Explanation:

The word equation for the burning of a candle is wax plus oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water. This is an exothermic reaction that produces both light and heat.

The fuel for a burning candle is the wax. There are many different types of wax with a corresponding number of chemical formulas, but they are all hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are molecules made from hydrogen and carbon.

Burning the wax pulls the hydrogen and carbon in the wax apart and recombines them with oxygen from the atmosphere. This is an oxidation reaction. The resulting carbon dioxide and water are gases that disperse in the air.

At what pH range bayer process operate? and why?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Bayer process is industrial method of the refining of the bauxite to produce alumina which is aluminum oxide.

As alumina is amphoteric in nature, it exhibits a higher solubility at both the extremes of pH range, it is possible to dissolve alumina in low as well as in high pH solutions.

Dissolution of the alumina at high pH is well recognized in Bayer process. Bauxite is digested in very <u>high pH solution (> 13)  of alkali</u> like sodium hydroxide at temperature of about 150–250°C and pressure at 20 atm. <u>This is done so that the dissolved alumina is separated from rest of insoluble bauxite minerals. </u>

How many grams of oxygen are produced when 7.65 moles of water is decomposed
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 122.4 g of O₂

Explanation:

Data

mass of O₂ = ?

moles of H₂O = 7.65

Process

1.- Write the balanced chemical reaction

                   2H₂O  ⇒  2H₂  +  O₂

2.- Convert the moles of H₂O to grams

molar mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18 g

                    18 g of H₂O ---------------- 1 mol

                      x                ----------------- 7.65 moles

                      x = (7.65 x 18) / 1

                      x = 137.7 g H₂O

3.- Calculate the grams of O₂

                 36 g of H₂O -------------------- 32 g of O₂

              137.7 g of H₂O -------------------  x

                        x = (32 x 137.7) / 36

                       x = 122.4 g of O₂
