Answer:

Octane

Explanation:

Hydrocarbons are composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms and are generally non-polar. The only intermolecular force of attraction between hydrocarbons is the weak van der waals interaction. Longer the hydrocarbon chain, stronger will be this interaction.

In the given options:

Propane = C3H8

Octane = C8H18

Hexane = C6H14

Ethane = C2H6

Thus, octane is has the longest chain and will have the strongest van der waal interaction which will allow the molecule to stay in a liquid state longer.

I just took a test with this question and got the answer wrong for saying ethane. The correct answer is propane.

What is the molar ratio for the following equation after it has been properly balanced?
hichkok12 [17]

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 6 Fe

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Method One: Refer to electron transfers.

Oxidation states:

  • Na: from 0 to +1; loses one electron.
  • Fe: from +3 to 0; gains three electrons.

Each mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two Fe atoms and will gain 2 × 3 = 6 electrons during the reaction. It takes 6 moles of Na to supply all those electrons.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe

  • There are two moles of Na atoms in each mole of Na₂O. 6 moles of Na will make 3 moles of Na₂O.
  • There are two moles of Fe atoms in each mole of Fe₂O₃. 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ will make 2 moles of Fe.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe

Method Two: Atoms conserve.

Fe₂O₃ has the largest number of atoms among one mole of all four species in this reaction. Assume <em>one</em> as its coefficient.

? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe

There are two moles of Fe atoms and three moles of O atoms in each mol of Fe₂O₃. One mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two moles of Fe and three moles of O. There are one mole of O atom in every mole of Na₂O. Three moles of O will go to three moles of Na₂O.

? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe

Each mole of Na₂O contains two moles of Na. Three moles of Na₂O will contain six moles of Na.

<em>6</em> Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe

Simplify the coefficients. All coefficients in this equation are now full number and relatively prime. Hence the equation is balanced.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe

Gaseous butane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 4.1 g of butane is m
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

12.44 g

Explanation:

2C4H10 + 13O2 = 8CO2 + 10H2O

n(C4H10) = m(C4H10)/M(C4H10) = 4.1 / 58g/mol = 0.0707 mol (excess).

n(O2) = m(O2)/M(O2) = 25.9 / 32g/mol = 0.809 mol (deficiency).

Since the ratio of O2 to octane is 13 : 2 we can divide 0.0707 by 2 to get 0.03535 and divide 0.809 by 13 to get 0.062.

mass of CO2 produced =

M = [0.0707 moles C4H10 x 8 moles CO2] / 2 moles C4H10 x 44 g CO2/mol

M = 0.5656/2 * 44

M = 0.2828 * 44

M = 12.44 of CO2

One of these notations represents the definition of one mole. That is
just olya [345]

Answer:

6.02*10^23

Explanation:

This is the number for one mole. Just like one dozen = 12, one mole = 6.02*10^23.

Fun fact, if you had a mole of pennies you could spend 1 million dollars every second of your life and not have even spent 1% of it by the time you die at 100 years old.
