<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>Balanced equation:</h3>

2C4H10 + 8O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O

<h3>Description:</h3>

There should be 8 molecules of oxygen which react with 2 molecules of butane to produce 8 molecules of carbon dioxide and 10 molecules of water.

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O

Explanation:

2C4H10 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

There are 8 carbon atoms on the left side of the equation thus , there should be equal number of carbon atoms on the right side

So, if we balance carbon atoms only, the new eqation becomes

2C4H10 + O2 → 8CO2 + H2O

Now carbon atoms are balance but there are 20 , hydrogen atoms on the left side but 2 atoms only on the right side. So the new equation after balancing hydrogen atom becomes

2C4H10 + O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O

Now both carbon and hydrogen atoms are balanced but oxygen atoms are pending. There are 26 atoms of (O) on the right side , while 1 molecule of (O2)

So the balanced equation would be  

2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O

When an endothermic chemical reaction (the system) occurs inside a calorimeter containing water (the surroundings) and no heat e
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

b. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water decreases.

Explanation:

The laws of thermodynamics lets us know that energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Also, energy transfer does accompany chemical reactions in the form of heat.

For an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings. This leads to a drop in the temperature of the surroundings as energy is removed.

This implies that the water temperature decreases.

6. If 0.500 mol NaN3 react, what mass in grams of nitrogen will result?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

21 g of N₂ are produced by the decomposition

Explanation:

The reaction is: 2 NaN3 → 2 Na + 3 N2

2 moles of sodium nitride decompose in order to produce 2 moles of Na and 3 moles of nitrogen gas.

According to stoichiometry, ratio is 2:3. Therefore we say,

2 moles of nitride can produce 3 moles of N₂

Then, 0.5 moles of NaN₃ will produce (0.5 . 3) / 2 = 0.75 moles of N₂

We convert the moles to mass, to find the answer

0.75 mol . 28 g / 1 mol = 21 g
