Suppose that coal of density 1.5 g/cm^3 is pure carbon. (It is, in fact, much more complicated, but this is a reasonable first a

pproximation.) The combustion of carbon is described by the equation:
C(s) + O2(g) -----> CO2(g) ∆H° = −394 kJ
What is the value of q (heat) when a lump of coal of size 5.6 cm x 5.1 cm x 4.6 cm is burned?

Answer:

q = -6464.9 kJ

Explanation:

We are given that the heat of combustion is  ∆H° = −394 kJ per mol of carbon.Therefore what we need to do is calculate how many moles of C are in the lump of coal by finding its mass since the density is given.

vol = 5.6 cm x 5.1 cm x 4.6 cm = 131.38 cm³

m = d x v = 1.5 g/cm³ x 131.38 cm³ = 197.06 g

mol C = m/MW = 197.06 g/ 12.01g/mol = 16.41 mol

q =  −394 kJ /mol C x 16.41 mol C = -6464.9 kJ

A sample of a compound that contains only the elements C, H, and N is completely burned in O₂ to produce 44.0 g of CO₂, 45.0 g o
koban [17]

Answer:

CH₅N

Explanation:

In the combustion, all of the C in the compound was used to produce CO₂ in a 1:1 ratio. Thus, the moles of CO₂ (MW 44.01 g/mol) produced equals the moles of C in the compound:

(44.0 g)(mol/44.01g) = 0.99977 mol CO₂ = 0.99977... mol C

Similarly, all of the H in the compound was used to produce H₂O in a ratio of 2H:1H₂O. The moles of H₂O (MW 18.02 g/mol) produced was:

(45.0 g)(mol/18.02g) = 2.497...mol H₂O

Moles of H is found using the molar ratio of 2H:1H₂O:

(2.497...mol H₂O)(2H/1H₂O) = 4.994...mol H

The ratio of H to C in the compound is:

(4.994...mol H)/(0.99977... mol C) = 5 H:C

Some NO₂ was produced from the N in the compound. Assuming a 1:1 ratio of C:N, the simplest empirical formula is: CH₅N.

What are quantum numbers?
kenny6666 [7]

Quantum numbers describe values of conserved quantities in the dynamics of a quantum system. In the case of electrons, the quantum numbers can be defined as "the sets of numerical values which give acceptable solutions to the Schrödinger wave equation for the hydrogen atom

The complete question is

If the compound below is oxidized, the resulting product is ___.

the compound given is Butanal

Select one:

a. methane and propane

b. butanal

c. butanoic acid

d. butane

Answer:

C. Butanoic Acid

Explanation:

When Butanal is oxidized using reagents like KMnO4, Tollens reagent etc.

When Aldehyde is oxidized corresponding Carboxylic Acid is produced

 Butanal →  Butanoic Acid
