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

The heat of vaporization for water is 40. 7 kJ/mol. How much heat energy must 150. 0 g of water absorb to boil away completely?
netineya [11]

The heat absorbed by the water sample for vaporization has been 6,105 kJ. Thus, option D is correct.

The heat of vaporization has been the amount of heat required to vaporize 1 gram of liquid.

The heat required for the vaporization has been given as:

Q=m\Delta H_{vap}

<h3 /><h3>Computation for the Heat of vaporization</h3>

The heat of vaporization of water has been given as, \Delta H_{vap}=40.7\;\rm kJ/mol

The mass of water sample has been, m=150\;\rm g

Substituting the values for the heat energy absorbed, <em>Q:</em>

<em />

<em />Q=150\;\times\;40.7\;\rm kJ\\&#10;\textit Q=6,105\;kJ

The heat absorbed by the water sample for vaporization has been 6,105 kJ. Thus, option D is correct.

Aphelion in miles =94290301

Perihelion in miles = 91200281

Explanation:

To convert km in mile we use the multiply the distance in km with 0.62, because there are 0.62 miles in 1 km.

Aphelion in miles = aphelion in km × 0.62

Aphelion in miles = 152081132 × 0.62

Aphelion in miles =94290301

Perihelion in miles = perihelion in km × 0.62

Perihelion in miles = 147097229 × 0.62

Perihelion in miles = 91200281

tetraphosphorous hexaoxide is formed by the reaction of phosphorous (p4) with oxygen gas. if the reaction of 75.3 g of p4 with 3
True [87]

the Percentage yield for the reaction = 48.8%

What is Percentage yield ?

The % ratio of the theoretical yield to the actual yield is known as the percent yield. It is calculated as the theoretical yield multiplied by 100% divided by the experimental yield. The percent yield is 100% if the theoretical and actual yields are equal. Because the real yield is frequently lower than the theoretical value, percent yield is typically lower than 100%. This may be due to incomplete or conflicting reactions or sample loss during recovery. If the percent yield is more than 100%, more sample than expected was retrieved from the reaction.

4 P + 3 O2 = P4O6

moles P = 75.3 g / 30.9738 g/mol= 2.43

moles O2 required = 2.43 x 3 / 4=1.82

actual moles O2 = 38.7 g /32 g/mol=1.21 so O2 is the limiting reactant

theoretical moles P4O6 = 1.21 / 3=0.403

theoretical mass P4O6 = 0.403 mol x 219.895 g/mol=88.6 g

% yield = 43.3 x 100/ 88.6 = 48.8 %

the Percentage yield for the reaction = 48.8%
