What volume of carbon dioxide, at 1 atm pressure and 112°C, will be produced when 80.0 grams of methane is burned?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

158 L.

Explanation:

What is given?

Pressure (P) = 1 atm.

Temperature (T) = 112 °C + 273 = 385 K.

Mass of methane CH4 (g) = 80.0 g.

Molar mass of methane CH4 = 16 g/mol.

R constant = 0.0821 L*atm/mol*K.

What do we need? Volume (V).

Step-by-step solution:

To solve this problem, we have to use ideal gas law: the ideal gas law is a single equation which relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of an ideal gas. The formula is:

PV=nRT.

Where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the constant and T is temperature.

So, let's find the number of moles that are in 80.0 g of methane using its molar mass. This conversion is:

80.0g\text{ CH}_4\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol CH}_4}{16\text{ g CH}_4}=5\text{ moles CH}_4.

So, in this case, n=5.

Now, let's solve for 'V' and replace the given values in the ideal gas law equation:

V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{5\text{ moles }\cdot0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol\cdot K}\cdot385K}{1\text{ atm}}=158.04\text{ L}\approx158\text{ L.}

The volume would be 158 L.

The mass percent of solute in a solution containing 3.73 g KBr dissolved in 131 g of H2O is:
Elina [12.6K]

\huge \underbrace \mathfrak \red{Answer}

28%

Explanation:

mass of solute(KBr) = 3.73g

mass of solvent(H2O) = 131g

mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

= 3.73 + 131

= 134.73g

\sf \large {mass \: percentage =  \frac{mass \: of \: solute}{mass \: of \: solvent}  \times 100} \\  \\  \sf  mass \: percentage =  \frac{3.73}{134.73}  \times 100 \\  \\  \sf mass \: percentage =  0.028 \times 100 \\  \\  \sf mass \: percentage = 28\%

Consider a 0.10 M aqueous benzoic acid, CeHeCOOH. The K benzoic acid. 6.5 x 10 for A) Write a balanced equation that shows the r
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

a) C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

b) [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = 2.599

Explanation:

a) balanced equation:

C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

⇒ Ka = ( [ H3O+ ] * [ C6H5COO- ] ) / [ C6H5COOH ] = 6.5 E-5

mass balance:

0.10 m = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ C6H5COOH ].....(1)

charge balance:

[ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ OH- ] .......[ OH- ] : comes from water, it's not significant

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] .........(2)

b) (2) in (1):

⇒ 0.10 M = [ H3O+ ] + [ C6H5COOH ]

⇒ [ C6H5COOH ] = 0.10 - [ H3O+ ]

⇒ Ka = [ H3O+ ]² / ( 0.1 - [ H3O+ ] ) = 6.5 E-5

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + 6.5 E-5 [ H3O+ ] - 6.5 E-6 = 0

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = - log [ H3O+ ]

⇒ pH = - Log ( 2.517 E-3 )

⇒ pH = 2.599
