Question:

What is the total combined mass of carbon dioxide and water that is produced?

Answer:

<u><em>109 kg</em></u>

Explanation:

When 23 kg of gasoline burns by consuming 86 kg oxygen, they produce carbon dioxide and water. To find the total combined mass of carbon dioxide and water, we will use mass conversation law.

According to mass conversation law, the mass of the product is equal to the mass of reagent.

Mass of reagent = Mass of product

In this reaction,

Gasoline + O2 → CO2 + H2O

23 kg + 86 kg → ?

23 kg + 86 kg =  109 kg

Combined mass of carbon dioxide and water will be 109 kg.

propane is a hydrocarbon, a compound composed only of carbon and hydrogen. it is 81.82% carbon and 18.18% hydrogen. what is the
scoundrel [369]

Firstly need to determine the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon. Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of components of the compound. Molecular formula  is the actual composition of the components in the compound.

percentage of C - 82.66%

percentage of H - (100-82.66) = 17.34 %

in 100 g of compound ;

mass of C - 82.66 g

mass of H - 17.34 g

                                 C                               H

mass in 100 g        82.66 g                      17.34 g

molar mass           12 g/mol                      1 g/mol

number of moles    6.88 mol                     17.34 mol

(mass/molar mass)

divide the number of moles by least number of moles (6.88 mol)

                               6.88 mol/6.88             17.34/6.88

                                1                                 2.52

multiply these by 2 to get a whole number 

C - 1x 2 = 2

H - 2.52 x 2 = 5.04

round off to nearest whole number 

C - 2

H - 5

ratio of C to H is 2:5

empirical formula - C₂H₅

empirical formula mass = 12 g/mol x 2 + 5 * 1 g/mol = 29 g

next have to find how many empirical units are there in the molecular unit 

molecular unit mass = 58.12 g

empirical unit = 29 g

then number of empirical units = 58.12 / 29 = 2

rounded off , number of empirical units = 2

(C₂H₅) * 2 units

molecular formula = C₄H₁₀

A solution has a [Ag+(aq)] of 0.01 M. The chloride concentration in solution is 1 x 10-5 M. Based on the following reaction, ans
earnstyle [38]
 The value  of current  solubility  product  is calculated as  below

K =  (Ag+)( Cl-)

 Ag+  =  0.01 M
Cl-= 1 x10^-5M

K is therefore = 1 x10^-5 x 0.01 = 1 x10  ^ -7 M

The K obtained is greater  than  Ksp

that is    K>  KSp
 1x10^-7 >  1.7 x10 ^-10


will  precipitation  of AgCl form?

yes  the precipitation  of AgCl  will  be formed   since   K> KSP

Suppose that magnesium would react exactly the same as copper in this experiment. how many grams of magnesium would have been us
Vikentia [17]

The solution for this problem would be:

We are looking for the grams of magnesium that would have been used in the reaction if one gram of silver were created. The computation would be:

1 g Ag (1 mol Mg) (24.31 g/mol) / (2mol Ag)(107.87g/mol) = 0.1127 grams of Magnesium
