<span>The answer is 1. Carbon dioxide has two covalent bonds amid every oxygen atom and the carbon atom. When molecules are balanced, though, the atoms pull similarly on the electrons and the control distribution is uniform. Symmetrical molecules are therefore nonpolar.</span>

Use bond energies to calculate the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane. Average bond energies in kJ/mol C-C 347, C
ivanzaharov [21]

The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane 2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O calculated from the average bond energies of the compounds is -2860 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O  (1)  

The enthalpy of reaction (1) is given by:

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}   (2)

Where:

r: is for reactants

p: is for products

The bonds of the compounds of reaction (1) are:

  • 2CH₃CH₃: 2 moles of 6 C-H bonds + 2 moles of 1 C-C bond
  • 7O₂: 7 moles of 1 O=O bond  
  • 4CO₂: 4 moles of 2 C=O bonds  
  • 6H₂O: 6 moles of 2 H-O bonds

Hence, the enthalpy of reaction (1) is (eq 2):

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}

\Delta H = 2*\Delta H_{CH_{3}CH_{3}} + 7\Delta H_{O_{2}} - (4*\Delta H_{CO_{2}} + 6*\Delta H_{H_{2}O})      

\Delta H = 2*(6*\Delta H_{C-H} + \Delta H_{C-C}) + 7\Delta H_{O=O} - (4*2*\Delta H_{C=O} + 6*2*\Delta H_{H-O})  

\Delta H = [2*(6*413 + 347) + 7*498 - (4*2*799 + 6*2*467)] kJ/mol  

\Delta H = -2860 kJ/mol          

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane is -2860 kJ/mol.

Why was Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment so important?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Answer is 'B' I think

Explanation:

Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment proved the existence of a small massive center to atoms, which would later be known as the nucleus of an atom. Through previous experiments of shooting alpha particles, Rutherford knew they had considerable mass and speed.

How would you prepare 250 mL of 0.125 M HCl from concentrated HCl (aq) that is 38.0% by mass with a density of 1.19 g/mL
hoa [83]
<h2>Step 1 : Identify the given </h2>

Volume = 250mL

Density = 1.19 g/ML

<h2>Step 2 . Calculate the mass of HCL </h2>

Density = mass/volume

∴Mass = Density * Volume

= 1.19g/mL* 250mL

= 297,5g

<h2>Step 3 : Calculate the total mass of the solution, given that concentration HCL is 38% </h2>

Mass of the total solution can be calculated by the following :

38% = Mc /297.5 * 100

Mc = 38/100 *297.5

= 113.05grams

• Finally, this means that mass of the total solution of 0.125M HCL i,s 113grams, ,you would use this mass to prepare 250 mL of 0.125 M HCl from concentrated HCl (aq) that is 38.0%

How many atoms are there in 24 moles of Fe?
Semenov [28]

Answer: There are 145 \times 10^{23} atoms in 24 moles of Fe.

Explanation:

According to the mole concept, 1 mole of a substance contains 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms.

Therefore, atoms present in 24 moles of Fe are calculated as follows.

24 mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms/mol\\= 144.52 \times 10^{23} atoms\\or,  145 \times 10^{23} atoms

Thus, we can conclude that there are 145 \times 10^{23} atoms in 24 moles of Fe.
