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

What is the concentration of H3O+ ions in saliva if [OH-] = 4.22 x 10-10 M? Provide the pH and the classification of this sample
OLEGan [10]

pH=4.625

The classification of this sample of saliva : acid

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The water equilibrium constant (Kw) is the product of concentration

the ions:

Kw = [H₃O⁺] [OH⁻]

Kw value at 25° C = 10⁻¹⁴

It is known [OH-] =  4.22 x 10⁻¹⁰ M

then the concentration of H₃O⁺:

\tt 10^{-14}=4.22\times 10^{-10}\times [H_3O^+]\\\\(H_3O^+]=\dfrac{10^{-14}}{4.22\times 10^{-10}}=2.37\times 10^{-5}

pH=-log[H₃O⁺]\tt pH=5-log~2.37=4.625

Saliva⇒acid(pH<7)

suppose medical records indicate that the length of newborn babies (in inches) is normally distributed with a mean of 20 and a s
Tanya [424]

Answer:

  • <u>0.6826 (68.26%)</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Find the z-scores:</u>

  • z = [X - μ ] / σ

a) z-score for 22.6 inches length

  • X = 22.6
  • μ = 20
  • σ = 2.6

  • z = [ 22.6 - 20 ] / 2.6 = 1.00

b) z-score for 17.4 inches length

  • X = 17.4
  • μ = 20
  • σ = 2.6

  • z = [ 17.4 - 20 ] / 2.6 =  - 1.00

<u>2) Probability</u>

Then, you have to find the probability that the length of an infant is between - 1.00 and 1.00 standards deviations (σ) from the mean (μ).

That is a well known value of 68%, which is part of the 68-95-99.7 empirical rule.

The most exact result is obtained from tables and is 68.26%:

  • 1 - P (z ≥ 1.00) - P (z ≤ - 1.00) = 1 - 0.1587 - 0.1587 = 0.6826 = 68.26%

Ow many coulombs of charge are needed to produce 35.2 mol of solid zinc?
Natasha2012 [34]
<span>Answer: Zn(2+) + 2e(-) -------> Zn 1 mole of Zn is deposited by 2F of electricity ... so 48.9 mole of Zn will be deposited by 48.9 X 2F = 97.8 F of electricity... as 1F = 96500 C so 97.8 F = 97.8 X 96500 = 9437700 C of electricity...</span>
