Answer:

The answer to your question is 21 g of CO₂

Explanation:

Balanced Reaction

C₃H₈ + 6O₂ ⇒ 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Data

mass of C₃H₈ = 7 g

mass of O₂ = 98 g

Determine the limiting reactant

Molecular mass of C₃H₈ = (12 x3) + (1 x 8) = 36 + 8 = 44 g

Molecular mass of Oxygen = 16 x 12 = 192 g

Theoretical proportion C₃H₈ / O₂ = 44 / 192 = 0.23

Experimental proportion C₃H₈ / O₂ = 7 / 98 = 0.07

As the proportion diminishes in the experiment, the excess reagent is the oxygen and the limiting reactant is propane.

- Calculate the mass of CO₂

44 g of C₃H₈ ---------------- 3(44) of CO₂

7 g of C₃H₈ --------------- x

x = (7 x 3(44)) / 44

x = 924 / 44

x = 21 g of CO₂

Question 2 of 50

The thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate will produce 14 g of calcium oxide. The stoichiometric ratio of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide is 1:1, therefore the number of moles of calcium carbonate decomposed is equal to the number of moles of calcium oxide formed.

Further Explanation:

To solve this problem, follow the steps below:

Write the balanced chemical equation for the given reaction.
Convert the mass of calcium carbonate into moles.
Determine the number of moles of calcium oxide formed by using the stoichiometric ratio for calcium oxide and calcium carbonate based on the coefficient of the chemical equation.
Convert the number of moles of calcium oxide into mass.

Solving the given problem using the steps above:

STEP 1: The balanced chemical equation for the given reaction is:

$CaCO_{3} \rightarrow \ CaO \ + \ CO_{2}$

STEP 2: Convert the mass of calcium carbonate into moles using the molar mass of calcium carbonate.

$mol \ CaCO_{3} \ = 25 \ g \ CaCO_{3} \ (\frac{1 \ mol \ CaCO_{3}}{100.0869 \ g \ CaCO_{3}})\\ \\\boxed {mol \ CaCO_{3} \ = 0.2498 \ mol}$

STEP 3: Use the stoichiometric ratio to determine the number of moles of CaO formed.

For every mole of calcium carbonate decomposed, one more of a calcium oxide is formed. Therefore,

$mol \ CaO \ = 0.2498 \ mol$

STEP 4: Convert the moles of CaO into mass of CaO using its molar mass.

$mass \ CaO \ = 0.2498 \ mol \ CaO \ (\frac{56.0774 \ g \ CaO}{1 \ mol \ CaO})\\ \\mass \ CaO \ = 14.008 \ g$

Since there are only 2 significant figures in the given, the final answer must have the same number of significant figures.

Therefore,

$\boxed {mass \ CaO \ = 14 \ g}$

An intravenous saline drip has 9.8 g of sodium chloride per liter of water. by definition, 1 ml = 1 cm3.

ELEN [110]

Missing question: Express the salt concentration in kg/m³.
Answer is: the salt concentration is 9.8 kg/m³.
m(NaCl) = 9.8 g ÷ 1000 g/kg.
m(NaCl) = 0.0098 kg.
V(solution) = 1 L = 1 dm³.
V(solution) = 1 dm³ ÷ 1000 dm³/m³.
V(solution) = 0.001 m³.
d(solution) = m(NaCl) ÷ V(solution).
d(solution) = 0.0098 kg ÷ 0.001 m³.
d(solution) = 9.8 kg/m³.

ammonia (NH3(g) Hf=-45.9 kJ/mol) reacts. with oxygen to produce nitrogen and water (H2O(g) Hf = -241.8 kJ/mol according to the e

kherson [118]

Answer:

ΔH°_rxn = -195.9 kJ·mol⁻¹

Explanation:

4NH₃(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2N₂(g) +6H₂O(g)

ΔH°_f/(kJ·mol⁻¹): -45.9 0 0 -241.8

The formula relating ΔH°_rxn and enthalpies of formation (ΔH°_f) is

ΔH°_rxn = ΣΔH°_f(products) – ΣΔH°_f(reactants)

ΣΔH°_f(products) = -6(241.8) = -1450.8 kJ

ΣΔH°_f(reactants) = -4(45.9) = -183.6 kJ

ΔH°_rxn = (-1450.8 + 183.6) kJ = -1267.2 kJ

Use a chemical equation to show how aqueous hno3 fits the definition of an acid

Lunna [17]

An acid has several definitions one would be that it is a proton donor and an electron donor. Also, it said to produce an H+ ion when in solution. For nitric acid in solution, it dissociates into ions which are NO- ions and H+ ions. So, it must be an acid. It has a dissociation reaction:

HNO3 = H+ + NO3-
