Combustion of hydrocarbons such as decane () produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosp

here can trap the Sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the Earth. For this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid decane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. 2. Suppose of decane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly and a temperature of . Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. Round your answer to significant digits.

The missing part of the question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

C10H22(l) + 31/2 O2 (g)-----> 10CO2(g) + 11H2O(l)

V= 70.4L of CO2

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is:

C10H22(l) + 31/2 O2 (g)-----> 10CO2(g) + 11H2O(l)

Number of moles of decane = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of decane= 122gmol-1

n= 0.370×10^3g/122gmol-1= 3.0 moles

T= 13°C +273=286K

P= 1atm

R= 0.082 atmLK-1mol-1

From :

PV= nRT

V= nRT/P

V= 3.0×0.082×286/1

V= 70.4L of CO2

A nitrox ii gas mixture for scuba diving contains oxygen gas at 53 atm and nitrogen gas at 94 atm . what is the total pressure,
Alina [70]

Answer: The total pressure will be 1,11,720 torr.

Explanation:

Partial pressure of nitrogen gas.p_{N_2}=53 atm=53\times 760 torr= 40,280 torr (1atm = 760 torr)

Partial pressure of oxygen gas,p_{O_2}=94 atm=94\times 760 torr=71,440 torr

Total pressure, in torrs, of the scuba gas mixture = 40280 + 71440 torr =111,720 torr

Hence , the total pressure in scuba gas mixture is 111,720 torr.

How does a ketone react with PCl5?,
Reptile [31]

When ketone is reacted with phosphorous pentachloride, chlorination takes place at the carbonyl carbon with substitution of the oxygen atom to give a geminal dichloride (with 2 Cl atoms on same carbon) according to the following equation: 

so we can say that acetone is converted into 2,2-dichloropropane by action of PCl₅

Which equation represents an oxidation-reduction reaction?
bazaltina [42]
In an oxidation-reduction reaction there is an exchange of electrons.


The exchange of electrons implies change in the oxidation states: at least one element increases its oxidation number while other reduces it.


By simple ispection you can predict that in the equation b. there is a change in oxidation states of Cl and Mn.


Now you can check it:


Equation             4H   Cl     +    Mn  O2     ->    Mn  Cl2   + 2H2 O     + Cl2    

oxidation sates   1+  1-             4+   2-              2+   1-         1+   2-         0


The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is 1-  and it changed to 0 in Cl2


The oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 is 4+ and it changed to 2+ in MnCl2
