What are the requirements for combustion of a candle?

Chemistry
1 answer:
cestrela7 [59]3 years ago
7 0
For a candle to burn, it requires a spark, which provides the activation energy for the oxidation reaction of the hydrocarbon making the candle.
It also requires oxygen to facilitate the oxidation of the hydrocarbon.
Therefore the two main requirements of combustion of a candle are oxygen and a spark (or an initial flame)

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

<u>Ans: 650 J = 155 calories</u>


<u>Given:</u>

Energy in joules = 650 J

<u>To determine:</u>

The energy in calories

<u>Explanation:</u>

1 joule = 0.2388 calories

Therefore, 650 joules = 0.2388 calories * 650 J/1 J = 155 calories

What is potiential and kinetic engergy? pls someone answer my question
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Potential Energy is stored energy or energy of position (gravitational). The object isn't moving. For example, a ball being held is potential energy because the object isn't moving but it has the potential of turning into kinetic energy.

Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion. For example, running. You are moving, and there is clear action and activity

If 16.4 grams of copper (II) bromide react with 22.7 grams of sodium chloride, how many grams of sodium bromide are formed?
fomenos

The amount of sodium bromide that would be formed from the reaction will be 7.5524 grams

<h3>Stoichiometric calculation</h3>

Looking at the equation of the reaction:

CuBr_2 + 2NaCl --- > CuCl_2 + 2NaBr

The mole ratio of CuBr2 and NaCl is 1:2.

Mole of 16.4 grams of CuBr2 = 16.4/223.37

                                                 = 0.0734 moles

Mole of 22.7 grams of NaCl = 22.7/58.44

                                                 = 0.3884 moles

Equivalent mole of NaCl = 0.1468 moles

Thus, NaCl is in excess while CuBr2 is limiting.

Mole ratio of CuBr2 and NaBr = 1:1

Mass of 0.0734 mole NaBr = 0.0734 x 102.894

                                              = 7.5524 grams

Be sure to answer all parts. for each reaction, find the value of δso. report the value with the appropriate sign. (a) 3 no2(g)
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Change in entropy for the reaction is

ΔS° = -268.13 J/K.mol

Explanation:

To calculate the change in entropy for the balanced reaction, we require the natural entropy of all the reactants and products in the reaction.

3 NO₂(g) + H₂O(l) → 2 HNO₃(l) + NO(g)

From Literature.

S°(NO₂) = 240.06 J/K.mol

S°(H₂O) = 69.91 J/K.mol

S°(HNO₃) = 155.60 J/K.mol

S°(NO) = 210.76 J/K.mol

These are the entropies of the reactants and products under standard conditions of 298.15 K and 1 atm.

Note that

ΔS° = Σ nᵢS°(for products) - Σ nᵢS°(for reactants)

Σ nᵢS°(for products) = [2 × S°(HNO₃)] + [1 × S°(NO)]

= (2 × 155.60) + (1 × 210.76) = 521.96 J/K.mol

Σ nᵢS°(for reactants) = [3 × S°(NO₂)] + [1 × S°(H₂O)]

= (3 × 240.06) + (1 × 69.91) =790.09 J/K.mol

ΔS° = Σ nᵢS°(for products) - Σ nᵢS°(for reactants)

ΔS° = 521.96 - 790.09 = -268.13 J/K.mol

Hope this Helps!!
