Is Ca + O --&gt; CaO a balanced chemical equation? Is it obeying the law of conservation of matter? Question 5 options: Yes it i
iren [92.7K]

Answer is: Yes it is balanced. It has the same number of Ca and O on both the reactant side and the product side.

According to principle of mass conservation, number of atoms must be equal on both side of chemical reaction.

There is one calcium atom atom and one oxygen atom on both side of reaction, so chemical reaction is balanced.

g When 2.50 g of methane (CH4) burns in oxygen, 125 kJ of heat is produced. What is the enthalpy of combustion (in kJ) per mole
Anna [14]

Answer:

-800 kJ/mol

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we have to express the enthalpy of combustion (ΔHc) in kJ per mole (kJ/mol).

First, we have to calculate the moles of methane (CH₄) there are in 2.50 g of substance. For this, we divide the mass into the molecular weight Mw) of CH₄:

Mw(CH₄) = 12 g/mol C + (1 g/mol H x 4) = 16 g/mol

moles CH₄ = mass CH₄/Mw(CH₄)= 2.50 g/(16 g/mol) = 0.15625 mol CH₄

Now, we divide the heat released into the moles of CH₄ to obtain the enthalpy per mole of CH₄:

ΔHc = heat/mol CH₄ = 125 kJ/(0.15625 mol) = 800 kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of methane is -800 kJ/mol (the minus sign indicated that the heat is released).
