Answer:

The chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules due to its tetravalent nature. It has four valence electrons in which it shares with other elements in order to form an octet configuration.

Carbon atoms are also capable of forming double and triple bonds with other atoms. These properties help determine the functional group present and gives us a knowledge of the chemical features such as polarity, melting and boiling present in the compound.

A compound which is mineral acid is generally classified as a????? urgent please

andrey2020 [161]

Answer: An inorganic acid.

Explanation: An inorganic acid (also called a mineral acid) is an acid derived from one or more inorganic compounds. All inorganic acids form hydrogen ions and the conjugate base ions when dissolved in water. Commonly used inorganic acids are sulfuric acid (H2SO4), hydrochloric acid (HCl), and nitric acid (HNO3). Hope this helps :)

If 10.0 mL of a .600 M of HNO3 reacts with 31.0 mL of .700M Ba(OH)2 solution, what is the molarity of Ba(OH)2 after the reaction

Tasya [4]

Answer:

0.456M

Explanation:

1. Balanced molecular equation

$2HNO_3+Ba(OH)_2\rightarrow Ba(NO_3)_2+2H_2O$

2. Mole ratio

$\dfrac{2molHNO_3}{1molBa(OH)_2}$

3. Moles of HNO₃

Number of moles = Molarity × Volume in liters
n = 0.600M × 0.0100 liter = 0.00600 mol HNO₃

4. Moles Ba(OH)₂

n = 0.700M × 0.0310 liter = 0.0217 mol

5. Limiting reactant

Actual ratio:

$\dfrac{0.0600molHNO_3}{0.0217molBa(OH)_2}\approx0.28$

Since the ratio of the moles of HNO₃ available to the moles of Ba(OH)₂ available is less than the theoretical mole ratio, HNO₃ is the limiting reactant.

Thus, 0.006 moles of HNO₃ will react completely with 0.003 moles of Ba(OH)₂ and 0.0217 - 0.003 = 0.0187 moles will be left over.

6. Final molarity of Ba(OH)₂

Molarity = number of moles / volume in liters
Molarity = 0.0187 mol / (0.0100 + 0.0031) liter = 0.456M

C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

16.5moles of CO2

Explanation:

Molar mass of O2 is 32g/Mol

No of mole = 880/32 = 27.5 moles

27.5 Mol of O2 gives X mole of CO2

5 mole of O2 gives 3 moles of CO2

No of mole of CO2 = (27.5×3)/ 5 = 16.5moles
