Why is it possible to use physical properties to separate a mixture?

Kerosene, a common space-heater fuel, is a mixture of hydrocarbons whose "average" formula is C₁₂H₂₆.

padilas [110]

The calculated enthalpy of formation of kerosene is 365.4 kJ and heat produced is 78650.3 kJ

For this, we need the normal enthalpy of formation given below

ΔH∘f(CO2)=−393.5kJ/molΔH∘f(H2O)\s=−241.8kJ/molΔH∘f(O2)=0kJ/mol

We shall now determine the enthalpy of kerosene formation:

H rxn = 24 mol H f (CO2) + 26 mol H f (H2O) + 2 mol H f (C12H26) + 37 mol H f (O2) + 1.50 104 kJ = 9444 kJ + 6286.8 kJ + 1500 kJ 2 mol H f (C12H26) = 730.8 kJ H f (C12H26) = 365.4 kJ

Kerosene has a density of 0.74 g/mL.

Kerosene volume (V) equals 0.63 gallons, or 0.63 x 3785.4, or 2384. 8 mL.

We shall now calculate the mass (m) of kerosene:

ρ=mVm\s=ρ×Vm\s=0.749g/mL×2384.mLm\s=1786.2g

We shall now discover the heat that 1786 generated.

Two grams of kerosene

Kerosene's molar mass is 170.33 g/mol.

The mass of two moles of kerosene is equal to 2*170.33*340.66g.

1.50104kJ of heat are generated by 340.66 g of kerosene.

1786 produced heat.

Kerosene 2 grams = 1.50 104 kJ 340.66 1786.2 g = 78650.3 kJ

Energy produced by nuclear fusion and fission

White raven [17]

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.

Without doing any calculations, match the following thermodynamic properties with their appropriate numerical sign for the follo

siniylev [52]

Answer:

∆H > 0

∆Srxn <0

∆G >0

∆Suniverse <0

Explanation:

We are informed that the reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed hence ∆H is positive at all temperatures.

Similarly, absorption of energy leads to a decrease in entropy of the reaction system. Hence the change in entropy of the reaction ∆Sreaction is negative at all temperatures.

The change in free energy for the reaction is positive at all temperatures since ∆S reaction is negative then from ∆G= ∆H - T∆S, we see that given the positive value of ∆H, ∆G must always return a positive value at all temperatures.

Since entropy of the surrounding= - ∆H/T, given that ∆H is positive, ∆S surrounding will be negative at all temperatures. This is so because an endothermic reaction causes the surrounding to cool down.

Un tanque de acetileno para una antorcha de soldadura de oxiacetileno proporciona 9340 L de gas acetileno, C2H2, a 0°C y 1 atm 2

Helen [10]

Answer:

3.33 tanques de O₂

Explanation:

Basados en la reacción:

2C₂H₂(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

2 moles de acetileno reaccionan con 5 moles de oxígeno produciendo 4 moles de dióxido de carbono y 2 moles de agua

La ley de Avogadro dice que el volumen de un gas bajo temperatura y presión constantes es proporcional a las moles de este gas. Así, como 2 moles de acetileno reaccionan con 5 moles de oxígeno, los litros de O₂ necesarios para quemar 9340L de acetileno son:

9340 L C₂H₂ × (5 moles O₂ / 2 moles C₂H₂) = 23350L de O₂

Si un tanque contiene 7x10³ L de O₂ serán necesarios:

23350L O₂ ₓ (1 tanque / 7x10³L) = 3.33 tanques de O₂
