Answer:

The mass methane (CH4) required is, 25 grams  (option C)

Explanation:

Mass of oxygen gas = 100 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mole

Molar mass of methane gas = 16 g/mole

<u>Step 1:</u> Balance the reaction

2O2 + CH4 → CO2 + 2H2O

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the moles of O2:

Moles O2 = mass of O2 / Molar mass of o2  

Moles O2 = 100g / (32g/mole) = 3,125 moles

⇒From the balanced reaction we conclude that  2 moles of O2 react with 1 mole of CH4

⇒ So, 3.125 moles of O2 react with 3.125/2 = 1.563 moles of CH4

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate the mass of CH4:

Mass of CH4 = moles of CH4 x Molar mass of CH4

Mass of CH4 = 1.563 moles / (16g/ moles) = 25.008 grams CH4

When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is formed: 2HCl + Mg → H2 + MgCl2. What is the volume of hydrogen pro
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:- C. 16.4 L

Solution:- The given balanced equation is:

2HCl+Mg\rightarrow H_2+MgCl_2

From this equation, there is 2:1 mol ratio between HCl and hydrogen gas. First of all we calculate the moles of hydrogen gas from given grams of HCl using stoichiometry and then the volume of hydrogen gas could be calculated using ideal gas law equation, PV = nRT.

Molar mass of HCl = 1.008 + 35.45 = 36.458 gram per mol

The calculations are shown below:

49.0gHCl(\frac{1molHCl}{36.458gHCl})(\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl})

= 0.672molH_2

Now we will use ideal gas equation to calculate the volume.

n = 0.672 mol

T = 25 + 273 = 298 K

P = 101.3 kPa = 1 atm

R = 0.0821\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}

PV = nRT

1(V) = (0.672)(0.0821)(298)

V = 16.4 L

From calculations, 16.4 L of hydrogen gas are formed and so the correct choice is C.

Deduce the charge of Z ,in the compound of ZBr2
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

2+

Explanation:

The charge on Z in the compound ZB₂ is a 2+  

  From the given compound:

   We know that Br is bromine with a charge of -1;

So;

   Using the combining power approach:

Atoms                              Z                                Br

Combining power           2                                1

Exchange of valency      1                                 2

So;

  The charge on Z is  2+

          2
