A scientific theory is a principle that can be falsified. The theory has to make strong statements about evidence. If the statements aren't strong, then the theory fits any evidence, and is unfalsifiable.

Combustion of hydrocarbons such as nonane () produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosp
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Part 1: C₉H₂₀ (l) + 14O₂ (g) ----> 9CO₂ (g) + 10H₂0 (g)

Part 2: Volume of CO₂ produced = 1223.21 L

<em>Note: the complete second part of the question is given below:</em>

<em>2. Suppose 0.470 kg of nonane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 17.0 °C. Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.</em>

Explanation:

Part 1: Balanced chemical equation

C₉H₂₀ (l) + 14O₂ (g) ----> 9CO₂ (g) + 10H₂0 (g)

Part 2: volume of carbon dioxide produced

From the equation of the reaction;

At s.t.p., I mole of  C₉H₂₀ reacts with 14 moles of O₂ to produce 9 moles of CO₂

molar mass of  C₉H₂₀  = 128g/mol: molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol, molar volume of gas at s.t.p. = 22.4 L

Therefore, 128 g of C₉H₂₀ produces 14 * 22.4 L of CO₂ i.e. 313.6 L of CO₂.

O.470 Kg  of nonane = 470 g of nonane

470 g of C₉H₂₀ will produce 470 * (313.6/128) L of CO₂ = 1151.50 L of CO₂

Volume of CO₂ gas produced at 1 atm and 17 °C;

Using P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

V₂ = P₁V₁T₂/P₂T₁

where P₁ = 1 atm, V₁ = 1151.50 L, T₁ = 273 K, P₂ = 1 atm, T₂ = 17 + 273 = 290 K

Substituting the values; V₂ = (1 * 1151.5 * 290)/(1 * 273)

Therefore volume of CO₂ produced, V₂ = 1223.21 L of CO₂

1. A rock with a mass of 66.5g<br>occupies 23.0 cm. Density?​
telo118 [61]

Answer:

2.89 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Since density equals mass over volume (or also seen as d=\frac{m}{v} ), simply divide 66.5 grams by 23.0 cm. This will output an answer of 2.89 g/cm^3.
