Explanation:
A low-pressure area, or "low", is a region where the atmospheric pressure at sea level is below that of surrounding locations. Low-pressure systems form under areas of wind divergence that occur in upper levels of the troposphere.
Answer:
0.846 moles.
Explanation:
- This is a stichiometric problem.
- The balanced equation of complete combustion of butane is:
C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O
- It is clear from the stichiometry of the balanced equation that complete combustion of 1.0 mole of butane needs 6.5 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 5 moles of H₂O.
<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>
- 1.0 mole of C₄H₁₀ reacts with → 6.5 moles of O₂
- ??? moles of C₄H₁₀ are needed to react with → 5.5 moles of O₂
- The number of moles of C₄H₁₀ that are needed to react with 5.5 moles of O₂ = (1.0 x 5.5 moles of O₂) / (6.5 moles of O₂) = 0.846 moles.
One because Potassium is in the first column on the periodic table. Any element in the first column on the periodic table has one valence electron in their outer shell.
