(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}

A student is instructed to make 1 L of a 2.0 M solution of CaCl2 using dry salt. How should he do this?
Pachacha [2.7K]
<span>The student should follow following steps to make 1 L of </span>2.0 M CaCl₂.<span>
<span>
1. First he should calculate the number of moles of 2.0 M CaCl</span></span>₂ in 1 L solution.<span>

</span>Molarity of the solution = 2.0 M<span>
Volume of solution which should be prepared = 1 L

Molarity = number of moles / volume of the solution

Hence, number of moles in 1 L = 2 mol

2. Find out the mass of dry CaCl</span>₂ in 2 moles.<span>

moles = mass / molar mass

Moles of CaCl₂ = 2 mol</span><span>
Molar mass of CaCl₂ = </span><span>110.98 g/mol

Hence, mass of CaCl</span>₂ = 2 mol x <span>110.98 g/mol
                                     = 221.96 g

3. Weigh the mass accurately 

4. Then take a cleaned and dry1 L volumetric flask and place a funnel top of it. Then carefully add the salt into the volumetric flask and finally wash the funnel and watch glass with de-ionized water. That water also should be added into the volumetric flask.

5. Then add some de-ionized water into the volumetric flask and swirl well until all salt are dissolved.

<span>6. Then top up to mark of the volumetric flask carefully. 
</span>
</span>
7. As the final step prepared solution should be labelled.

When heat is applied to 80 grams of CaCO3, it yields 39 grams of B. Determine the percentage of the yield.
EleoNora [17]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

When heat is applied to 80 grams of CaCO3, it yields 39 grams of CaO Determine the percentage of the yield.

CaCO3→CaO + CO2

<u>Answer:</u> The % yield of the product is 87.05 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

The equation used is:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

We are given:

Given mass of CaCO_3 = 80 g

Molar mass of CaCO_3 = 100 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of }CaCO_3=\frac{80g}{100g/mol}=0.8mol

For the given chemical reaction:

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 1 mole of CaCO_3 produces 1 mole of CaO

So, 0.8 moles of CaCO_3 will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.8=0.8mol of CaO

We know, molar mass of CaO = 56 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass of CaO}=(0.8mol\times 56g/mol)=44.8g

The percent yield of a reaction is calculated by using an equation:

\% \text{yield}=\frac{\text{Actual value}}{\text{Theoretical value}}\times 100 ......(2)

Given values:

Actual value of the product = 39 g

Theoretical value of the product = 44.8 g

Plugging values in equation 2:

\% \text{yield}=\frac{39 g}{44.8g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield}=87.05\%

Hence, the % yield of the product is 87.05 %

The molecule CCI4 contains one double bond and three single bonds. True or False
kifflom [539]

False

Explanation: Carbon is the central atom which has valency of 4 and can form 4 bonds to complete its octet. Each chlorine has valency of 1 and can form only one bond to complete its octet. Thus carbon can bond with four chlorine atoms through sharing of electrons to form four single bonds. Thus it cannot contain a double bond.
