Answer:

8 to 1.

Explanation:

  • Oxygen combines with hydrogen atoms to form water according to the balanced equation:

<em>O₂ + 2H₂ → 2H₂O.</em>

It is clear that one mole of oxygen combines with two moles of hydrogen atoms to form 2 moles of water.

So, the molar ratio of oxygen to hydrogen is (1 to 2).

  • The mass of 1 mole of oxygen = (no. of moles)(molar mass) = (1 mol)(32.0 g/mol) = 32.0 g.
  • The mass of 2 moles of hydrogen = (no. of moles)(molar mass) = (2 mol)(2.0 g/mol) = 4.0 g.

<em>So, the mass ratio of oxygen to hydrogen (32.0 g/4.0 g) = (8: 1).</em>

If crystal growth does not start on its own after the solution in the flask returns to room temperature, identify the best ways
deff fn [24]

Answer: The best way to promote the process are:

--> Add a bit of solid as a seed crystal.

--> Scratch the bottom of the flask gently with a stirring rod.

Explanation:

A crystal growth is seen is SUPERSATURATED solutions which contains more solute than it can normally dissolve at that given temperature. It is usually very UNSTABLE and capable of releasing the excess solute if disturbed, either by shaking or seeding with a tiny crystals.

Crystallization can be used for the separation of two salts with different solubilities as well as for purification of a soluble salt that contains insoluble solid impurities. Recrystallization improves the validity of the process. Crystallization can be initiated by:

--> Scratching the bottom of the flask gently with a stirring rod: scratching initiates crystallization by providing energy from the high-frequency vibrations.

--> Adding a bit of solid as a seed crystal: Seed crystals create a nucleation site where crystals can begin growth.

Pentane is a small liquid hydrocarbon, between propane and gasoline in size at C5H12. The density of pentane is 0.626 g/mL and i
Goshia [24]

Answer : The fuel value and the fuel density of pentane is, 49.09 kJ/g and 3.073\times 10^4kJ/L respectively.

Explanation :

Fuel value : It is defined as the amount of energy released from the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. The fuel value always in positive and in kilojoule per gram (kJ/g).

As we are given that:

\Delta H^o_{comb}=-3535kJ/mol

Fuel value = \frac{\Delta H^o_{comb}}{\text{Molar mass of pentane}}

Molar mass of pentane = 72 g/mol

Fuel value = \frac{3535kJ/mol}{72g/mol}

Fuel value = 49.09 kJ/g

Now we have to calculate the fuel density of pentane.

Fuel density = Fuel value × Density

Fuel density = (49.09 kJ/g) × (0.626g/mL)

Fuel density = 30.73 kJ/mL = 3.073\times 10^4kJ/L

Thus, the fuel density of pentane is 3.073\times 10^4kJ/L
