Answer:

Market economies are characterized by their free markets. Examples are the United States and the United Kingdom.

That's pretty clear. What it means is that they trust in the free market and its operation to answer the questions of what to produce, how much to produce, and for whom.

Command economies are characterized by their control of markets. Examples are China and North Korea.

They rely on the government, not the free market itself, to control what should be produced. This makes for a more strict system that can pay off in the long run, but can also run the risk of being heavy-handed.

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kj of heat what mass of co2 is produced?

kari74 [83]

The heat of reaction (i.e. combustion) of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) when reacted with oxygen ( $O_{2}$ )  is -2658 kJ/mol butane, and the chemical reaction is given by:

$C_{4} H_{10}$ + $\frac{13}{2} O_{2}$ ---> $4 CO_{2}$ + $5 H_{2}O$

The mass of butane required in the reaction is based on the heat produced by the reaction, which is given to be -1,500 kJ. The minus sign is added because the reaction releases heat (exothermic), which means that the products are in a "lower energy state" than the reactants.

Dividing this with the heat of reaction per mole of butane reacted would give the number of moles butane required. Then, multiplying the answer with the molar mass of butane which is 58 grams/mole, will give the mass of butane required.

Moles of butane = [(-1,500 kJ)/(-2658 kJ/mol butane)]
Moles of butane = 0.5643 moles butane

Mass of butane  = 0.5643 moles butane * 58 grams/mol butane
Mass of butane = 32.73 grams butane

The mass of carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ) can be determined by multiplying the moles of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) with the mole ratio of ( $CO_{2}$ ) produced to the ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) reacted, and then with the molar mass of ( $CO_{2}$ ), which is 44 grams/mole.

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 0.5643 moles butane * [4 moles $CO_{2}$ / 1 mole $C_{4} H_{10}$ ] * 44 grams/mole $CO_{2}$

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 99.32 grams $CO_{2}$

Thus, the mass of butane required is 32.73 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the reaction of this amount of butane is 99.32 grams.

Ba(OH)2 Ba+2 + 2 OH- (dissolved in solution). Which will NOT happen to the equilibrium of this solution as H+ ions are added? H+

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The reaction will move to the left.

Explanation:

For the reaction:

Ba(OH)₂ = Ba²⁺ + 2OH⁻,

Ba(OH)₂ is dissociated to Ba²⁺ and 2OH⁻.

If H⁺ ions are added to the equilibrium:

H⁺ will combine with OH⁻ to form water.

So, the concentration of OH⁻ will decrease and the equilibrium is disturbed.

According to Le Châtelier's principle: when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.

So, the reaction will move to the right to suppress the effect of decreasing OH⁻ concentration.

The base will dissociate to form more OH⁻ and thus, the quantity of Ba(OH)₂ will decrease.

So, the right choice is: the reaction will move to the left, is the choice that will not happen to the equilibrium.
