(a) Write the reaction for the overall oxidation of propane (C3H8) with oxygen to produce CO2 and water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Oxidation is the loss of electrons, that is, addition of electronegetive elements, example is addition of oxygen. Also, removal of electropositive elements, example is removal of hydrogen.

Explanation: a) In the presence of excess oxygen, propane burns in air, which gives the following chemical equation:

C3H8 + 5O2⇒ 3CO2 + 4H2O +Heat

b) When insufficient oxygen or too much oxygen is present for complete combustion, the following equation is given:

2C3H8 + 9O2 ⇒ 4CO2 + 2CO + 8H2O + Heat

c) At the anode( negative terminal): O∧2- ⇒ O + e

Oxygen accepts electron.

d) At cathode ( positive terminal): H∧+ + e∧- ⇒ H

Hydrogen donates electron

d) Nernst equation for reversal potential is given as follows:

E= RT/zF  In{ion outside cell}/{ion inside cell}= 2.303 RT/zF In{ion outside cell}/{ion inside cell}

For the reaction 2 H2S(g) D 2 H2 (g) + S2 (g), Kp = 1.5 × 10−5 at 800.0°C. If the initial partial pressures of H2 and S2 in a cl
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: The approximate equilibrium partial pressure of H_2S is 3.92  atm

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each term raised to its stochiometric coefficients.

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

      2H_2S(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2(g)+S_2(g)

K_p=\frac{[H_2]^2\times [S_2]}{[H_2S]^2}

1.5\times 10^{-5}=\frac{[H_2]^2\times [S_2]}{[H_2S]^2}

On reversing the reaction:

     2H_2(g)+S_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2S(g)

initial pressure  4.00atm    2.00 atm       0

eqm          (4.00-2x)atm      (2.00-x) atm      2x atm

K_p=\frac{[H_2S]^2}{[H_2]^2\times [S_2]}

K_p'=\frac{1}{K_p}=0.67\times 10^5

2H_2(g)+S_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2S(g)

0.67\times 10^5=\frac{2x]^2}{[4.00-2x]^2\times [2.00-x]}

x=1.96

[H_2S]=2x=2\times 1.96=3.92 atm

Thus approximate equilibrium partial pressure of H_2S is 3.92 atm

On the galapagos islands, Darwin studied many creatures, including finches. Explain what he observed and how it relates to natur
Tatiana [17]
Darwin observed the beaks of the birds and how the different beaks helped the birds to eat different types of seeds.

This relates to natural selection because certain finches with say a smaller shorter beak would be able to eat only smaller seeds and fruits as to where a finch with a longer larger beak could eat larger bigger seeds and fruits. 

Hope this helped! Have a great day!

describe how the current modern atomic theory and model differs from the model jj Thompson proposed ?
myrzilka [38]
J.J Thompson’s model shows a sphere with electrons that are moving around freely. However, Thompson’s model does not show protons or neutrons. The model that we have today gives a clearer structure showing protons, neutrons, and electrons inside an atom.
