Various members of a class of compounds, alkenes, react with hydrogen to produce a corresponding alkane. Termed hydrogenation, t

his type of reaction is used to produce products such as margarine. A typical hydrogenation reaction is C10H20() + H2(g) → C10H22(5) Decene Decane How much decane can be produced in a reaction of excess decene with 2.45 g hydrogen? Give your answer in scientific notation. O *10 g decane

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of decane produced is 1.743\times 10^2g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:  

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

Mass of hydrogen gas = 2.45 g

Molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1:, we get:

\text{Moles of }H_2=\frac{2.45g}{2g/mol}=1.225mol

The chemical equation for the hydrogenation of decene follows:

C_{10}H_{20}(l)+H_2(g)\rightarrow C_{10}H_{22}(s)

As, decene is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrogen gas is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of hydrogen gas produces 1 mole of decane.

So, 1.225 moles of hydrogen gas will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 1.225=1.225mol of decane

Now, calculating the mass of decane by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of decane = 1.225 mol

Molar mass of decane = 142.30 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

1.225mol=\frac{\text{Mass of decane}}{142.30g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}=(1.225mol\times 142.30g/mol)=174.3g=1.743\times 10^2g

Hence, the mass of decane produced is 1.743\times 10^2g

fenix001 [56]

An apple should be cut into 4 equal pieces, then put each slice in a separate container and label accordingly with letters A, B, C, and Control. Put water, ginger ale, and lemon juice into containers A, B, and C respectively but leave the Control untouched. Observe which of the slices in containers A, B, C will stay the same color after the one in control turns brown, if the slice maintains its color then the liquid added prevents an apple slice from browning. The variables are the liquids added and the control is the slice that did not have anything added to it.

Assuming the relative rate of secondary hydrogen atom abstraction for the chlorination of propane is 3.9 times faster than the r
Ghella [55]

Answer:

% of n-propyl chloride = 43.48 %

Explanation:

There are 2 secondary hydrogens and 6 primary hydrogens

The rate of abstraction of seondary hydrogen = 3.9 X rate of abstraction of primary hydrogen

probability of formation of isopropyl chloride = 3.9 X 1 (relative rate X relative number of secondary hydrogens)

Probability of formation of n-propyl chloride = 1 X 3 (relative rate X relative number of primary hydrogens)

Total probability = 3.9

% of n-propyl chloride = 3 X 100 / 6.9 = 43.48 %
