The combustion reaction of hexane:

2 C6H14 + 19 O2 = 12 CO2 + 14 H2O

2 mol C6H14 ---------> 12 mol CO2
x mol C6H14 ---------> 18.4 mol CO2

12 * x = 18.4 * 2

12 x = 36.8

x = 36.8 / 12

x = 3.067 moles of CO2

hope this helps!.

A sample of gas is held at 1000C at a volume of 20 L. If the volume is increased to 40 L, what is the new temperature of the gas

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The new temperature will be 2546 K or 2273 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial temperature = 1000 °C =1273 K

The volume = 20L

The volume increases to 40 L

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

V1/T1 = V2/T2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 20L

⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 1273 K

⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 40L

⇒with T2 = the new temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

20L/ 1273 K = 40L / T2

T2 = 40L / (20L/1273K)

T2 = 2546 K

The new temperature will be 2546 K

This is 2546-273 = 2273 °C

Since the volume is doubled, the temperature is doubled as well

Be sure to answer all parts. Write the balanced equations corresponding to the following rate expressions: a) rate = − 1 3 Δ[CH4

Alinara [238K]

Answer : The balanced equations will be:

(a) $3CH_4+2H_2O+CO_2\rightarrow 4CH_3OH$

(b) $2N_2O_5\rightarrow 2N_2+5O_2$

(c) $2H_2+2CO_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2CO_3$

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

$aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

$Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

Now we have to determine the balanced equations corresponding to the following rate expressions.

(a) $Rate=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[CH_4]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}=-\frac{d[CO_2]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{4}\frac{d[CH_3OH]}{dt}$
