Answer:

0.89 g of ethane

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is

C2H6(g) + 7/2 O2(g) -----------> 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g)

From this balanced reaction

30g of ethane yields 54g of water

Therefore mass of ethane necessary to obtain 1.61g of water we have:

30 × 1.61/54 = 0.89 g of ethane

Answer:

b. It should be dumped in a beaker labeled "waste copper" on one's bench during the experiment.

d. It should be disposed of in the bottle for waste copper ion when work is completed.

Explanation:

Solutions containing copper ion should never be disposed of by dumping them in a sink or in common trash cans, because this will cause pollution in rivers, lakes and seas, being a contaminating agent to both human beings and animals. They should be placed in appropriate compatible containers that can be hermetically sealed. The sealed containers must be labeled with the name and class of hazardous substance they contain and the date they were generated.

It never should be returned to the bottle containing the solution, since it can contaminate the solution of the bottle.

In the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiments there is always wastes.
