Answer:

3

Explanation:

The unbalanced combustion reaction of the oxidation of propane is shown below as:-

C_3H_8+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

On the left hand side,

There are 3 carbon atoms and 8 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms

On the right hand side,

There are 1 carbon atom and 2 hydrogen atoms and 3 oxygen atoms

Thus,

Right side, CO_2 must be multiplied by 3 and H_2O by 4 so to balance carbon and hydrogen.

Left side, O_2 is multiplied by 5 so to balance the whole reaction.

Thus, the balanced reaction is:-

C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O

<u>Coefficient in front of the carbon dioxide in the balanced equation - 3</u>

A tetraphenyl phosphonium chloride (TPPCl) powder (FW=342.39) is 94.0 percent pure. How many grams are needed to prepare 0.45 L
slega [8]

Answer:

5.41 g

Explanation:

Considering:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Or,

Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Given :

For tetraphenyl phosphonium chloride :

Molarity = 33.0 mM = 0.033 M (As, 1 mM = 0.001 M)

Volume = 0.45 L

Thus, moles of tetraphenyl phosphonium chloride :

Moles=0.033 \times {0.45}\ moles

Moles of TPPCl = 0.01485 moles

Molar mass of TPPCl = 342.39 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

0.01485\ g= \frac{Mass}{342.39\ g/mol}

Mass of TPPCl = 5.0845 g

Also,

TPPCl is 94.0 % pure.

It means that 94.0 g is present in 100 g of powder

5.0845 g is present in 5.41 g of the powder.

<u>Answer -  5.41 g</u>

Classify each of the observed changes according to whether or not they are likely to represent evidence that a chemical reaction
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a solution color becoming less intense  due to dilution- is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

bubbles (gas formation) - evidence of a chemical reaction

explosion or fire - evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in color- evidence of a chemical reaction

precipitation- evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in temperature - evidence of a chemical reaction

a solid liquifying - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

solution colors mixing - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

Explanation:

A chemical change is not easily reversible and yields new substances. It is often accompanied by a loss or gain of heat.

In the answer section, i have shown some evidences that lead us to conclude that a chemical reaction has taken place. The occurrence of a chemical change often goes with the formation of new substances as earlier stated and any of these signs may accompany the process.

For instance, when a metal is dropped in dilute acid solution, bubble of hydrogen gas indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.

How does the state of matter affect the behavior of molecules?
motikmotik

Answer:

The behavior of molecules in different phases of matter represents a balance between the kinetic energies of the molecules and the attractive forces between them. All molecules are attracted to each other. The molecules are in the solid-state. At higher temperatures, the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher.

The molar heat of fusion for water is 6.01 kJ/mol. How much energy must be added to a 75.0-g block of ice at 0°C to change it to
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Answer is: 25,06 kJ of energy must be added to a 75 g block of ice.
ΔHfusion(H₂O) = 6,01 kJ/mol.
T(H₂O) = 0°C.
m(H₂O) = 75 g.
n(H₂O) = m(H₂O) ÷ M(H₂O).
n(H₂O) = 75 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 4,17 mol.
Q = ΔHfusion(H₂O) · n(H₂O)
Q = 6,01 kJ/mol · 4,17 mol
Q = 25,06 kJ.
