Answer: The number of moles of CO_2 produced are, 0.287 moles.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of O_2 = 14.9 g

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of O_2

\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{Given mass }O_2}{\text{Molar mass }O_2}

\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{14.9g}{32g/mol}=0.466mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of CO_2

The balanced chemical equation is:

2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 10H_2O+8CO_2

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 13 mole of O_2 react to give 8 moles of CO_2

So, 0.466 mole of O_2 react to give \frac{8}{13}\times 0.466=0.287 mole of CO_2

Therefore, the number of moles of CO_2 produced are, 0.287 moles.

A buffer is a solution that is a mixture of either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Whe
leva [86]

Answer:

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.

Explanation:

<em>Which of the statements correctly describe the properties of a buffer?</em>

a. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. TRUE. The conjugate base neutralizes the excess of hydrogen protons.

b. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base. TRUE.

c. An acidic buffer solution is a mixture of a weak base and its conjugate acid. FALSE. This is a basic buffer solution.

d. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. FALSE. The weak acid will react with the hydroxyl ions from the added base.

e. The weak acid of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution. TRUE. These hydrogen protons will form water.

f. The conjugate base of an acidic buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution. FALSE. It will accept hydrogen protons.

If an insect population increases and then decreases as the available supply of food changes, what does this demonstrate
Semenov [28]
D.

This is self-regulation because when the population of the insects becomes too large, it regulates itself and starts to decrease due to a shortage of resources.

If oxygen is removed from a sample of air as iron rust, what happens to the particle pressure of oxygen in the air?
klasskru [66]

Answer : It increases

Rusting is where oxygen binds to iron and forms iron oxide.

So once iron rusts, there is oxygen, just not in air; it's in the iron oxide.


All reactions are reversible, albeit at different rates (the "irreversible" ones are still reversible, but much slower given that they take so much collision luck and energy.

What is the best description of what Becquerel observed in his experiment?
myrzilka [38]

The answer is: D.unstable nuclei emitting high-energy particles as they formed more stable compositions.

Those high-energy particles are alpha particles , beta particles , gamma radiation.

For example, the decay chain of ²³⁸U is called the uranium series.

Decay start with U-238 and ends with Pb-206. There are several alpha and beta minus decays.

Antoine Henri Becquerel (1852 – 1908) was a French physicist and the first person to discover evidence of radioactivity.

Becquerel wrapped fluorescing crystal (uranium salt potassium uranyl sulfate) in a cloth, along with the photographic plate and a copper Maltese cross.

Several days later, he discovered that a image of the cross appeared on the plate.

The uranium salt was emitting radiation.

Because of this discovery, Becquerel won a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, which he shared with Marie Curie and Pierre Curie.

If 5,800 j of energy are applied to a 15.2 kg piece of lead, by how much does the temp change if the specific heat of lead is 0.
scoray [572]

Answer:

The answer will be 2.98K

Explanation:

Using the formula:

Q = mc∆T

Q= 5,800 (heat in joules)

m= convert 15.2kg to g which is 15200g (mass in grams)

c= 0.128 J/g °c (Specific heat capacity)

∆T=  what we need to find (temperature change)

5800J = 15200g x 0.128 x ∆T

= 2.98K
