What do the coefficients located before certain molecules in each chemical equation represent?

Chemistry

6 0
It represents the number of moles required of that molecule to balance the chemical equation, which means to have the reaction chemically happen and goes to completion.

For example:
CH4 + O2 --> H2O + CO2     that is not balanced

with the coefficients located
CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2    now with the coefficients the number of oxygen and hydrogen on each side are equal

: calculate the mass of the solute in 1.500 l of 0.30 m glucose, c6h12o6, used for intravenous injection
vfiekz [6]
Answer is: <span>the mass of the glucose is 81,07 grams.
</span>c(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0,3 M = 0,3 mol/L.
V(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 1,500 L.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = c(C₆H₁₂O₆) · V(C₆H₁₂O₆).
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0,3 mol/L · 1,5 L.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0,45 mol.
m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = n(C₆H₁₂O₆) · M(C₆H₁₂O₆).
m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0,45 mol · 180,156 g/mol.
m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 81,07 g.

Δ H reaction = q / n where q: amount of heat released and n is number of moles of substance.
q = m . C . ΔT where:
m = mass of substance (g)
C = Specific heat capacity (4.18)
ΔT = change in temperature = 24.25 - 23.16 = 1.09
q = 1000 x 4.18 x 1.09 = 4556 J = 4.556 kJ
number of moles (n) = Molarity (M) x Volume (L)
                                 = 0.185 M x 0.07 L = 0.01295 mole
Δ H = q / n = - (4.556 kJ / 0.01295 mole) = -351.8 kJ / mol
Note: it is exothermic reaction (-ve sign)  i.e. temperature is raised
