Using the following thermochemical equation, determine the amount of heat produced from the combustion of 24.3 g benzene (C6H6).

The molar mass of benzene is 78.11 g/mole. 2 C6H6(l) + 15 O2(g) → 12 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(g) ΔH°rxn = -6278 kJ

Answer:

ΔH = -976.5 kJ

Explanation:

For the reaction given, there are 2 moles of benzene (C6H6). The heat of this reaction is -6278 kJ, which means that the combustion of 2 moles of benzene will lose 6278 kJ of heat. It is an exothermic reaction.

The value of ΔH, the enthalpy, is a way of measurement of the heat, and it depends on the quantity of the matter (number of moles).

So, 24.3 g of benzene has :

n = mass/ molar mass

n = 24.3/78.11

n = 0.311 moles

2 moles ------------ -6278 kJ

0.311 moles ----------- x

By a simple direct three rule:

2x = -1953.08

x = -976.5 kJ

How many grams of hydrogen chloride can be produced from 1.00g of hydrogen and 55.0g of chlorine? what is the limiting reactant?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

m_{HCl}=36.1gHCl

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the required grams of HCl by firstly identifying the limiting reactant via the moles of each reactant as they are in a 1:1 mole ratio:

n_{H_2}=1.00gH_2*\frac{1molH_2}{2.02gH_2}=0.500molH_2\\\\ n_{Cl_2}=55.0gCl_2*\frac{1molCl_2}{70.9gCl_2}=0.776molCl_2

Thus, we infer the hydrogen is the limiting reactant and therefore we use its 1:2 mole ratio with HCl whose molar mass is 36.46 g/mol:

m_{HCl}=0.500molH_2*\frac{2molHCl}{1molH_2}*\frac{36.46gHCl}{1molHCl}\\\\m_{HCl}=36.1gHCl

Regards!

Aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and potassium phosphate are mixed. What is the precipitate and how many molecules are formed
kykrilka [37]

Aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and potassium phosphate are mixed. What is the precipitate and how many molecules are formed?

Barium nitrate has a chemical symbol of Ba(NO3)2 and potassium phosphate has a chemical symbol K2PO4. The reaction between these two is a double replacement reaction yielding barium phosphate and potassium nitrate.

The chemical equation representing the reaction is,

            Ba(NO3)2 + K2PO4 à KNO3 + BaPO4

Which separation techniques will you apply for the separation of the following? a) oil from water b) kerosene and petrol c) salt
REY [17]

Answer:

A) Separating funnel method

B) Simple Distillation

C) Evaporation

D) Sublimation

E) It is based on the principle of separation whereby even though two substances are dissolved in the same solvent, their respective solubilities could be different. Thus, the component that has more solubility will rise fastest and will therefore get separated from the mixture.

Explanation:

A)

B) Kerosene and petrol are both miscible liquids and the difference in their boiling point temperature is not more than 25°C. Thus, we make use of Simple distillation.

C) Can be separated by evaporation where the water is boiled and it evaporates and leaves the salt behind

D) To separate camphor from salt, we use sublimation so the camphor can change directly from solid to the gas state without passing through the liquid state.

E) Chromatography is used to separate components of a mixture.

It is based on the principle of separation whereby even though two substances are dissolved in the same solvent, their respective solubilities could be different. Thus, the component that has more solubility will rise fastest and will therefore get separated from the mixture.
