Explain why chemical equations have to be balanced

2 answers:

5 0

Chemical equations are to be balanced to be able to follow the law of conservation of mass where it says that mass cannot be created or destroyed. Reactions should be that the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products.

According to table g, which substance forms an unsaturated solution when 80. grams of the substance are stirred into 100. grams

e-lub [12.9K]

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute is able to dissolve in a given solvent at a particular temperature. Some amount of the solute is left undissolved in the solution.

Unsaturated solution has solute in lower proportions than required to form a saturated solution.

Supersaturated solution has solute in amounts greater than a saturated solution.

We can take the help of solubility curve in order to find out the amount of a salt required to prepare a saturated solution of that salt at a particular temperature.

The solubility of KI at 10 $^{0}C$ is 136 g/ 100 mL water

The solubility of $KNO_{3}$ at $10^{0}C$ is 21 g/100 mL water.

The solubility of $NaNO_{3}$ at $10^{0}C$ is 80 g/100 mL water.

The solubility of NaCl at $10^{0}C$ is 38 g/ 100 mL water.

So the correct answer will be KI, as it would need 136 g KI / 100 mL water to form a saturated solution at $10^{0}C$ .So, if we have 80g KI/ 100mL water it would be an unsaturated solution.

Combustion of 9.511 grams of c4h10 will yield ____ grams of CO2

Flauer [41]

Answer:

$\boxed{28.81}$

Explanation:

We know we will need an equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s gather all the information in one place.

M_r: 58.12 44.01

2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ ⟶ 8CO₂ + 10H₂O

m/g: 9.511

1. Moles of C₄H₁₀

$\text{Moles of C$_{4}$H$_{10} $} = \text{ 9.511 g C$_{4}$H$_{10} $} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol C$_{4}$H$_{10} $}}{\text{ 58.12 g C$_{4}$H$_{10} $}} = \text{0.1636 mol C$_{4}$H$_{10}$}$

2. Moles of CO₂

The molar ratio is 8 mol CO₂:2 mol C₄H₁₀

$\text{Moles of CO}_{2} =\text{0.1636 mol C$_{4}$H$_{10} $} \times \dfrac{\text{8 mol CO}_{2}}{\text{2 mol C$_{4}$H$_{10}$}} = \text{0.6546 mol CO}_{2}$

3. Mass of CO₂

$\text{Mass of CO}_{2} = \text{0.6546 mol CO}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{44.01 g CO}_{2}}{\text{1 mol CO}_{2}} = \textbf{28.81 g CO}_{2}\\\\\text{The combustion will form $\boxed{\textbf{28.81 g CO}_{2}}$}$
