To answer your question I will use dimensional analysis, which is used by cancelling out the units. I will also use the balanced equation provided as a conversion factor.

A) First start out with the 0.300 mol of C6H12O6...
0.300 mol C6H12O6 * (2 mol CO2 / 1 mol C6H12O6) = 0.600 mol CO2

*The significant figures (sig figs) at still three, the 2 is a conversion counting number and does not count*

B) First change 2.00 g of C2H5OH to moles of C2H5OH...
The molecular mass of C2H5OH is...
2(12.01 g/mol) + 5(1.008 g/mol) + 16.00 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol = 46.07 g/mol
This can be used as a conversion factor to change grams to moles. 
2.00 g C2H5OH * (1 mol C2H5OH / 46.07 g C2H5OH) = 0.0434 mol C2H5OH

Second, you can change the moles of C2H5OH to moles of C6H12O6..
0.0434 mol C2H5OH * (1 mol C6H12O6 / 2 mol C6H12O6) = 0.0217 mol C6H12O6

Third, change moles of C6H12O6 to grams...
MM = 6(12.01 g/mol) + 12(1.008 g/mol) + 6(16.00 g/mol) = 180.16 g/mol
0.0217 mol C6H12O6 * (180.16 g C6H12O6 / 1 mol C6H12O6) = 3.91 g C6H12O6

C) Now I am going to put it all into one long dimensional analysis problem.
MM of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol
MM of C2H5OH = 46.07 g/mol

2.00 g C2H5OH * (1 mol C2H5OH / 46.07 g C2H5OH) * (2 mol CO2 / 2 mol C2H5OH) * (44.01 g CO2 / 1 mol CO2) = 1.91 g CO2

I hope this helped and I am sorry that I talked to much, I just didn't want to miss anything!

A gaseous fossil fuel produced from organic matter that is used to heat homes and cook
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Natural gas

Explanation:

Natural gas is a gaseous fossil fuel produced from organic matter that is used to heat homes and cook food.

Natural gas is one of the most volatile part of hydrocarbons that exist together with fossil fuel.

  • In a reservoir, natural gas is usually on top of the fossil fuel reserve.
  • It can also be distilled from crude oil as they rises up on top of the column first due to their low boiling point
  • The gas mixture is made up light hydrocarbons from methane to hexane.

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does an atom with atomic number 50 and mass number 125 contain?
kherson [118]
The number of protons in an atom is equal the atomic number (= 50)

The sum of the Neutrons and Protons is the Atomic Mass (=125)
Neutrons + Protons=125

Plug in for the protons (50)
Neutrons +(50)=125

Then, once solved, we have Neutrons = 75

Assuming the atom is NOT an ion, the amount of electrons is equal to the number of protons. (protons=electrons=50=50)

Therefore:
There are 50 electrons, 50 protons, and 75 electrons.

A thermometer having first-order dynamics with a time constant of 1 min is placed in a temperature bath at 100oF. After the ther
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

(a) See below

(b) 103.935 °F; 102.235 °F

Explanation:

The equation relating the temperature to time is

T = T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )

1. Calculate the thermometer readings after  0.5 min and 1 min

(a) After 0.5 min

\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-0.5/1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-0.5} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10 (1 - 0.6065)\\ & = & 100 + 10(0.3935)\\ & = & 100 + 3.935\\ & = & 103.935\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}

(b) After 1 min

\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-1/1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10 (1 - 0.3679)\\ & = & 100 + 10(0.6321)\\ & = & 100 + 6.321\\ & = & 106.321\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}

2. Calculate the thermometer reading after 2.0 min

T₀ =106.321 °F

ΔT = 100 - 106.321 °F = -6.321 °F

  t = t - 1, because the cooling starts 1 min late

\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-(t - 1)/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321\left (1 - e^{-(2 - 1)/1} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321\left (1 - e^{-1} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321 (1 - 0.3679)\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321 (0.6321)\\ & = & 106.321 - 3.996\\ & = & 102.325\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}

3. Plot the temperature readings as a function of time.

The graphs are shown below.
