In 1983, a pilot miscalculated the fuel requirement for Air Canada Fight 143 from Montreal to Edmonton. Halfway through the flig

ht, the plane ran out of fuel because of an English-metric conversion error. Suppose that based on the distance and conditions, the flight would require at least 2.2 x 104 kg of fuel. The plane started off having 5, 756 liters in the tank when the pilot arrived. If there are 803 g of jet fuel in 1 liter, determine how much fuel (in liters) would be needed for a successful trip.

Answer:

27,397.23 L would be needed for a successful trip.

Explanation:

The problem gives us <u>the density (ρ) of the fuel,</u> by telling us that there are 803 g of fuel in 1 L, in which case:

ρ=\frac{mass}{Volume}=\frac{803g}{1L}  =803\frac{g}{L}

The required mass of fuel is 2.2 * 10⁴ kg, we can convert this value into g:

2.2 * 10⁴ kg * \frac{1000g}{1kg} = 2.2 * 10⁷ g

We calculate the required volume (V), using the mass and density:

803 g/L = \frac{2.2*10^{7}g }{V} \\V=\frac{2.2*10^{7}g }{803g/L}\\ V=27397.26 L

Thus 27,397.23 L would be needed for a successful trip.

Complete combustion of 7.40 g of a hydrocarbon produced 22.4 g of CO2 and 11.5 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
cluponka [151]
<span>C2H5 First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2. Carbon = 12.0107 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass. moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen. moles C = 0.50899 moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722 We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon. total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185 7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked. Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen. 0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669 0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5. Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is C2H5</span>

mote1985 [20]

The Molar concentration of your analyte solution is 1.17 m

<h3>What is titration reaction?</h3>
  • Titration is a chemical analysis procedure that determines the amount of a sample's ingredient by adding a precisely known amount of another substance to the measured sample, with which the desired constituent reacts in a specific, known proportion.

Make use of the titration formula.

The formula is molarity (M) of the acid x volume (V) of the acid = molarity (M) of the base x volume (V) of the base.

if the titrant and analyte have a 1:1 mole ratio. (Molarity is a measure of a solution's concentration represented as the number of moles of solute per litre of solution.)

26 x 1.8 = 40 x M

M = 26 x1.8 /40

M = 1.17

The Molar concentration of your analyte solution is 1.17 m
