Explanation:

It is given that 44.45 g of hydrocarbon gas produces 2649 kJ or 2649 \times 10^{3} J of heat.

Also here, 1 lb = 453.592 g.

Therefore, amount of energy released by 453.592 g of hydrocarbon gas will be calculated as follows.

              \frac{2649 \times 10^{3} J \times 453.592 g}{44.45 g}

             = 27.03 \times 10^{6} J

It is known that 1 J = 2.778 \times 10^{-7} Kwh.

Hence, 27.03 \times 10^{6} J = 27.03 \times 10^{6} J \times 2.778 \times 10^{-7} Kwh/J

                              = 7.508 Kwh

Thus, we can conclude that the combustion of exactly one pound of this hydrocarbon gas produce 7.508 Kwh energy.

The Chemistry Cafe was out of bread. The cook went next door to the bakery and bought a loaf of bread which has 33 slices. Then,
maria [59]

In the question, we are told that there are;

  • A loaf containing 33 slices
  • A loaf containing 33 slices A package of cheese containing 15 slices

We also know that he is making a sandwich that has 2 pieces of both cheese and bread.

Hence;

Total number of bread and cheese = 33 + 15.

Each loaf should have two pieces of each bread and the cheeses make a total of four pieces.

Therefore he can make = 33 + 15/4 = 12 sandwiches.
