Answer:

709 g

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Balanced equation

Normally, we would need a balanced chemical equation.

However, we can get by with a partial equation, as log as carbon atoms are balanced.

We know we will need an equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s <em>gather all the information</em> in one place.

M_r: 30.07 236.74

C₂H₆ + … ⟶ C₂Cl₆ + …

m/g: 90.0

(i) Calculate the moles of C₂H₆

n = 90.0 g C₂H₆ × (1 mol C₂H₆ /30.07 g C₂H₆)

= 2.993 mol C₂H₆

(ii) Calculate the moles of C₂Cl₆

The molar ratio is (1 mol C₂Cl₆/1 mol C₂H₆)

n = 2.993 mol C₂H₆ × (1 mol C₂Cl₆/1 mol C₂H₆)

= 2.993 mol C₂Cl₆

(iii) Calculate the mass of C₂Cl₆

m = 2.993 mol C₂Cl₆ × (236.74 g C₂Cl₆/1 mol C₂Cl₆)

m = 709 g C₂Cl₆

The reaction produces 709 g C₂Cl₆.

The quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1⁰c is defined as

Alex

Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. It is the amount per unit mass that is required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Every substance has its own specific heat and each has its own distinct value. The units of specific heat are joules per gram-degree Celsius (J/f C) and sometimes J/Kg K may also be used.

What is the total pressure exerted by a mixture of 48.0 grams of CH4 and 56.0 grams of

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The pressure of the gas is obtained as 48 atm.

<h3>What is the total pressure?</h3>

Now we know that;

Number of moles of CH4 = 48.0 grams /16 g/mol = 3 moles

Number of moles of H2 = 56.0 grams/2 g/mol = 28 moles

Total number of moles present = 3 moles + 28 moles = 31 moles

Using;

PV =nRT

P = total pressure

V = total volume

n = total number of moles

R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = nRT/V

P = 31 * 0.082 * 286/15

P = 48 atm

Write a balanced net ionic equation for the following reaction: SrCl2(aq) + H2CO3(aq) → SrCO3(s) + HCl (aq)

max2010maxim [7]

We will balance the equation in the following order: metals, amethals, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (the most common order).
The metal present in the equation is Sr, which is already balanced (there are 1 on each side of the equation).
The amethal present in the equation is Cl. There is 2 Cl in the left side and only one in the right side. So, we will multiply the quantity of the molecule that contains Cl by 2. Doing this, we'll obtain:

$SrCl_2_{(aq)}+H_2CO_3_{(aq)}\to SrCO_3_{(s)}+2HCl_{(aq)}$

Looking at the equation, we can see that it is now fully balanced. Hence, a balanced equation of the reaction is:

$SrCl_2_{(aq)}+H_2CO_3_{(aq)}\to SrCO_3_{(s)}+2HCl_{(aq)}$

The image formed by a lens may be real or virtual. The image formed by a lens is always virtual.

amid [387]

There are types of lens; concave and convex lens.
The concave lens is a lens which has an inward curve in the middle, that is, the edges of the curve are thicker than the center of the lens, because of this, any light that enter the lens will spread out [diverge]. An image will look smaller and upright when viewed by a concave lens. Image formed by concave lens are usually VIRTUAL.
A concave lens will produce a real image ONLY if the object is located beyond the focal point of the lens.
A convex lens is a converging lens, this is because, the center of the lens is thicker than its edges. Any ray of light that passes through the lens will converge at the middle of the lens at point called principal focus. A convex lens produce a VIRTUAL image when the object is placed infront of the focal point. The virtual image formed is always magnified and upright.<span />
