Hydrogen gas (a potential future fuel) can be formed by the reaction of methane with water according to the following equation:

CH4(g)+H2O(g)→CO(g)+3H2(g) In a particular reaction, 26.0 L of methane gas (measured at a pressure of 734 torr and a temperature of 25 ∘C) is mixed with 23.0 L of water vapor (measured at a pressure of 700 torr and a temperature of 125 ∘C). The reaction produces 26.0 L of hydrogen gas measured at STP. Part A What is the percent yield of the reaction? %

Answer:

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Explanation:

Moles of methane gas at 734 Torr and a temperature of 25 °C.

Volume of methane gas = V = 26.0 L

Pressure of the methane gas = P = 734 Torr = 0.9542 atm

Temperature of the methane gas = T = 25 °C = 298.15 K

Moles of methane gas = n

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9542 atm\times 26.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}=1.0135 mol

Moles of water vapors at 700 Torr and a temperature of 125 °C.

Volume of water vapor = V' = 23.0 L

Pressure of water vapor = P' = 700 Torr = 0.9100 atm

Temperature of  water vapor = T' = 125 °C = 398.15 K

Moles of water vapor gas = n'

P'V'=n'RT'

n'=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9100 atm\times 23.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 398.15 K}=0.6402 mol

CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO(g)+3H_2(g)

According to reaction , 1 mol of methane reacts with 1 mol of water vapor. As we can see that moles of water vapors are in lessor amount which means it is a limiting reagent and formation of hydrogen gas will depend upon moles of water vapors.

According to reaction 1 mol of water vapor gives 3 moles of hydrogen gas.

Then 0.6402 moles of water vapor will give:

\frac{3}{1}\times 0.6402 mol=1.9208 mol of hydrogen gas

Moles of hydrogen gas obtained theoretically = 1.9208 mol

The reaction produces 26.0 L of hydrogen gas measured at STP.

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Then 26 L of volume of gas will be occupied by:

\frac{1}{22.4 L}\times 26 L= 1.1607 mol

Moles of hydrogen gas obtained experimentally = 1.1607 mol

Percentage yield of hydrogen gas of the reaction:

\frac{Experimental}{Theoretical}\times 100

\%=\frac{ 1.1607 mol}{1.9208 mol}\times 100=60.42\%

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Which polymer structure should be used if a strong and heat - resistant adhesive is required?
alexira [117]

Cross-linked polymers are strong and heat - resistant hence they can be used for this purpose.

A polymer is obtained by the combination of small molecules called monomers. A polymer consists of a regular repeating unit of small molecules called monomers.

A cross-linked polymer is a polymer in which covalent bonds are used to join polymer chains together. Cross-linked polymers are strong and heat - resistant hence they can be used for this purpose.

Carvone (C10H14O) is the main component of spearmint oil. It has a pleasant aroma and mint flavor. Carvone is often added to che
marta [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon in given amount of carvone is 47.52 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of carvone = 55.4 g

Molar mass of carvone = 150.22 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of carvone}=\frac{55.4g}{150.22g/mol}=0.369mol

The chemical formula of carvone is C_{10}H_{14}O

This contains 10 moles of carbon atom, 14 moles of hydrogen atom and 1 mole  of oxygen atom

Now, calculating the mass of carbon in carvone from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Moles of carbon = (10 × 0.396) = 3.96 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

3.96mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=(3.96mol\times 12g/mol)=47.52g

Hence, the mass of carbon in given amount of carvone is 47.52 grams

If you add a solution of NaOH to a solution of H₂CO₃, two reactions occur, one after the other. Write the chemical equations for
Crazy boy [7]

We have a solution of NaOH and H₂CO₃

First, NaOH will dissociate into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions

The Na⁺ ion will substitute one of the Hydrogen atoms on H₂CO₃ to form NaHCO₃

The H⁺ released from the substitution will bond with the OH⁻ ion to form a water molecule

If there were to be another NaOH molecule, a similar substitution will take place, substituting the second hydrogen from H₂CO₃ as well to form Na₂CO₃

The lab procedure mentions that not all of the oxone may dissolve after being added to the water because the water may be satura
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The answer is (C) There are more solute molecules than water molecules.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute can be dissolved or disintegrated into the solvent. When or if the ozone  stops being dissolved in the water, it implies that the water has already taken on more ozone molecules than it can contain, meaning there are more solute molecules (ozone molecules) than there are solvent molecules (water molecules).
