Answer: 18634 joules
Explanation:
The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released when a heated substance is cooled depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Since,
Q = ?
Mass of oil = 345g
C = 0.220 J/g°C
Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)
= 0°C - 220°C = -220°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 345g x 0.220 J/g°C x -220°C
Q = 18634 joules (note that negative sign will not reflect in answer, because it only indicates that heat was released rather than gained)
Thus, 18634 joules of heat is released
the balanced equation for the formation of water is as follows
2H₂ + O₂ ---> 2H₂O
molar ratio of oxygen to water is 1:2
mass of water produced is - 46 g
therefore the number of moles of water produced - 46 g / 18 g/mol = 2.56 mol
1 mol of oxygen reacts to give 2 mol of water assuming oxygen is the limiting reactant
for 2 mol of water to be produced 1 mol of oxygen has to react
therefore for 2.56 mol of water to be produced - 1/2 x 2.56 mol = 1.28 mol of oxygen should react
mass of oxygen reacted is - 1.28 mol x 32 g/mol = 41.0 g
mass of oxygen that should react is 41 g
