The balanced reaction equation for the reaction between CH₃OH and O₂ is 
                        2CH₃OH(l) + 3O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)
Initial moles        12                24
Reacted moles   12                18
Final moles          -                   6              12               24
 
The stoichiometric ratio between CH₃OH and O₂ is 2 : 3
Hence,
   reacted moles of O₂ = reacted moles of CH₃OH x (3/2)
                                      = 12 mol x 3 / 2  
                                      = 18 mol

All of CH₃OH moles react with O₂.

Hence, the limiting agent is CH₃OH. 

Excess reagent is O₂.
Amount of moles of excess reagent left = 24 - 18 mol = 6 mol

Determine how many liters of hydrogen adjusted to STP there are in a 50.0 liter steel cylinder if the pressure inside is 100.0 a
Dvinal [7]

Answer : The volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 4550 L.

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 100.0 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas at STP = 1 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 50.0 L

V_2 = final volume of gas at STP = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 27.0^oC=273+27.0=300K

T_2 = final temperature of gas at STP = 0^oC=273+0=273K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{100.0atm\times 50.0L}{300K}=\frac{1atm\times V_2}{273K}

V_2=4550L

Therefore, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 4550 L.

How is this SI unit of temperature related to the metric unit of Celsius?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Celsius is currently a derived unit for temperature in the SI system, kelvin being the base unit. ... The two main reference points of the Celsius scale were the freezing point of water (or melting point of ice) being defined as 0 °C and the boiling point of water being 100 °C.
