Answer:

8.37 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

C₆H₁₂O₆     ⇒   2 C₂H₅OH (l) + 2 CO₂ (g)

Now we are asked to calculate the mass  of glucose required to produce 2.25 L CO₂ at 1atm and 295 K.

From the ideal gas law we can determine the number of moles that the 2.25 L represent.

From there we will use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the moles of glucose which knowing the molar mass can be converted to mass.

PV = nRT    ⇒ n = PV/RT

n= 1 atm x 2.25 L / ( 0.08205 Latm/kmol x 295 K ) =0.093 mol CO₂

Moles glucose required:

0.093 mol CO₂  x  ( 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆   / 2 mol CO₂ ) =  0.046 mol C₆H₁₂O₆

The molar mass of glucose is 180.16 g/mol, then the mass required is

0.046 mol x 180.16 g/mol = 8.37 g

What are chemical changes of sodium hydroxide
pochemuha

Answer: Sodium + water → hydrogen gas + sodium hydroxide (aq) + heat [(aq) means “dissolved in water”. It stands for “aqueous”.] If we boil off the water, we will be able to see the sodium hydroxide crystals. The sodium hydroxide is one of the two new substances produced by this chemical change.

The cell potential of the following electrochemical cell depends on the pH of the solution in the anode half-cell:Pt(s)|H2(g, 1a
meriva

Answer:

0.51

Explanation:

Given the Nernst equation;

E= E° - 0.0592/n logQ

E= 355 mV or 0.355 V

E° = 0.34 - 0= 0.34 V

n= 2(two electrons were transferred in the process)

Equation of the reaction;

H2(g) + Cu^2+(aq) -----> 2H^+(aq) + Cu(s)

Substituting values;

0.355 = 0.34 - 0.0592/2 log([H^+]/1)

0.355 - 0.34 = - 0.0296 log [H^+]

0.015/-0.0296 = log [H^+]

Antilog (-0.5068) = [H^+]

[H^+] = 0.311 M

pH = -log[H^+]

pH= - log(0.311 M)

pH = 0.51
