Note that butane has two possible isomers but that decane has 75 possible isomers. Why does the number of possible isomers go up

with an increasing number of carbon atoms?
Chemistry

Because the number of constitutional, conformational, and geometric isomers goes up with each carbon atom added. There are many more possible configurations and connectivities possible with decane, a 10 carbon chain, than with butane, a 4 carbon chain.

Coke is an impure form of carbon that is often used in the in- dustrial production of metals from their oxides. If a sample of c
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The mass of coke needed to react completely with 1.0 ton of copper(II) oxide is 0.794 Ton.

Explanation:

2CuO+C\rightarrow 2Cu+CO_2

1 Ton = 907185 grams

Mass of copper oxide = 1.0 Ton = 907185 grams

Moles of copper oxide =\frac{907185 g}{79.55 g/mol}=11,403.95 moles

According to reaction, 2 moles of copper oxide reacts with 1 mole of carbon.

Then 11403.95 moles of copper oxide will react with:

\frac{1}{2}\times 11403.95 mol=5,701.98 mol of carbon

Mass of 5,701.98 moles of carbon:

5,701.98 mol\times 12 g/mol=68,423.75 g

Mass of coke = x

Mass of carbon = 68,423.75 g

Percentage of carbon in coke = 95%

95\%=\frac{68,423.75 g}{x}\times 100

x=720,250.09 g=0.794 Ton

The mass of coke needed to react completely with 1.0 ton of copper(II) oxide is 0.794 Ton.

How many moles of potassium hydroxide are needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminum sulfate
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:- Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles


Solution:- The given balanced equation is:


Al_2(SO_4)_3+6KOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3K_2SO_4


We are asked to calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.


From the balanced equation, there is 1:6 mol ratio between aluminium sulfate and potassium hydroxide.


It is a simple mole to mole conversion problem. We solve it using dimensional set up as:


2.94molAl_2(SO_4)_3(\frac{6molKOH}{1molAl_2(SO_4)_3})


= 17.6 mol KOH


So, Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles of potassium hydroxide are required to react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.
