Answer:

the equation of the octane and balanced combustion is as follows:

2C8H18 + 25O2 = 16CO2 + 18H2O

Explanation:

Octane combustion is a chemical chain reaction, producing heat.

The spark-ignited combustion engine transforms the thermal energy from the combustion of gasoline plus air into motive energy. The combustion of gasoline is preceded by the formation of gasoline and air in the carburettor, this mixture enters the cylinder through the supply system, then is compressed by the upward stroke of the piston and then inflamed by the spark. Due to combustion, the volume of the mixture increases rapidly, creating a strong pressure that moves the piston.

How many grams of acetylene are produced by adding water to 5.00 g CaC2?
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

2.03125g of acetylene

Explanation:

First thing's first, we have to write out the balanced chemical equation;

CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq) + C2H2(g)

Water is in excess, so CAC2 is our limiting reactant. i.e it determines the amount of product that would be formed.

1 mol of CaC2 produces 1 mol of C2H2

In terms of mass;

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

where the molar mass of the elements are;

Ca = 40g/mol

C = 12g/mol

H = 1g/mol

CaC2 = 40+ (2*12) = 64g/mol

C2H2 =( 2 * 12) + ( 2 * 1) = 26g/mol

64g (1 * 64g/mol) of CaC2 produces 26g ( 1mol * 26g/mol) of C2H2

5g would produce x?

64 = 26

5 = x

Upon solving for x we have;

x = (5 * 26) / 64

x = 2.03125g

Calculate the volume of a sample of aluminum that has a mass of 3.057 kg. The density of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm3 (taking into con
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

v = 1130 cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of sample = ?

Mass of Al sample = 3.057 Kg (3.057 Kg× 1000g/1 Kg = 3057g)

Density of Al sample = 2.70 g/cm³

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v= volume

by putting values

2.70 g/cm³ = 3057g /v

v = 3057g /2.70 g/cm³

v = 1130 cm³
