Answer:

mass H2O = 47.56 g

Explanation:

balanced reation:

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

∴ moles CH4 = 1.320 mol

⇒ moles H2O = (1.320 mol CH4)×(2 mol H2O/mol CH4)

⇒ moles H2O = 2.64 mol H2O

∴ molar mass (mm) H2O = 18.015 g/mol

⇒ mass H2O = (2.64 mol H2O)×(18.015 g/mol)

⇒ mass H2O = 47.56 g

Answer:

47.5 g of water can be formed

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

Methane combustion.

In this process 1 mol of methane react with 2 moles of oxygen to produce 2 moles of water and 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

As ratio is 1:2, I will produce the double of moles of water, with the moles of methane I have.

1.320 mol .2 = 2.64 moles

Now, we can convert the moles to mass (mol . molar mass)

2.64 mol . 18g/mol = 47.5 g

Cohesion, adhesion, and surface tension are characteristics of water that ________. increase when pH increases increase when tem

Answer:

are a result of hydrogen bonding.

Explanation:

The surface tension is the amount of energy required to stretch or increase the surface of a liquid by a unit area. Liquids that have strong intermolecular forces also have high surface tensions. Thus, because of hydrogen bonding, water has a considerably greater surface tension than most other liquids.

Another example of surface tension is capillary action. A thin film of water adheres to the wall of the glass tube. The surface tension of water causes this film to contract, and as it does, it pulls the water up the tube. Two types of forces bring about capillary action.

One is cohesion, which is the intermolecular attraction between like molecules (in this case, the water molecules). The second force, called adhesion, is an attraction between unlike molecules, such as those in water and in the sides of a glass tube. If adhesion is stronger than cohesion, the contents of the tube will be pulled upward. This process continues until the adhesive force is balanced by the weight of the water in the tube.

This characteristics of water are a consequence of a particularly strong type of intermolecular attraction, called the hydrogen bond, which is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction between the hydrogen atom in a polar bond, such as N-H, O-H, or F-H, and an electronegative O, N, or F atom.

If your end product is 200.0 g KMnO4 how much KOH did you start with?

aniked [119]

Answer:

$m_{KOH}= 142.0gKOH$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the following chemical reaction we found on goo gle as it was not given:

$2MnO_2+4KOH+O_2\rightarrow 2KMnO4+2KOH+H_2$

Whereas we can see a 2:4 mole ratio of potassium permanganate product to potassium hydroxide reactant with molar masses of 158.03 g/mol and 54.11 g/mol respectively. In such a way, by developing the following stoichiometric setup, we obtain the mass of KOH to start with:

$m_{KOH}=200.0gKMnO_4*\frac{1molKMnO_4}{158.03gKMnO_4}*\frac{4molKOH}{2molKMnO_4} *\frac{56.11gKOH}{1molKOH}\\\\m_{KOH}= 142.0gKOH$
