Based on the balanced equation 2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O calculate the number of excess reagent units remaining when 52 C2H2 mol

ecules and 150 O2 molecules react?
Chemistry
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

20 molecules of oxygen gas remains after the reaction.

Explanation:

2C_2H_2 + 5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2 + 2H_2O

Molecules of ethyne = 52

Molecules of oxygen gas = 150

According to reaction, 2 molecules of ethyne reacts with 5 molecules of oxygen gas.

Then 52 molecules of ethyne will react with:

\frac{5}{2}\times 52=130 molecules of oxygen gas.

As we can see that we have 150 molecules of oxygen gas, but 52 molecules of ethyne will react with 130 molecules of oxygen gas. So, this means that ethyne is a limiting reagent and oxygen gas is an excessive reagent.

Remaining molecules of recessive reagent = 150 - 130 = 20

20 molecules of oxygen gas remains after the reaction.

A sample of the chiral molecule limonene is 62% enantiopure. what percentage of each enantiomer is present? what is the percent
ikadub [295]

The mixture contains 62 % one isomer and 38 % the enantiomer.

Let’s say that the mixture contains 62 % of the (<em>R</em>)-isomer.

Then % (<em>S</em>) = 100 % -62 % = 38 %

ee = %  (<em>R</em>) - % (<em>S</em>) = 62 % -38 % = 24 %

During beta-oxidation of fatty acids, ___________ is produced in peroxisomes but not in mitochondria. A) acetyl-CoA B) FADH 2 C)
stepan [7]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.

Relative formula mass of glucose? (C6H12O6)
Rom4ik [11]

To find the mass of glucose, you must multiply the atomic weight of each of the elements in the molecule by the subscripts in the formula:

C_{6}=6*(12.01g)=72.06g

H_{12}=12*(1.008g)=12.096g

O_{6}=6*(15.999g)=95.994g

Then you add all of them together:

72.06g+12.096g+95.994g=180.15g

Therefore, the molar weight of glucose is 180.15 grams.

Write a balanced equation for the complete oxidation reaction that occurs when ethane burns in air
damaskus [11]
<h3>Balanced equation : 2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (ℓ)</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>

Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that have single bonds in chains

General formula for alkanes :

\tt \large{\bold{C_nH_{2n+2}}

Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (specifically alkanes)

\large {\box {\bold{C_nH _ (_2_n _ + _ 2_) + \dfrac {3n + 1} {2} O_2 \Rightarrow nCO_2 + (n + 1) H_2O}}}

So that the burning of ethane with air (oxygen):

\tt C_2H_6+\dfrac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (ℓ)

or we can use mathematical equations to solve equilibrium chemical equations by giving the coefficients for each compound involved in the reaction

C₂H₆ (g) + aO₂ (g) ⟶ bCO₂ (g) + cH₂O (ℓ)

C : left 2, right b ⇒ b=2

H: left 6, right 2c⇒ 2c=6⇒ c= 3

O : left 2a, right 2b+c⇒ 2a=2b+c⇒2a=2.2+3⇒2a=7⇒a=7/2
