Answer:

21.344%

Explanation:

For the given chemical reaction, 8 moles of the reactant should produce 4 moles of Na_{2}O. However, 195 g of Na_{2}O was produced instead. The molar mass of Na_{2}O is 61.9789 g/mol.

Thus, the moles of Na_{2}O produced = 195/61.9789 = 3.1462 moles

The percent error = [(Actual -Experiment)/Actual]*100%

The percent error =  [(4.00 - 3.1462)/4.00]*100% = (0.85376/4.00)*100% = 21.344%

How is chemical bonding useful to our lives?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Three types of chemical bonds are important in human physiology, because they hold together substances that are used by the body for critical aspects of homeostasis, signaling, and energy production, to name just a few important processes. These are ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and hydrogen bonds.

1 C8H10(l) +21/2O2(g) → 8CO2(g) + 5H2O(g), Hcomb= ? Hf for C8H10(l) = +49.0kJ/mol C8H10(l) Use the balanced combustion reaction
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

H_{comb}=-4406kJ/mol

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the enthalpy of combustion is understood as the energy released when one mole of fuel, in this case octene, is burned in the presence of oxygen and is computed with the enthalpies of formation of the fuel, carbon dioxide and water as shown below (oxygen is circumvented as it is a pure element):

H_{comb}=8*\Delta _fH_{CO_2}+5\Delta _fH_{H_2O}-\Delta _fH_{C_8H_{10}}

Thus, since we already know the enthalpy of combustion of the fuel, for carbon and water we have -393.5 and -241.8 kJ/mol respectively, thereby, the enthalpy of combustion turns out:

H_{comb}=8*(-393.5kJ/mol)+5(-241.8kJ/mol)-49.0kJ/mol\\\\H_{comb}=-4406kJ/mol

Best regards.
