A student in chemistry 150-02 weighed out 55.5 g of octane (C8H18) and allowed it to react with oxygen, O2. The products formed

were carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
Write a balanced equation for the reaction

How many grams of oxygen are required to react with 55.0g of octane (C8H18)?

How many grams of CO2 are produced from 55.0g of octane (C8H18)?

How many molecules of H2O are produced from 55.0g of octane (C8H18)?

How many gams of C8H18 are required to produce 30.0g of water (H2O).?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of octane = 55.5 g

Balanced chemical equation = ?

Mass of oxygen required to react  = ?

Mass of CO₂ for med = ?

Molecules of water produced = ?

Mass of octane required to produced 30.0 g of water = ?

Solution:

1)

Chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂     →  16CO₂ + 18H₂O

2)

Mass of oxygen required to react  = ?

Mass of octane = 55.0 g

Solution:

Number of moles of octane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of octane with oxygen.

                        C₈H₁₈          :           O₂

                           2              :            25

                         0.48          :          25/2×0.48 = 6 mol

Mass of oxygen required:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 6 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 192 g

3)

Given data:

Mass of carbon dioxide produced = ?

Mass of octane = 55g

Solution:

Number of moles of octane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of octane with CO₂.

                        C₈H₁₈          :           CO₂

                           2              :            16

                         0.48          :          16/2×0.48 = 3.84 mol

Mass of CO₂ produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.84 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 168.96 g

4)

Given data:

Molecules of water produced = ?

Mass of octane = 55g

Solution:

Number of moles of octane:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 55.0 g/114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of octane with H₂O.

                        C₈H₁₈          :           H₂O

                           2              :            18

                         0.48          :          18/2×0.48 = 4.32 mol

Number  of molecules of water:

1 mol = 6.022× 10²³ molecules

4.32 mol × 6.022× 10²³ molecules/ 1 mol

26 × 10²³ molecules

5)

Given data:

Mass of octane required = ?

Mass of water produced = 30 g

Solution:

Number of moles of water.

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 30 g/ 18 gmol

Number  of moles = 1.67 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water and octane from balance chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂     →  16CO₂ + 18H₂O

                 

H₂O        :         C₈H₁₈

 18          :          2

 1.67       :       2/18×1.67 = 0.185 mol

Mass of octane:

Mass = number of moles ×molar mass

Mass = 0.185 × 114.23 g/mol

Mass = 21.13 g

what is the number of each type of atom on the right side of the equation 2Na3PO4(aq)+2CoCl2(aq)→2Co3(PO4)2(s)+6NaCl(aq)
Andre45 [30]

6 atoms of Cobalt.

4 atoms to Phosphate (PO4).

6 atoms to sodium.

6 atoms to Chlorine.

The coefficient is one factor that tells you how many atoms go to each atom/element, however, the subscript also influences this.

If the compound has parenthesis, then the subscript within the parenthesis remains untouched and does not affect the atoms.

Basically, to calculate the atoms is multiply the coefficient (number in front of the atom) by the subscript attached to the atom. If it's a compound such as Co3PO4, then make sure the coefficient affects the second atom as well.

Hope this helps!

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of potassium chloride. The concentration
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

3.65 g / ml correct to 3 sig. fig.

Explanation:

The computation of the concentration required is shown below:

As we know that

[A] = mass of solute ÷ volume of solution

Before that first find the mass of solute

Given that

Initial weight = 5.55g

And,

Final weight = 92.7 g

So,

Mass of KCl is

= 92.7 - 5.55

= 87.15 g ~ 87.2 g

Now the KCi is fully dissolved, so the volume is 23.9 ml

So,  concentration is

= 87.2 g ÷ 23.9 ml

= 3.65 g / ml correct to 3 sig. fig.
