Answer:

a) Heat of combustion of 1 g of methanol = -22.6 kJ = (-2.26 × 10) kJ

b) Heat of combustion of 1 g of ethanol = -29.7 kJ = (-2.97 × 10) kJ

c) Heat of combustion of 1 g of propanol = -33.5 kJ = (-3.35 × 10) kJ

Explanation:

a) The equation for the combustion of methanol is given as

CH₃OH + (3/2)O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

The standard heat of combustion of methanol is given as -726 kJ/mol from literature.

But, 1 g of methanol will have the heat of combustion of the number of moles of methanol contained in 1 g of methanol.

Number of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

Molar mass of (CH₃OH) = 32.04 g/mol

Number of moles = (1/32.04) = 0.03121 moles

1 mole of methanol has a heat of combustion of -726 kJ

0.03121 mole of methanol will have a heat of combustion of (0.03121 × -726) = -22.6 kJ

b) The equation for the combustion of ethanol is given as

C₂H₅OH + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ + 3H₂O

The standard heat of combustion of ethanol is given as -1367.6 kJ/mol from literature.

But, 1 g of ethanol will have the heat of combustion of the number of moles of ethanol contained in 1 g of ethanol.

Number of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

Molar mass of (C₂H₅OH) = 46.07 g/mol

Number of moles = (1/46.07) = 0.0217 moles

1 mole of ethanol has a heat of combustion of -1367.6 kJ

0.0217 mole of ethanol will have a heat of combustion of (0.03121 × -1367.6) = -29.7 kJ

c) The equation for the combustion of propanol is given as

C₃H₇OH + (9/2)O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

The standard heat of combustion of propanol is given as -2020 kJ/mol from literature.

But, 1 g of propanol will have the heat of combustion of the number of moles of propanol contained in 1 g of propanol.

Number of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

Molar mass of (C₃H₇OH) = 60.09 g/mol

Number of moles = (1/60.09) = 0.0166 moles

1 mole of propanol has a heat of combustion of -2020 kJ

0.0166 mole of propanol will have a heat of combustion of (0.0166 × -2020) = -33.5 kJ

Hope this Helps!!!

Collect 1 liter of water then add 0.39
saw5 [17]

Answer:

You fill up the 5 liter bottle. Then pour the contents from the 5 liter to the 3 liter till the 3 liter is full. Once the 3 liter bottle is full, what is left in the 5 liter bottle is 2 liters. Then you empty out the 3 liter until it matches the height of the 5 liter. Pour the remaining contents of the 3 liter bottle in the 5 liter bottle to get exactly 4 liters.

How much naoh is needed to prepare 461 ml of solution with a ph of 10.00?
Trava [24]

Answer: -

Volume of NaOH = 461 mL = 461/1000 = 0.461 L

pH = 10.0

Using the relation pH + pOH = 14.00

pOH = 14.00 - 10.00= 4.00

Using the relation

[OH⁻] = 10^{-pOH}

= 10^{-4.00} M

Since NaOH is a monobasic acid,

[NaOH] = [OH⁻] = 10^{-4.00} M

Amount of NaOH = [NaOH] x Volume of NaOH

= 10^{-4.00} M x 0.461 L

= 4.61 x 10⁻⁵ mol

Molar mass of NaOH = 23 x 1 + 16 x 1 + 1 x1

= 40 g / mol

Mass of NaOH required = 4.61 x 10⁻⁵ mol x 40 g/ mol

= 1.84 x 10⁻³ g

Please help, I'm so confused!!!!
masha68 [24]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf N_2}}

Explanation:

Let's examine this reaction, especially the coefficients.

N_2+3H_2 \rightarrow 2NH_3

First of all, remember that reactants are used to make the product. They are found on the left of the arrow usually. Therefore, N₂ and H₂ are the reactants, while NH₃ is the product. We can automatically eliminate NH₃ from our answer choices, because it is simply not a reactant.

Next, look at the coefficients.

  • N₂ has no coefficient, so a 1 is implied.
  • H₂ has a coefficient of 3.

Therefore, for the reaction to work, there must be 1 mole of N₂ and 3 moles of H₂.

We have 3.2 moles of N₂ and 5.4 moles of H₂.

Divide each amount given by the required amount for completion.

  • 3.2 mol N₂/ 1 mol N₂= 3.2 times
  • 5.4 mol H₂/ 3  mol H₂=1.8 times

Therefore, there is enough nitrogen to complete the reaction 3.2 times, but only enough hydrogen for 1.8 times. If everything is completely reacted, we will run out of hydrogen and have excess <u>nitrogen</u>.
