Substances that have a define size and shape and vibrating particles that are close together are called Solid.

Explanation:

There are three states of matter - solid, liquid and gas.

Lets talk about solid state in detail.

In solid particles are closely packed and so they have very less or no space to move which results in vibrating particles. This results in solid substances having a fixed shape and volume.

The particles have very little space in between them, so it is not easy to compress solid.

There is no free space for particles to slide over each other, which does not allow solids to flow.

Also, particles in solid have a regular arrangement, they are not randomly packed.

Liquid hexane

maks197457 [2]

Answer: The mass of $H_2O$ produced is 2.52 g

Explanation:

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

For hexane:

Given mass of hexane = 1.72 g

Molar mass of hexane = 86.18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of hexane}=\frac{1.72g}{86.18g/mol}=0.020mol$

For oxygen gas:

Given mass of oxygen gas = 8.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas= 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of water}=\frac{8.0g}{32g/mol}=0.25mol$

The chemical equation for the combustion of hexane follows:

$2C_6H_{14}+19O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+14H_2O$

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane reacts with 19 moles of oxygen gas

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will react with = $\frac{19}{2}\times 0.020=0.19mol$ of oxygen gas

As the given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hexane is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane produces 14 moles of $H_2O$

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will produce = $\frac{14}{2}\times 0.020=0.14mol$ of $H_2O$

We know, molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.14mol\times 18g/mol)=2.52g$

Hence, the mass of $H_2O$ produced is 2.52 g
