Answer: $C_2H_2$

Explanation:

Saturated hydrocarbons are defined as the hydrocarbons in which a single bond is present between carbon and carbon atoms. The general formula for these hydrocarbons is $C_nH_{2n+2}$ and are called as alkanes.

Unsaturated hydrocarbons are defined as the hydrocarbons which have double or triple covalent C-C bonds. They are known as alkenes and alkynes respectively. The general formula for these hydrocarbons is $C_nH_{2n}$ and $C_nH_{2n-2}$ respectively.

$C_4H_8$ and $C_2H_4$ are alkenes.

$C_4H_{10}$ is an alkane.

Thus $C_2H_2$ with general formula $C_nH_{2n-2}$ is an alkyne.

The answer is C2H2 because an alkyne compound consists of a series of unsaturated hydrocarbons with a triple bond.

Answer:

ΔHreaction = 263.15 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The reaction is as follow:

OH + CF₂Cl₂ → HOF + CFCl₂

You need to calculate the enthalpy of reaction and for this it is necessary to know the standard enthalpies for each of the compounds. These enthalpies are as follows and can be found in your textbook or on the Internet.

ΔHreaction = ∑ΔHproducts - ∑ΔHreactants

$delta(H)_{reaction} =((1*(-97.8)+(1*(-92))-((1*39)+(1*(-491.15))=263.15kJ/mol$

What temperature will the water reach when 10.1 g CaO is dropped into a coffee cup containing 157 g H2O at 18.0°C if the followi

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Final temperature attained by water = 34.6°C

Explanation:

The reaction of CaO and H₂O is an <em>exothermic reaction</em>. The equation of reaction is given below:

CaO + H₂O ----> Ca(OH)₂

The quantity of heat given off, ΔH°rxn = 64.8KJ/mol = 64800J/mol

Number of moles of CaO = mass/molar mass, where molar mass of Ca0 = 56g/mol, mass of CaO = 10.1g

Number of moles of CaO = 10.1g/56g/mol =0.179moles

Quantity of heat given off by 0.179 moles = 64800 *0.179 = 11599.2J/mol

Using the formula, <em>Quantity of heat, q = mass * specific heat capacity * temperature rise.</em>

mass of mixture = (10.1 + 157)g = 167.1g, Initial temperature = 18.0°C

Final temperature(T₂) - Initial temperature(T₁) = Temperature rise

11599.2J/mol = 167.1g * 4.18J/g·°C * ( T₂ - 18.0°C)

11599.2 = 698.478T₂ - 12572.604

11599.2 + 12572.604 = 698.478T₂

698.478T₂ = 24171.804

T₂ = 34.6°C

Therefore, final temperature attained by water = 34.6°C
