Answer:

The correct answer is 596.5 kJ.

Explanation:

The mass of ethanol or C2H5OH mentioned in the question is 20 gm.  

The molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol.  

The moles of the compound can be determined by using the formula,  

n = weight of the compound/molar mass

= 20/46 = 0.435 moles

It is mentioned in the question that standard heat of combustion of ethanol is 1372 kJ/mole, that is, one mole of ethanol is producing 1372 kilojoules of energy at the time of combustion.  

Therefore, the energy liberated by completely burning the 20 grams of ethanol is 0.435*1372 = 596.5 kJ.

Calcium reacts with hydrochloric acid,HCI, to make calcium chloride and hydrogen gas (H2).
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

1.)calcium+hydrochloric acid -->calcium chloride +hydrogen

2.)Ca + 2HCl -->CaCl2 + H2

3.)3.55g

Explanation:

1.) pretty self explanatory

2.)Ca + HCl -->CaCl2 + H2

then balance

Ca + 2HCl -->CaCl2 + H2 (+2 infront of Hcl)

3.) take calcium and calcium chloride

Ca  + CaCl2

then you need the relative atomic mass of both

Ca=40

CaCl2=71 (40+(35.5x2))

Ca=40  40/40=1 1x2=2g

Then repeat that exact equation for calcium chloride

CaCl2=71 71/40=1.775 1.775x3=3.55g

Design a synthesis of 2-ethoxy-2-methylpropane from 2-methylpropene.
Usimov [2.4K]

In the presence of Hg (OAc)2, the alkenes reacts with alcohol to give allkoxy-mercurated product followed by reduction with NaBH4 to give ether. This reaction is known as alkoxymercuration-demercuration reaction.

What type of bond is formed when both atoms have a strong attraction for an electron? A.hydrogen bond B.ionic bond C.covalent bo
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

C. Covalent Bond

Explanation:

A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.
