The combustion of a sample butane, C4H10 (lighter fluid) produced 2.46 grams of water. how much oxygen was used up in grams

Chemistry
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago
8 0

The balanced combustion reaction for butane is;

2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen = 32 g/mol

 

2.46g H2O(1 mol H2O/18.02g)(13 mol O2/10 mol H2O)(32g O2/1 mol O2) = 5.68g O2

Classify each of these reactions. A single reaction may fit more than one classification. Ba ( ClO 3 ) 2 ⟶ BaCl 2 + 3 O 2 Ba(ClO
Lena [83]

Answer: a) Ba(ClO_3)_2\rightarrow BaCl_2+3O_2:  Decomposition

b) NaNO_2+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HNO_2: double displacement

c) CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3: Synthesis (Combination)

d) ZnSO_4+Mg\rightarrow MgSO_4+Zn: redox

Explanation:

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products.

Ba(ClO_3)_2\rightarrow BaCl_2+3O_2

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place.

NaNO_2+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HNO_2

Synthesis reaction is a chemical reaction in which two reactants are combining to form one product.

CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3

Redox reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which oxidation and reduction takes place in one single reaction. The oxidation number of one element increases and the oxidation number of other element decreases.

ZnSO_4+Mg\rightarrow MgSO_4+Zn

Which metal cations form a white precipitate with both H2SO4(aq) and Na2S2O4(aq)? 1. Ba2+ 2. Sr2+ 3. Fe2+ 4. Cu2+
8090 [49]

Answer:

1. Ba2+ 2. Sr2+

Explanation:

When a solution contains the Barium ,Ba²⁺ ion or Strontium, Sr²⁺ ion, they reacts with either H₂SO₄(aq) or Na₂SO₄(aq) to produce a white precipitate of BaSO₄(s) and SrSO₄(s) respectively

The chemical reactions are given below

Ba²⁺ +  H₂SO₄(aq) ⇒ BaSO₄(s) + 2H⁺ (aq)

Ba²⁺ +  Na₂SO₄(aq) ⇒ BaSO₄(s) + 2Na⁺ (aq)

Sr²⁺ +  H₂SO₄(aq) ⇒ SrSO₄(s) + 2H⁺ (aq)

Sr²⁺ +  Na₂SO₄(aq) ⇒ SrSO₄(s) + 2Na⁺ (aq)
