Acetylene gas, C2H2, releases large quantities of heat when it burns, making it ideal for welding applications. This gas is gene

rated by reacting calcium carbide with excess water. Calcium hydroxide is a byproduct of this reaction. If you needed 26kg of acetylene to fill a cylinder, how many kg calcium carbide would you need to order?

Answer:

64 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the number of kg need to ordered is shown below:

As we know that

$CaC_2 + 2H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)^2 + C_2H_2$

Now as we know that

1 mole of $C_2H_2$ generated from 1 mole of $CaC_2$

Now

26g of $C_2H_2$ generated from 64g of $CaC_2$

And,

26kg of $C_2H_2$ generated from

= $\frac{64g\times26Kg}{26g}$

= 64kg $CaC_2$

Hence, the number of kg that required for ordering the calcium carbide is 64 kg

Can someone help me I would really appreciate it

The condensed formula would be CH3-CH(CH4)-CH2-CH(CH4)-CH2-CH(CH4)-CH3. The molecular formula would be C10H25.

Determine the [h3o+] of a 0.210 m solution of formic acid.

Nataly [62]

When the Pka for formic acid = 3.77
and Pka = -㏒ Ka
3.77 = -㏒ Ka
∴Ka = 1.7x10^-4

when Ka = [H+][HCOO-}/[HCOOH]

when we have Ka = 1.7x10^-4 &[HCOOH] = 0.21 m
so by substitution: by using ICE table value
1.7x10^-4 = X*X / (0.21-X)
(1.7x10^-4)*(0.21-X) = X^2 by solving this equation for X

∴X = 0.0059
∴[H+] = 0.0059
∴PH= -㏒ [H+]
= -㏒ 0.0059
= 2.23

Match the following aqueous solutions with the appropriate letter from the column on the right.1. 0.19 m AgNO3 2. 0.17 m CrSO4 3

vichka [17]

Answer:

0.13 m of $Mn(NO_3)_2$ → Highest boiling point

0.19 m of $AgNO_3$ → Second Highest boiling point

0.17 m of $CrSO_4$ → Third highest boiling point

0.31 m Sucrose (nonelectrolyte) → Lowest boiling point

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling is given by :

$\Delta T_b=i\times k_b\times m$

Where :

i = van't Hoff factor

$k_b$ = Molal Elevation constant of solvent

m = molaity of the solution

1) 0.19 m of $AgNO_3$

$AgNO_3\rightarrow Ag^++NO_3^{-}$

i = 2 (electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.19

Elevation is boiling point of solution:

$\Delta T_b=2\times k_b\times 0.19 m$

$\Delta T_b=0.38 m\times k_b$

2) 0.17 m of $CrSO_4$

$CrSO_4\rightarrow Cr^{2+}+SO_4^{2-}$

i = 2 (electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.17

Elevation is boiling point solution :

$\Delta T_b=2\times k_b\times 0.17 m$

$\Delta T_b=0.34 m\times k_b$

3) 0.13 m of $Mn(NO_3)_2$

$Mn(NO_3)_2\rightarrow Mn^{2+}+2NO_3^{-}$

i = 3 (electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.13

Elevation is boiling point solution :

$\Delta T_b=3\times k_b\times 0.13 m$

$\Delta T_b=0.39 m\times k_b$

4) 0.31 m Sucrose (nonelectrolyte)

i = 1 ( non electrolyte)

Molality of the solution = 0.31 m

Elevation is boiling point solution :

$\Delta T_b=1\times k_b\times 0.31 m$

$\Delta T_b=0.31 m\times k_b$

Higher the value of elevation in temperature higher will be the boiling point of the solution .

The decreasing order of solution from highest boiling point to lowest boiling point is :

$0.39 m\times k_b>0.38 m\times k_b>0.34 m\times k_b>0.31 m\times k_b$

0.13 m of $Mn(NO_3)_2$ → Highest boiling point

0.19 m of $AgNO_3$ → Second Highest boiling point

0.17 m of $CrSO_4$ → Third highest boiling point

0.31 m Sucrose (nonelectrolyte) → Lowest boiling point
