Answer: 9.9 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of H_2

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{8.150g}{2g/mol}=4.08moles

b) moles of C_2H_4

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{9.330g}{28g/mol}=0.33moles

H_2(g)+C_2H_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of C_2H_4 combine with 1 mole of H_2

Thus 0.33 mole of C_2H_4 will combine with =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33 mole of H_2

Thus C_2H_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

As 1 mole of C_2H_4 give =  1 mole of C_2H_6

Thus 0.33 moles of C_2H_4 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33moles  of C_2H_6

Mass of C_2H_6=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.33moles\times 30g/mol=9.9g

Thus theoretical yield (g) of C_2H_6 produced by the reaction is 9.9 grams

The enthalpy of combustion of naphthalene (MW = 128.17 g/mol) is -5139.6 kJ/mol. How much energy is produced by burning 0.8210 g
bazaltina [42]

The energy produced by burning : -32.92 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Delta H reaction (ΔH) is the amount of heat change between the system and its environment

(ΔH) can be positive (endothermic = requires heat) or negative (exothermic = releasing heat)

The enthalpy and heat(energy) can be formulated :

\tt \Delta H=\dfrac{Q}{n}\rightarrow n=mol

The enthalpy of combustion of naphthalene (MW = 128.17 g/mol) is -5139.6 kJ/mol.

The energy released for 0.8210 g of naphthalene :

\tt Q=\Delta H\times n\\\\Q=-5139.6~kJ/mol\times \dfrac{0.8210~g}{128.17~g/mol}~\\\\Q=-32.92~kJ

Which statement best describes the amount of catalyst that remains at the end of a reaction?
Ivenika [448]
I believe the correct answer is C. The amount of catalyst is the same at the end as at the beginning of the reaction. Catalysts can't be consumed by the reaction thus is not D.
