With all the coefficient set to 1, how can you tell that the equation is not balanced?

Chemistry
1 answer:
murzikaleks [220]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Well for any equation if all the coefficients are set to 1, this might result in unequal numbers of atoms of the same element on both sides

Explanation:

For example:

A+B---->B_{2} + A_{2} (for this equation all the coefficient (the number before element) are 1 but you can clearly see it is not balanced because one side has 1 A atom and other side has 2 B atoms....therefore we need to balance em.

2A+2B-----> A_{2} + B_{2} Here both atoms are balanced.

Write a balanced equation for the complete combustion of 2,3-dimethylbutane. use the molecular formula for the alkane (c before
Nuetrik [128]

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

<em>Step 1</em>. Write the <em>condensed structural  formula</em> for 2,3-dimethylbutane.

(CH_3)_2CHCH(CH_3)_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Write the <em>molecular formula</em>.

C_6H_14

<em>Step 3</em>. Write the <em>unbalanced chemical equation</em>.

C_6H_14 + O_2 → CO_2 + H_2O

<em>Step 4</em>. Pick the <em>most complicated-looking formula</em> (C_6H_14) and balance its atoms (C and H).

<em>1</em>C_6H_14 + O_2 → <em>6</em>CO_2 + <em>7</em>H_2O

<em>Step 5</em>. Balance the <em>remaining atoms</em> (O).

1C_6H_14 + (<em>19/2</em>)O_2 → 6CO_2 + 7H_2O

Oops! <em>Fractional coefficients</em>!

<em>Step 6</em>. <em>Multiply all coefficients by a number</em> (2) to give integer coeficients..

2C_6H_14 + 19O_2 → 12CO_2 + 14H_2O

500 mL of a solution contains 1000 mg of CaCl2. Molecular weight of CaCl2 is 110 g/mol. Specific gravity of the solution is 0. C
dangina [55]

Answer:

a) 0,2% w/v

b) r=500

c) 0,0182 M

d) 0,0145 m

e) 0,0137 equivalents

Explanation:

a) % w/v means mass of solute in grams per 100 mililiter of solution. Thus:

%w/v= \frac{1,000 g CaCl2}{500mL}×100 = 0,2%w/v

b) Ratio strength is a way to express concentration.  For w/v is in 1g of solute <em>r</em> mililiters of solution have. Thus, r = 500 because we have in the first 1 g of CaCl₂ in 500 mL of solution.

c) Molarity is moles of solute per liter of solution, thus:

1,000 g of CaCl₂ × \frac{1mol}{110g} = 9,09×10⁻³ moles of CaCl₂

500 mL of solution  × \frac{1L}{1000mL} = 0,500 L of solution

M = \frac{9,09x10^{-3} moles }{0,500 L} = 0,0182 M

d) Molality is moles of solute per kg of solution.

Specific gravity is the ratio between density of the solution and density of a reference substance (Usually water). With a specific gravity of 0,8:

kg of solution = 0,500 L of solution × \frac{0,8 kg}{1L} =<em> </em><em>0,625 kg of solution</em>

m = \frac{9,09x10^{-3}moles }{0,625 kg} = 0,0145 m

e)  In a salt, equivalents are the number of moles ables to replace one mole of charge. In CaCl₂ is ¹/₂ because with  ¹/₂ moles of CaCl₂ it is possible to replace 1 mole of charges. Thus, in 1,5 L there are:

1,5 L ×\frac{0,0182 CaCl2 moles}{1L} × \frac{1equivalent}{2 moles} = 0,0137 equivalents

I hope it helps!

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

The rate constant is missing in question, but use C(final) = C(initial)e^-kt = 0.200M(e^-k·10). Fill in k and compute => remaining concentration of reactant

If the sample contained 2.0 moles of KClO3 at a temperature of 214.0 °C, determine the mass of the oxygen gas produced in grams
Westkost [7]

Answer : The mass of the oxygen gas produced in grams and the pressure exerted by the gas against the container walls is, 96 grams and 1.78 atm respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of KCl_3 = 2.0 moles

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of MgO

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2KClO_3\rightarrow 2KCl+3O_2

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of KClO_3 react to give 3 mole of O_2

So, 2.0 moles of KClO_3 react to give \frac{2.0}{2}\times 3=3.0 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of O_2

\text{ Mass of }O_2=\text{ Moles of }O_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }O_2

\text{ Mass of }O_2=(3.0moles)\times (32g/mole)=96g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen gas produced is, 96 grams.

Now we have to determine the pressure exerted by the gas against the container walls.

Using ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT\\\\PV=\frac{w}{M}RT\\\\P=\frac{w}{V}\times \frac{RT}{M}\\\\P=\rho\times \frac{RT}{M}

where,

P = pressure of oxygen gas = ?

V = volume of oxygen gas

T = temperature of oxygen gas = 214.0^oC=273+214.0=487K

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

w = mass of oxygen gas

\rho = density of oxygen gas = 1.429 g/L

M = molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mole

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

P=1.429g/L\times \frac{(0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (487K)}{32g/mol}

P=1.78atm

Thus, the pressure exerted by the gas against the container walls is, 1.78 atm.
