What is the mass of carbon in 500. g of octane?

Chemistry
1 answer:
denis23 [38]3 years ago
5 0

The answer is: the mass of carbon is 420.6 grams.

m(C₈H₁₈) = 500 g; mass of octane.

M(C₈H₁₈) = 114.22 g/mol; molar mass of octane.

n(C₈H₁₈) = m(C₈H₁₈) ÷ M(C₈H₁₈).

n(C₈H₁₈) = 500 g ÷ 114.22 g/mol.

n(C₈H₁₈) = 4.38 mol; amount of octane.

In one molecule of octane, there are eight carbon atoms:

n(C) = 8 · n(C₈H₁₈).

n(C) = 8 · 4.38 mol.

n(C) = 35.02 mol; amount of carbon.

m(C) = 35.02 mol · 12.01 g/mol.

m(C) = 420.6 g; mass of carbone.

1. Which graph shows the melting of crystalline solids? Explain your reasoning.
madreJ [45]
(1) The melting of a crystalline solid is best depicted by the second graph. This is because, the second graph shows a horizontal line which means that for a while there was no change in temperature. This zone is the latent heat of fusion. 

(2) The first graph shows the graph of a solid that is just heated but does not experience phase change. However, the second graph shows a solid that changes phase (from crystal/solid to liquid).

What would be the expected radius of a nucleus having 82 protons and 125 neutrons?
Luba_88 [7]

The expected radius of a nucleus having 82 protons and 125 neutrons would be 5.2 fm.

<h3>What is a nucleus in the atom?</h3>

The nuclei are incredibly tiny and dense. They are 10 thousand times smaller than an atom and have more than 99.9% of their mass. Protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no electrical charge, make up the nucleus. Alternately, protons and neutrons make up an atom's nucleus. While neutrons have no charge but weigh the same as protons, protons have a positive charge that is equivalent to the orbiting electrons. Based on the 1909 Geiger-Marsden gold foil experiment, Ernest Rutherford identified the atomic nucleus in 1911, which is the compact, dense region made up of protons and neutrons at the heart of an atom.
