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

What are the formal charges of both chlorines and iodine in icl2?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

 Formal charge of ICl₂⁻

Formal charge = group no - ( no of non bonding electrons +no of bonds)

In I there are 7 electrons in outermost orbit . If we add one more electrons due to - ve charge on the ion , it becomes eight . This centrally placed iodine forms two single bond with two chlorine atoms on either side.

Each of chlorine atoms also contains 7 valance electrons like iodine.

So formal charge of chlorine

= group no - ( no of non bonding electrons +no of bonds)

= 7 - ( 6 + 1 )

= 0

So formal charge of iodine

= group no - ( no of non bonding electrons +no of bonds)

= 7 - ( 5 + 2 )

=0

 Formal charge of ICl₂⁺

In this case , central iodine will have only 6 valence electrons due to absence one electron.

So formal charge of chlorine in  ICl₂⁺

= group no - ( no of non bonding electrons +no of bonds)

= 7 - ( 6 + 1 )

= 0

formal charge of iodine in  in   ICl₂⁺

7 - ( 4 + 2)

= 1

Propane can be turned into hydrogen by the two-step reforming process. In the first step, propane and water react to form carbon
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

C₃H₈(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ⇒ + 10 H₂(g) + 3 CO₂(g)

Explanation:

Propane can be turned into hydrogen by the two-step reforming process.

In the first step, propane and water react to form carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The balanced chemical equation is:

C₃H₈(g) + 3 H₂O(g) ⇒ 3 CO(g) + 7 H₂(g)

In the second step, carbon monoxide and water react to form hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The balanced chemical equation is:

CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⇒ H₂(g) + CO₂(g)

In order to get the net chemical equation for the overall process, we have to multiply the second step by 3 and add it to the first step. Then, we cancel what is repeated.

C₃H₈(g) + 3 H₂O(g) + 3 CO(g) + 3 H₂O(g) ⇒ 3 CO(g) + 7 H₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) + 3 CO₂(g)

C₃H₈(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ⇒ + 10 H₂(g) + 3 CO₂(g)

Why can't we use chromatography paper to separate different colored pencils?
Sveta_85 [38]
Chromatography is a way of separating a mixture of chemicals which are in gas or liquid form.  when the paper absorbs the liquid, the different colours from the colouring pencils will not be separated because they are insoluble solid pieces,also because they are solid the colours will not be able to creep up the paper which is why chromatography can not be used to separate different coloured pencils.
