Gaseous ethane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 9.32 g of ethane is

Pie

Answer:

There will remain 8.06 grams of ethane

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of ethane = 9.32 grams

Mass of oxygen = 12.0 grams

Molar mass ethane = 30.07 g/mol

Molar mass oxygen = 32.00 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2 C2H6 + 7 O2 → 4 CO2 + 6 H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles ethane

Moles ethane = mass ethane / molar mass ethane

Moles ethane = 9.32 grams / 30.07 g/mol

Moles ethane = 0.3099 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles oxygen

Moles oxygen = 12.0 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 0.375 moles

Step 5: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 2 moles ethane we need 7 moles O2 to produce 4 moles CO2 and 6 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed ( 0.375 moles)

Ethane is in excess. There will react 2/7 * 0.375 = 0.107 moles

There will remain 0.375 - 0.107 = 0.268 moles

Step 6: Calculate mass ethane

Mass ethane = moles ethane * molar mass ethane

Mass ethane = 0.268 moles * 30.07 g/mol

Mass ethane = 8.06 grams

There will remain 8.06 grams of ethane

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

Using Dimensional Analysis

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Balanced] CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

[Given] 36 g H₂O

[Solve] x g O₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 2 mol O₂ → 2 mol H₂O

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mas of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O₂ - 2(16.00) = 32.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

Set up conversion: $\displaystyle 36 \ g \ H_2O(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{18.02 \ g \ H_2O})(\frac{2 \ mol \ O_2}{2 \ mol \ H_2O})(\frac{32.00 \ g \ O_2}{1 \ mol \ O_2})$
Divide/Multiply [Cancel Units]: $\displaystyle 63.929 \ g \ O_2$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.</em>

63.929 g O₂ ≈ 64 g O₂

A student mixed some yellow sulfur powder with some iron filings. She was able to take the iron out of the sulfur by using a mag

Kay [80]

Answer: Chemical change

Explanation:

Physical change is a change in which there is no rearrangement of atoms and thus no new substance is formed. There is only change in physical state of the substance. The change can be reversed using physical methods.

Chemical change is a change in which there is rearrangement of atoms and thus new substance is formed. There may or may not be a change in physical state. The change can only be reversed using chemical methods.

Thus when iron and sulfur are heated in a test tube, the chemical change occurs and thus lead to formation of new substances which could not be separated using magnet.

An acidic fog in pasadena was found to have a ph of 2.50. which expression represents this ph measurement?

joja [24]

Supposing a temperature of 25 degrees and supposing that all activity coefficients are 1

pH = -log[H+]
pOH = -log[OH-]
pH + pOH = 14

Thus a pH of 2.50 would mean that the [H+], the concentration of the hydrogen ion, would be 10^(-2.50)

pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 2.5 = 11.5
MOH- levels would be coordinated with pOH
pOH = -log[OH-] ==> [OH-] = [MOH-] = 10^-pOH = 10^-11.5 = 3.2 x 10^-12

Therefore, MOH¯ = 3.2 × 10¯12 M

The bond between which two atoms has the greatest degree of polarity

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

By comparing the bonds between C-H and O-H, the O-H bond has the greatest degree of polarity.

Explanation:

Based on bond electronegative values which is a measure of the ability of a atom in a chemical bond to pull the shared electrons closer to its self.

The electronegativity of an element characterizes the elements chemical reaction.

From the available bonds

Oxygen has an electronegativity value of 3.44 and Carbon 2.55, while Hydrogen has an electronegativity value of 2.20

Therefore the bond between carbon and hydrogen is much less polar than between oxygen and hydrogen.

The bond between oxygen and hydrogen has the greatest polarity.
