Answer:

We need 67.2 grams of 02. There  will be produced 92.421 grams of CO2

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> The balanced equation

C6H12O6 (aq) + 6O2 (g) = 6CO2 (g) + 6H2O (l)

<u>Step 2</u>: Data given

We can see that for 1 mole C6H12O6 consumed, we need 6 moles of O2 to produce 6 moles of CO2 and 6 moles of H2O

The mass of glucose is 63.0g

The molar mass of glucose is 180.156 g/mole

The molar mass of O2 is 32 g/mole

The molar mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mole

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate number of moles of glucose

Number of moles of glucose = mass of glucose / molar mass of glucose

Number of moles of glucose = 63 grams /180.156 g/moles = 0.35 moles

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate number of moles of oxygen ( and CO2)

For 1 mole of glucose we need 6 moles of O2 to produce 6 moles of CO2 and 6 moles of H2O

So for 0.35 moles of glucose we need 6*0.35 = 2.1 moles of O2 to produce 2.1 moles of CO2 and 2.1 moles of H2O

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate mass of oxygen ( and CO2)

mass of oxygen = number of moles of oxygen * Molar mass of oxygen

mass of oxygen = 2.1 moles * 32 g/mole = 67.2 g O2 (≈ 67 grams)

mass of CO2 = number of moles of CO2 * Molar mass of CO2

mass of CO2 = 2.1 moles * 44.01 g/mole = 92.421 grams

We need 67.2 grams of 02. There  will be produced 92.421 grams of CO2

In this experiment you will create solutions with different ratios of ethanol and water. What is the mole fraction of ethanol wh
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The mole fraction of ethanol is 0.6. A 10 mL volumetric pipette must be used for to measure the 10 mL of ethanol. The vessel should be clean and purged.

Explanation:

For calculating mole fraction of ethanol, the amount of moles ethanol must be calculated. Using ethanol density (0.778 g/mL), 10 mL of ethanol equals to 7.89 g of ethanol and in turn 0.17 moles of ethanol. The same way for calculate the amount of water moles (ethanol density=0.997 g/mL). 2 mL of water correspond to 0.11. The total moles are: 0.17+0.11=0.28. Mole fraction alcohol is: 0.17/0.28=0.6

Which is more reactive oxygen or hydrogen? explain why?
mash [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

Which is more reactive hydrogen or oxygen?

Hydrogen is not particularly reactive. For example, just mixing hydrogen and oxygen gas will not cause a reaction at room temperature, but many metal elements oxidize at least on the surface in air. ... It is combustible because oxygen wants electrons and takes them from hydrogen to form water.
