How many moles of ethane (C2H6) would be needed to react with 62.3 grams of oxygen gas?

Note that it says oxygen "gas"
So you need the atomic mass of oxygen gas

Look at your periodic table, you'll see 15.9994 under oxygen
Oxygen gas has a formula of O2 therefore,
(15.9994) times 2= Oxygen gas atomic mass=31.9988

Mol= Mass/Atomic Mass
=62.3 g/ 31.9988 g/mol = 1.95 mol

now look at the ratio of C2H6 and O2, notice there is an invisible number beside each of them, at that "invisible number" is =1

1 C2H6 + 1 O2 -> products

this means that for 1 mol of C2H6, 1 mol of O2 has to react with it

Thus as we have 1.95 moles of O2, we need 1.95 moles of C2H6

Why must the ph ammonia buffer solution be stored and dispensed in the fume exhaust hood?
Vadim26 [7]

On the other hand ammonia is a very dangerous chemical which has a pungent smell and effect the eyes of the user. Thus it kept always in the fume exhaust hood for storing and dispensing function.  

The  pH of ammonia buffer contains ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) and a salt of ammonia with a  strong acid like (HCl) which produces, ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) mixture. The evaporation rate of ammonia is so high at room temperature thus on opening of the buffer solution the ammonia get evaporated very fast and the concentration of ammonia decreases which affect the pH of the buffer solution.

Thus the reason to put ammonia buffer in fume hood is explained.

Which part of an investigation is only found in an experimental investigation?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is control group.

Explanation:

A group used in a study or in an experiment, which does not get treatment by the scientists and is used as a foundation to determine the functions of the other tested subjects is known as the control group. The control group is only found in an experimental investigation.  

The group in an experiment, which gets the variable being examined is known as an experimental group. The comparison of an experimental group is done with a control group in order to find the answers in an experiment.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

B. Thicker layer of blubber

Explanation:

For the leopard seals to survives this harsh environment, it must have a thicker layer of blubber

Blubber is a thick layer of fat. It is called the adipose tissues and found in most marine organisms.

  • This layer helps in insulating the body against heat loss.
  • By so doing, the animal is able to conserve internal heat.
  • They have low thermal conductivity and do not easily lose heat or gain heat as such.

The organic compound di‑n‑butyl phthalate, C 16 H 22 O 4 ( l ) , C16H22O4(l), is sometimes used as a low‑density ( 1.046 g ⋅ mL
damaskus [11]

Answer:

36.63 Torr

Explanation:

You need to use two expressions, one for pressure and the other with the relation of density and height of the column.

For the pressure:

P = h * d * g  (1)

h is height.

d density

g gravity

The second expression put a relation between the densities and height of the column so:

d1/d2 = h1/h2 (2)

let 1 be the phthalate, and 2 the mercury.

Let's calculate first the relation of density:

d1/d2 = 13.53 / 1.046 = 12.93

Now with the first expression, we can calculate the pressure so:

P = hdg

We have two compounds so,

h1d1g = h2d2g ---> gravity cancels out

From here, we can solve for h2:

h2 = h1*(d1/d2)

replacing:

h2 = 459 / 12.53

h2 = 36.63 mm

1 mmHg is 1 torr, therefore the pressure of the gas in Torr would be 36.63 Torr
