Homes in rural areas where natural gas service is not available often rely on propane to fuel kitchen ranges. The propane is sto

red as a liquid, and the gas to be burned is produced as the liquid evaporates. Suppose an architect has hired you to consult on the choice of a propane tank for such a new home. The propane gas consumed in 1.0 hour by a typical range burner at high power would occupy roughly 165 L at 25°C and 1.0 atm, and the range chosen by the client will have 4 burners. If the tank under consideration holds 400 gallons of liquid propane, what is the minimum number of hours it would take for the range to consume an entire tank of propane? The density of liquid propane is 0.5077 kg/L.

Answer:

2666.7 hours

Explanation:

The key to solve this problem is that we are given the propane gas consumed in one hour by giving us the information of the volume consumed at 1 atm, 298 K (25 +273). Using the gas law we can calculate the rate of consumption  of propane per hour, and from here we can calculate its mass and converting it to gallons and finally diving the 400 gallos by this number.

PV = nRT ∴ n = PV/RT

n = 1 atm x 165 L/ (0.08206 Latm/kmol x 298 K ) = 6.75 mol propane

Mass propane :

6.75 mol x 44 g/mol = 296.88 g

convert this to Kg:

296.88 g/ 1000 g/Kg = 0.30 Kg

calculate the volume in liters this represents by dividing by the density:

0.30 Kg / 0.5077 Kg/L =  0.59 L

changing this to gallons

0.59 L x  1 gallon/3.785 L = 0.15 gallon

and finally calculate how many hours the 400 gallons propane tank will deliver

400 gallon/ 0.15 gallon/hr = 2666.7 hr

How many moles of aluminum are equivalent to 4.816x10^24 atoms? 12.5 8 1.25 0.8
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

8

Explanation:

1 mole = 6.02 × 10²³ atoms

? moles = 4.816 × 10²⁴ atoms.

? Moles = 4.816 × 10²⁴ ÷ 6.02 × 10²³

? Moles = 8 moles

8 moles of aluminum = 4.816 × 10²⁴

Allushta [10]

Answer:

1. some thing that has matter is an apple, a person,a table. things that does 2.not Light.,Sound.,Heat.Energy.Gravity.Time.A Rainbow.Love.

3. Physical changes only change the appearance of a substance, not its chemical composition. Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entirely substance with a new chemical formula. Chemical changes are also known as chemical reactions.

4.A chemical reaction is usually accompanied by easily observed physical effects, such as the emission of heat and light, the formation of a precipitate, the evolution of gas, or a color change. Absolute confirmation of a chemical change can only be validated by chemical analysis of the products!

5.Precipitate: In chemistry, a solid formed by a change in a solution, often due to a chemical reaction or change in temperature that decreases solubility of a solid. In meteorology a precipitate is liquid or solid water (rain, snow, etc.) falling from the sky.

6.n simple terms, the endothermic reactions absorb energy from the surrounding that is in the form of heat. On the other hand, an exothermic reaction releases energy into the surrounding of the system.

A mixture of XO2 (P = 3.00 atm) and O2 (P = 1.00 atm) is placed in a container. This elementary reaction takes place at 27 °C: 2
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

a) \triangle G^{0} = 7.31 kJ/mol

b) K_{-1} = 0.0594 m^{-1} s^{-1}

Explanation:

Equation of reaction:

                                     2 XO_{2} (g) + O_{2} (g) \rightleftharpoons 2XO_{3} (g)

Initial pressure                  3              1              0

Pressure change             2P           1P             2P

Total pressure = (3-2P) + (1-P) + (2P)

Total Pressure = 3.75 atm

(3-2P) + (1-P) + (2P) = 3.75

4 - P = 3.75

P = 4 - 3.75

P = 0.25 atm

Let us calculate the pressure of each of the components of the reaction:

Pressure of XO2 = 3 - 2P = 3 - 2(0.25)

Pressure of XO2 =2.5 atm

Pressure of O2 = 1 - P = 1 -0.25

Pressure of O2 = 0.75 atm

Pressure of XO3 = 2P = 2 * 0.25

Pressure of XO3 = 0.5 atm

From the reaction, equilibrium constant can be calculated using the formula:

K_{p} = \frac{[PXO_{3}] ^{2} }{[PXO_{2}] ^{2}[PO_{2}] }

K_{p} = \frac{0.5^2}{2.5^2 *0.75} \\K_{p} = 0.0533 = K_{eq}

Standard free energy:

\triangle G^{0} = - RT ln k_{eq} \\\triangle G^{0} = -(0.008314*300* ln0.0533)\\\triangle G^{0} = 7.31 kJ/mol

b) value of k−1 at 27 °C, i.e. 300K

K_{1} = 7.8 * 10^{-2} m^{-2} s^{-1}

K_{c} = K_{p}RT\\K_{c} = 0.0533* 0.0821 * 300\\K_{c} = 1.313 m^{-1}

K_{-1} = \frac{K_{1} }{K_{c} } \\K_{-1} = \frac{7.8 * 10^{-2}  }{1.313 }\\K_{-1} = 0.0594 m^{-1} s^{-1}
