Answer : The number of electrons present in the 5th shell are, 50.

Explanation :

As we know that the electrons are filled in the electrons shell of an atom from lower energy shells to the higher energy shells. Each shell contains fixed number of electrons that means 1st shell contains 2 electrons, 2nd shell contains 8 (2+6) electrons, 3rd shell contains 18 (2+6+10) electrons and so on.

The general formula of for the 'nth' shell will be : 2n^2. Where 'n' is the number of shell.

As we are given that the number of shell is, 5th

So, the number of electrons present in 5th shell are = 2n^2=2\times (5)^2=2\times 25=50

Hence, the number of electrons present in the 5th shell are, 50.

Each shell contains a fixed number of electrons. The general formula of the number of electrons can be hold in n-th shell is 2n². 5th shell can hold 2x5² = 50  number of electrons.

1st shell contains 2 X 1²= 2 number of electrons, 2nd shell contains 2 X 2²=8 number of electrons, 3rd shell contains 2 X 3²=18 number of electrons, 4th shell contains 2 X 4²=32 number of electrons,  5th shell contains 2 X 5²=50 number of electrons and so on.

Which reactant will be used up first if 78.1g of o2 is reacted with 62.4g of c4h10?
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Reagent O₂ will be consumed first.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction between O₂ and C₄H₁₀ is:

2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ → 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following amounts of reactants and products participate in the reaction:

  • C₄H₁₀: 2 moles
  • O₂: 13 moles
  • CO₂: 8 moles
  • H₂O: 10 moles

Being:

  • C: 12 g/mole
  • H: 1 g/mole
  • O: 16 g/mole

The molar mass of the compounds that participate in the reaction is:

  • C₄H₁₀: 4*12 g/mole + 10*1 g/mole= 58 g/mole
  • O₂: 2*16 g/mole= 32 g/mole
  • CO₂: 12 g/mole + 2*16 g/mole= 44 g/mole
  • H₂O: 2*1 g/mole + 16 g/mole= 18 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of reactants and products participate in the reaction:

  • C₄H₁₀: 2 moles* 58 g/mole= 116 g
  • O₂: 13 moles* 32 g/mole= 416 g
  • CO₂: 8 moles* 44 g/mole= 352 g
  • H₂O: 10 moles* 18 g/mole= 180 g

If 78.1 g of O₂ react, it is possible to apply the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry 416 g of O₂ react with 116 g of C₄H₁₀, 62.4 g of C₄H₁₀ with how much mass of O₂ do they react?

mass of O_{2} =\frac{416grams of O_{2}*62.4 grams ofC_{4}H_{10}   }{116 grams of C_{4}H_{10}}

mass of O₂= 223.78 grams

But 21.78 grams of O₂ are not available, 78.1 grams are available. Since you have less mass than you need to react with 62.4 g of C₄H₁₀, <u><em>reagent O₂ will be consumed first.</em></u>

Calculate the mass of water produced when 6.97 g of butane reacts with excess oxygen
andrew-mc [135]
The balanced reaction equation for the combustion of butane is as follows;
C₄H₁₀ + 13/2O₂ ---> 4CO₂ + 5H₂O 
the limiting reactant in this reaction is C₄H₁₀  This means that all the butane moles are consumed and amount of product formed depends on the amount of C₄H₁₀ used up.
stoichiometry of C₄H₁₀ to H₂O is 1:5
mass of butane used - 6.97 g
number of moles - 6.97 g / 58 g/mol = 0.12 mol
then the number of water moles produced - 0.12 mol x 5 = 0.6 mol
Therefore mass of water produced - 0.6 mol x 18 g/mol = 10.8 g
