Write the balanced equation for the reaction given below: C2H6 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O. If 16.4 L of C2H6 reacts with 0.980 mol of

O2, how many liters of carbon dioxide gas will be produced? What is the limiting reagent? How many oxygen atoms will be in this sample of carbon dioxide? How many moles of the excess reactant will be left over? How many grams of the excess reactant will be left over?

The balanced reaction: C2H6 + 7/2 O2 -> 2 CO2 + 3 H2O

We first convert volume of C2H6 to no. of moles. We use the conditions at STP where 1 mol = 22.4 L thus,

Moles C2H6 = 16.4 L/ 22.4 L =0.7321 mol

In order to determine the limiting reagent, we look at the given amounts of the reactants.

0.7321 mol C2H6 (7/2 mol O2 / 1 mol C2H6) = 2.562 mol O2

From the given amounts of the reactants, we can say that O2 is the limiting reactant since we need 2.562 mol O2 to completely react the given amount of C2H6. The excess reagent is C2H6

To calculate for the amount of products and excess reactants:

0.980 mol O2 (2 mol CO2 / (7/2 mol O2)) = 0.56 mol CO2 (22.4 L / 1 mol ) =12.544 L CO2
<span>0.980 mol O2 (1 mol C2H6 / (7/2 mol O2)) = 0.28 mol C2H6
Excess C2H6 = 0.7321 mol - 0.28 mol C2H6 = 0.4521 mol C2H6

We then use the molecular weight of C2H6 to convert the excess amount to grams.

0.4521 mol C2H6 (30.08 g C2H6 / 1 mol C2H6) = <span>13.60 g C2H6

<span>Since the limiting reagent is O2 there will be no oxygen atoms that will be left after the reaction.</span>

What is the percent composition by mass of oxygen in Ca(NO3)2 (gram-formula= 164 g/mol)?
Neko [114]
To find this, we will use this formula:

Molar mass of element
------------------------------------ x 100
Molar mass of compound

So, first lets calculate the mass of the compound as a whole. We use the atomic masses on the periodic table to determine this.

Ca: 40.078 g/mol
N2 (there is two nitrogens): 28.014 g/mol
O6 (there are six nitrogens: 3 times 2): 95.994 g/mol

When we add all of those numbers up together, we get 164.086. That is the molar mass for the whole compound. However, we are trying to figure out what percent of the compound oxygen makes up. From the molar mass, we know that 95.994 of the 164.086 is oxygen. Lets plug those numbers into our equation!

95.994
-----------
164.086

When we divide those two numbers, we get .585. When we multiply that by 100, we get 58.5.

So, the percent compostition of oxygen in Ca(NO3)2, or, calcium nitrate, is 58.5%.

Compound a is an alkene that was treated with ozone (followed by dms) to yield only 4-heptanone. Draw the major product that is
olga nikolaevna [1]

Alkenes on reacting with ozone results in the formation of ozonide which undergo reductive  cleavage in presence of dimethyl sulfide to form carbonyl compounds (aldehyde or ketone). Whereas in presence of hydrogen peroxide it undergoes oxidative cleavage to form carboxylic acids or ketones.

Since, A alkene yields 4-heptanone only on treatment with ozone and DMS thus, it implies that both the chains on the side of the double-bond are similar the product is 4-heptanone that means the double bond is present between the chains at the 4th carbon. Therefore the structure of compound A is 4,5-dipropyloct-4-ene.

The reaction is as shown in the image.

The reaction of A with m-CPBA (meta-perchlorobenzoic acid) followed by aqueous acid H_3O^{+} is shown in the image.

m-CPBA (meta-perchlorobenzoic acid) is a peracid and forms epoxides on reacting with alkenes.

An unknown amount of helium (He) gas occupies 10.5 L at 1.52 atm pressure and 335 K. What is the mass of helium gas in the conta
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The lectures in this unit cover gases. This lecture covers the Ideal Gas Law and partial pressures.

Ideal Gas Law

In our previous lecture we discovered a relationship between the pressure, volume, temperature,

and number of moles in gases. After scientists worked out the individual relationships between

pressure, volume, temperature, and the number of moles, it was clear that a single law could

bring all of these individual laws together. This unifying law is called the ideal gas law. An

ideal gas is one which follows the ideal gas law. Not all gases are perfectly ideal in this sense

but most of them are close enough to it that the law applies well.

I. Ideal Gas Law

The Ideal Gas Law unifies all these independent laws as follows:

PV = nRT

Where P = Pressure, V = Volume, T = Temperature, and n = number of moles.

The remaining value, R, is the constant which makes the rest of these factors work together

mathematically. Once the relationship between all individual factors was found it was trivial to

calculate R: it is the value of

PV

nT for any gas since they all act the same way!

There are several numerical values for R depending on which units you are using (atm or torr or

bars, L or mL, Joules (energy) etc). Our class uses this one:

R = .0821

L·atm

mole·K

The ideal gas law helps us calculate variables such as pressure, volume, temperature, or number

of moles without having to make a comparison.

For example, if 3.5 moles O2 has a volume of 27.0 L at a pressure of 1.6 atm, what is the

temperature of the sample?

Here we are given n = 3.5 moles, V = 27.0 L, P = 1.6 atm. We rearrange the ideal gas law to

solve for temperature as follows:

PV = nRT

PV

nR = T

(1.6 atm)(27.0 L)

(3.5 moles)(0.0821 L·atm/mol·K) = 150.3 K

A bottle of a commercial reagent-grade hydrochloric acid, HCI, has the following
Doss [256]

The volume of concentrated HCl : 2.073 ml

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

37% HCl by mass; density 1.19 g/mL

Required

The volume of concentrated HCl

Solution

Conversion to molarity :

37% x 1.19 g/ml =0.4403 g/ml

g/ml to mol/L :

=0.4403 g/ml x 1000 ml/L : 36.5 g/mol

=12.06 mol/L

or we can use formula :

\tt M=\dfrac{\%\times \rho\times 10}{MM}\\\\M=\dfrac{37\times 1.19\times 10}{36.5}\\\\M=12.06

Dilution formula :

M₁V₁=M₂V₂

12.06 M x V₁ = 0.1 M x 0.25 L

V₁ = 0.0021 L = 2.073 ml
