saul85 [17]

Answer:

D: Carbon

Explanation:

Carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons in the periodic table. Hence the atomic number Z = 6. The ground state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s2 2p2. An excited state electron configuration of carbon is 1s2 2s1 2p3.

Consider the following unbalanced chemical equation. C5H12(l) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(l) If 21.9 grams of pentane (C5H12) are bur

Marina CMI [18]

Answer : The mass of water produced will be 32.78 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $C_5H_{12}$ = 21.9 g

Molar mass of $C_5H_{12}$ = 72.15 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $C_5H_{12}$ .

$\text{Moles of }C_5H_{12}=\frac{\text{Mass of }C_5H_{12}}{\text{Molar mass of }C_5H_{12}}=\frac{21.9g}{72.15g/mole}=0.3035moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $H_2O$ .

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$C_5H_{12}(l)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 5CO_2(g)+6H_2O(l)$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $C_5H_{12}$ react to give 6 moles of $H_2O$

So, 0.3035 moles of $C_5H_{12}$ react to give $0.3035\times 6=1.821$ moles of $H_2O$

Now we have to calculate the mass of $H_2O$ .

$\text{Mass of }H_2O=\text{Moles of }H_2O\times \text{Molar mass of }H_2O$

$\text{Mass of }H_2O=(1.821mole)\times (18g/mole)=32.78g$

Therefore, the mass of water produced will be 32.78 grams.

Compared to carbon dioxide, oxygen has a relatively _____ solubility coefficient and so requires a _____ partial pressure gradie

Andrej [43]

Oxygen has a relatively low solubility coefficient and therefore requires a steep (high) partial pressure gradient to help diffuse the gas into the blood.

Solubility is described as the limiting amount of an element that can dissolve in any amount of solvent at a set temperature. Since oxygen has a low coefficient of this, it requires the help of a higher partial pressure gradient to diffuse properly into the bloodstream.
