Hydrogenation reactions, in which H2 and an "unsaturated" organic compound combine, are used in the food, fuel, and polymer indu

stries. In the simplest case, ethene (C2H4) and H2 form ethane (C2H6). If 140 kJ is given off per mole of C2H4 reacting, How much heat (in MJ) is released when 12 kg of C2H6 forms?

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat released is 56 MJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

Given mass of C_2H_6 = 12 kg = 12000 g    (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of C_2H_6 = 30 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of }C_2H_6=\frac{12000g}{30g/mol}=400mol

The chemical reaction for hydrogenation of ethene follows the equation:

C_2H_4+H_2\rightarrow C_2H_6

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 1 mole of ethane releases 140 kJ of heat.

So, 400 moles of ethane will release = \frac{140}{1}\times 400=56000kJ of heat.

Converting this into Mega joules, using the conversion factor:

1 MJ = 1000 kJ

So, \Rightarrow 56000kJ\times (\frac{1MJ}{1000kJ})=56MJ

Hence, the amount of heat released is 56 MJ.

Why is it important to write a lab report once the experiment is finished?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Anyone should be able to read the lab report, repeat the experiment, and get the same results. This is important for scientists. ... They help the scientists know what has been done before and how it was performed. This can help them design experiments for their own research

Explain why calcium (Ca) has a greater atomic radius than magnesium (Mg).
g100num [7]

Answer:

Magnesium nucleus will attract the electrons more toward it and therefore, shrinking the size of the atom. Magnesium atom is smaller than Calcium atom because Calcium has more electron ( 20e− ) which will occupy more energy levels ( n=4 for Calcium versus n=3 for Magnesium)

Dilution question In many of the experiments, you will be asked to prepare a standard solution by diluting a stock solution. You
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

We could do two 1:50 dilutions and one 1:4 dilutions.

Explanation:

Hi there!

A solution that is 1000 ug/ ml  (or 1000 mg / l) is 1000 ppm.

Knowing that 1 ppm = 1000 ppb, 100 ppb is 0.1 ppm.

Then, we have to dilute the stock solution (1000 ppm / 0.1 ppm) 10000 times.

We could do two 1:50 dilutions and one 1:4 dilutions (50 · 50 · 4 = 10000). Since the first dilution is 1:50, you will use the smallest quantity of the stock solution (if we use the 10.00 ml flask):

First step (1:50 dilution):

Take 0.2 ml of the stock solution using the third dispenser (20 - 200 ul), and pour it in the 10.00 ml flask. Fill with water to the mark (concentration : 1000 ppm / 50 = 20 ppm).

Step 2 (1:50 dilution):

Take 0.2 ml of the solution made in step 1 and pour it in another 10.00 ml flask. Fill with water to the mark. Concentration 20 ppm/ 50 = 0.4 ppm)

Step 3 (1:4 dilution):

Take 2.5 ml of the solution made in step 3 (using the first dispenser 1 - 5 ml) and pour it in a 10.00 ml flask. Fill with water to the mark. Concentration 0.4 ppm / 4 = 0.1 ppm = 100 ppb.
