How many grams of carbon dioxide are produced from the combustion of 1.3 moles of acetylene

1 answer:

8 0

Complete combustion of acetylene generated carbon dioxide and water. This can be represent by following reaction

2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O
(2 mole) (4 mole)

From the above balanced reaction, it can be seen that 2 mole of acetylene on complete combustion generates 4 moles of carbon dioxide
i.e. 2 mole of C2H2 ≡ 4 mole of CO2
∴ 1.3 mole of C2H2 ≡ (4 X 1.3)/2 = 2.6 mole of CO2

Now, 1 mole of CO2 = 44 g
∴ 2.6 mole of CO2 = (44 X 2.6) = 114.4 g

Thus, <span>114.4 grams of carbon dioxide are produced from the combustion of 1.3 moles of acetylene</span>

What is NOT a condition needed for a hurricane to form?

yuradex [85]

Answer:

The first condition is that ocean waters must be above 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit). Below this threshold temperature, hurricanes will not form or will weaken rapidly once they move over water below this threshold.

The half life for the decay of carbon- is years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon- in a tiny samp

EleoNora [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The half-life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73x10^3 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14 in a tiny sample of an artifact made of woodfrom an archeological dig is measured to be 2.8x10^3 Bq. The activity in a similiar-sized sample of fresh wood is measured to be 3.0x10^3 Bq. Calculate the age of the artifact. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

570 years

Explanation:

The activity of the fresh sample is taken as the initial activity of the wood sample while the activity measured at a time t is the present activity of the wood artifact. The time taken for the wood to attain its current activity can be calculated from the formula shown in the image attached. The activity at a time t must always be less than the activity of a fresh wood sample. Detailed solution is found in the image attached.

What is the final pressure of a system (atm) that has the volume increased from 0.75 l to 1.1 l with an initial pressure of 1.25

lana66690 [7]

Boyle's law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume of gas at constant temperature
PV = k
where P - pressure , V - volume and k - constant
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
substituting these values in the equation
1.25 atm x 0.75 L = P x 1.1 L
P = 0.85 atm
final pressure is B) 0.85 atm

What is the role of NaCl and EDTA in DNA isolation?

alexandr402 [8]

<span>The following is the role of NaCl and EDTA in DNA isolation, hope it helps:

NaCl provides Na+ ions that will block negative charge from phosphates on DNA. Negatively charged phosphates on DNA cause molecules to repel each other. The Na+ ions will form an ionic bond with the negatively charged phosphates on the DNA, neutralizing the negative charges and allowing the DNA molecules to come together.</span>
