Answer:
0.846 moles.
Explanation:
- This is a stichiometric problem.
- The balanced equation of complete combustion of butane is:
C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O
- It is clear from the stichiometry of the balanced equation that complete combustion of 1.0 mole of butane needs 6.5 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 5 moles of H₂O.
<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>
- 1.0 mole of C₄H₁₀ reacts with → 6.5 moles of O₂
- ??? moles of C₄H₁₀ are needed to react with → 5.5 moles of O₂
- The number of moles of C₄H₁₀ that are needed to react with 5.5 moles of O₂ = (1.0 x 5.5 moles of O₂) / (6.5 moles of O₂) = 0.846 moles.
Answer :
(1) pH = 1.27
(2) pH = 13.35
(3) The given solution is not a buffer.
Explanation :
<u>(1) 53.1 mM HCl</u>
Concentration of HCl = 
As HCl is a strong acid. So, it dissociates completely to give hydrogen ion and chloride ion.
So, Concentration of hydrogen ion= 
pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
![pH=-\log [H^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH%5E%2B%5D)


<u>(2) 0.223 M KOH</u>
Concentration of KOH = 0.223 M
As KOH is a strong base. So, it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ion and potassium ion.
So, Concentration of hydroxide ion= 0.223 M
Now we have to calculate the pOH.
![pOH=-\log [OH^-]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BOH%5E-%5D)


Now we have to calculate the pH.

<u>(3) 53.1 mM HCl + 0.223 M KOH</u>
Buffer : It is defined as a solution that maintain the pH of the solution by adding the small amount of acid or a base.
It is not a buffer because HCl is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base. Both dissociates completely.
As we know that the pH of strong acid and strong base solution is always 7.
So, the given solution is not a buffer.
Answer:
To obtain the grams of fat that the ground round has, knowing that it weighs 1.33 pounds we must pass this value to grams. Since 1 pound equals 453.59 grams, 1.33 pounds equals 603.27 (453.59 x 1.33).
Now, to obtain 29 percent of 603.27, we must make the following calculation: 603.27 / 100 x 29, which gives a total of 174.94 grams.
In this way, your reasoning is correct and it is probably a mistake in the book.
