4 (valence C) x number of moles of Butane

= 4. 0.0259

= 0.1036 moles

So the number of atoms of element C is

= 0.1036 x 6.02 × 10²³

= 6,237.10 ^ 22 atoms

lidiya [134]

Answer:

Throughout the overview section following portion, the description and according to particular circumstance is defined.

Explanation:

As per the question,

⇒ NH_3(aq)+H_2O\leftrightarrow NH_4+(aq)+OH-(aq)

  • A weak basis seems to be NH3. It serves as a base since the aqueous solution or phase is protonated. But NH3 +, just becoming a weak base, is therefore deprotonated into form NH3, and therefore also 90% of ammonia becomes found throughout NH3 state in aqueous solution.  

⇒ NH_3+(aq) \leftrightarrow NH_3(aq)+H+(aq)

However, it is also available in NH3 form throughout the aqueous solution much of the moment.

Which of the following best explains why you sanded the copper wire before burning it? to create less friction between the coppe
artcher [175]

The copper wire was sanded before burning in order to make sure that copper metal was exposed on the surface of the wire.

Answer: B

Explanation

The copper wire when placed in atmosphere without coating leads to oxidation of copper metal with respect to the impurities present in the atmosphere.

As copper is electropositive in nature, so electronegative ions present in the universe will try to react with copper and the copper will react easily with other elements.

So generally copper wire is coated with color or polymer coating.

In this case, the copper wire without any coating is sanded, so that the eddy sheets or polishing materials on friction with copper wire will remove the impurities by the electrostatic law of conservation of charges and charge transfer.

As the impurities are removed when copper wire is sanded, the copper atoms will be exposed on the surface of the wire leading to burning of copper in the copper wire.
