Which formula is a molecular compound? H2O2 CaO MgS NaCl

A sentence where kinetic energy of matter and temperature are both explained

Alona [7]

For me to explain this clearly, you will need to refer to a heating curve graph in google.

If you refer to the graph, when a temperature is constant, the average kinetic energy also remains constant.

But when the temperature rises, the average kinetic energy also increases.

This is because when temperature increases, the particles are getting further from each other which when they are moving further, their kinetic energy increases. Thus, whenever there is an increase or decrease in temperature, it in turns increases or decreases average kinetic energy.

A power plant is driven by the combustion of a complex fossil fuel having the formula C11H7S. Assume the air supply is composed

AlekseyPX

(a) 4C_11 H_7S + 55O_2 → 44CO_2 + 14H_2O + 4SO_2 + 20.68N_2;

(b) 4C_11 H_7S + 66O_2 → 44CO_2 + 14H_2O + 4SO_2 + 248.2N_2 + 11O_2;

(c) 23 900 kg air; (d) air:fuel = 10.2; (e) air:fuel = 12.2:1

(a) Balanced equation including N_2 from air

The balanced equation ignoring N_2 from air is

4C_11 H_7S + 55O_2 → 44CO_2 + 14H_2O + 4SO_2

Moles of N_2 =55 mol O_2 × (3.76 mol N_2/1 mol O_2) = 206.8 mol N_2

Including N_2 from air, the balanced equation is

4C_11 H_7S + 55O_2 → 44CO_2 + 14H_2O + 4SO_2 + 206.8N_2

(b) Balanced equation for 120 % stoichiometric combustion

Moles of O_2 = 55 mol O_2 × 1.20 = 66.00 mol O_2

Excess moles O_2 = (66.00 – 55) mol O_2 = 11.00 mol O_2

Moles of N_2 = 66.00 mol O_2 × (3.76 mol N_2/1 mol O_2) = 248.2 mol N_2

The balanced equation is

4C_11 H_7S + 66O_2 → 44CO_2 + 14H_2O + 4SO_2 + 248.2N_2 + 11O_2

(c) Minimum mass of air

Moles of O_2 required = 1700 kg C_11 H_7S

× (1 kmol C_11 H_7S/185.24 kg C_11 H_7S) × (55 kmol O_2/4 kmol C_11 H_7S)

= 126.2 kmol O_2

Mass of O_2 = 126.2 kmol O_2 × (32.00 kg O_2/1 kmol O_2) = 4038 kg O_2

Mass of N_2 required = 126.2 kmol O_2 × (3.76 kmol N_2/1 kmol O_2)

× (28.01 kg N_2/1 kmol N_2) = 13 285 kg N_2

Mass of air = Mass of N_2 + mass of O_2 = (4038 + 13 285) kg = 17 300 kg air

(d) Air:fuel mass ratio for 100 % combustion

Air:fuel = 17 300 kg/1700 kg = 10.2 :1

(e) Air:fuel mass ratio for 120 % combustion

Mass of air = 17 300 kg × 1.20 = 20 760 kg air

Air:fuel = 20 760 kg/1700 kg = 12.2 :1

Mercuric oxide (HgO) is heated and forms liquid mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2) gas. How would you characterize this reaction?

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Decomposition reaction.

Explanation:

Decomposition reaction -

It is the type of reaction, where a single entity breaks down into various products under the influence of some external factors , like heat and sunlight , is referred to as a decomposition reaction.

From the question,

The reaction is -

2 HgO → 2 Hg + O₂

Hence ,

A single compound HgO breaks down to two entities , i.e. , Hg and O₂.
