Answer:

mass of CO2 = 88 g

Explanation:

It is stated in question that 18.7 g of oxygen remained unreacted which means that carbon is limiting reactant. Thus the amount of carbon dioxide produced depend upon the amount of carbon.

Given data:

mass of carbon = 24 g

total mass of oxygen 82.7 g

mass of unreacted oxygen = 18.7 g

mass of carbon dioxide = ?

Solution:

First of we will calculate the moles of carbon.

number of moles of carbon = mass of carbon / atomic weight

number of moles of carbon = 24 g/ 12 g/mol = 2 mol

Chemical equation:

C + O2 → CO2

now we compare the number of moles of carbon and carbon dioxide,

  C   :  CO2

  1    :    1

 2    :    2

Now we will calculate the mass of carbon dioxide from moles.

number of moles of CO2 = mass of CO2 / molar mass of CO2

2 mol × 44 g/mol = mass

mass of CO2 = 88 g

The carbon-carbon double bond in ethene is ________ and ________ than the carbon-carbon triple bond in ethyne.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

weaker and longer

Explanation:

Since there are 3 bonds in ethyne in comparision with the 2 bonds of ethyne between carbon atoms, they are attracted more to each other → the bond gets shorter . And since there are one more bond that supports the union → the bond gets stronger

thus the carbon-carbon double bond in ethene is weaker and longer than the carbon-carbon triple bond in ethyne

When steam from a pan of boiling water reaches a cool window, it condenses. How much
andriy [413]

Because the air right above your hot pan of water is so warm, the water vapor can be quickly absorbed there. When the heat is removed, the hot convective up current from the pan vanishes and is replaced with cooler air that can no longer contain as much moisture, which makes the condensing water vapour visible.

First, it's important to discuss the "steam" that is produced by the hot water. While we refer to it as steam, it is not. Water that is heated above 100 degrees Celsius produces steam. The only area in the kitchen where you can see it clearly is if you look very closely at the spout of a boiling kettle. The first 5mm (1/4") of the liquid will be clear when it is boiling very near to the spout.
