Answer the following question: Ethanol, C2H5OH, is considered clean fuel because it burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide an

d water with few trace pollutants. If 150.0 g of H2O are produced during the combustion of ethanol, how many grams of ethanol were present at the beginning of the reaction?

Answer:

127.88 grams of ethanol were present at the beginning of the reaction

Explanation:

Firstly, let's make the combustion reaction:

C₂H₅OH  +  3O₂  →  2CO₂  +  3H₂O

By 1 mol of ethanol, you can make 3 mole of water.

Mole of water = Water mass / Molar mass

150g / 18g/m = 8.3 mole

3 mole of water came from 1 mol of ethanol

8.3 mole came from (8.3 .1)/3 = 2.78 mole of ethanol

Molar mass ethanol = 46 g/m

Mole . molar mass = mass

2.78 m .  46g/m = 127.88 g

How many carbon atoms are there in one molecule of CH3FO?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Brainliest pls

Explanation:

1 mole of a substance contains Avagadro’s number of particles,

i.e. 6.023*10^23

By unitary method,

5 moles of oxygen contains 5 times the Avagadro’s number of particles

i.e. 5* (6.023*10^23) = 3.0115*10^24 number of particles.

Now, the further answer depends on what particles the question concentrates on.

If number of atoms are asked , the above answer must be multiplied by 2, because oxygen is a diatomic gas and each atom contributes to be a particle.

therefore, 5 moles of oxygen has 6.023*10^24 atoms.

If number of molecules asked, the above answer is directly written...

What was Ernest Rutherford's experiment?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.

Explanation:

In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.

He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.

You have been asked to prove that the Oil Spill Eater speeds up the reaction as you found above. Describe the basic set up of a
andriy [413]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 3. Run a test reaction of crude oil with ocean water over time with Oil Spill Eater present

Explanation:

In any laboratory experiment, all the apparatus needed to carry out a particular experiment must be provided. In this case, our apparatus will be crude oil with ocean water and oil spill eater which is the enzyme used.

We can then run a test reaction of crude oil with ocean water over time with Oil Spill Eater present.
