Toluene, C7H8, is used in the manufacture of explosives such as TNT (trinitrotoluene). A 1.500 g sample of liquid toluene was pl

aced in a bomb calorimeter along with excess oxygen. When the combustion of the toluene was initiated, the temperature of the calorimeter rose from 25.000 °C to 26.413 °C. The products of the combustion were CO2(g) and H2O(l), and the heat capacity of the calorimeter was 45.06 kJ °C−1 . Write the balanced chemical equation for the reation in the calorimeter.

Answer:

The answer to your question is      C₇H₈  +    9O₂   ⇒   7CO₂  +   4H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Toluene   C₇H₈

mass = 1500 g

Excess Oxygen

Temperature 1 = 25°C

Temperature 2 = 26.413°C

Products CO₂ and H₂O

Heat capacity = 45.06 kJ/°C

Balanced chemical equation

            Toluene  +  Oxygen  ⇒   Carbon dioxide  +  Water

                    C₇H₈  +    O₂   ⇒   CO₂  +   H₂O

                 Reactants       Elements     Products

                        7               Carbon               1

                        8               Hydrogen          2

                        2               Oxygen              3

This reaction is unbalanced

                   C₇H₈  +    9O₂   ⇒   7CO₂  +   4H₂O

                 Reactants       Elements     Products

                        7               Carbon               7

                        8               Hydrogen          8

                       18               Oxygen              18

Now, the reaction is balanced

A bulb is found to weigh 5.76 grams more when filled with air at 298 K and 1.00 atmosphere pressure than when it is evacuated. W
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Subtract water vapor pressure from total pressure to get partial pressure of gas A: PA=1.03 atm- 1 atm=0.03 atm.

What is the total pressure of the gases at 298 K?

98.8 kPa

A sample of nitrogen gas is bubbled through water at 298 K and the volume collected is 250 mL. The total pressure of the gas, which is saturated with water vapour, is found to be 98.8 kPa at 298 K.

The total pressure of a mixture of gases can be defined as the sum of the pressures of each individual gas: Ptotal=P1+P2+… +Pn. + P n . The partial pressure of an individual gas is equal to the total pressure multiplied by the mole fraction of that gas.

How do you find the partial pressure of water in air?

e is vapor pressure Rv = R∗/Mv = 461.5Jkg−1K−1 and Mv = 18.01gmol−1, ϵ = Mv/Md = 0.622. The vapor pressure is the partial pressure of the water vapor. where es is in Pascals and T is in Celsius.

ExpHow do you find the pressure of h2?

For the high pressures in which hydrogen gas is often stored, the van der Waals equation can be used. It is P+a(n/V)^2=nRT. For diatomic hydrogen gas, a=0.244atm L^2/mol^2 and b=0.0266L/mol.lanation:

Why is a crystal of Strontium chloride described as an extended structure?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Chloride is described as an extended structure because its atoms are arranged following an endless repeating pattern and are of distinct ratio

Crystals and polymers mostly form extended structures as seen in the formation of sodium chloride whereby the ions in the compound are arranged following a repeating pattern. ( i.e. has a giant ionic structure ).

Chloride is a considered an extended structure because in sodium chloride it forms an unending repeated pattern of ions which makes it a perfect example of an extended structure.

Hence we can conclude that Chloride can be described as an extended structure because its atoms are arranged following a repeating pattern and are of distinct ratio.

A chemist measures the amount of bromine liquid produced during an experiment. She finds that 14.4 g of of bromine liquid is pro
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

0.09 moles of Br₂

Explanation:

Bromine liquid it refers at Br₂ molecule which is liquid at room temperature.

Now to calculate the number of moles we use the following formula:

number of moles = mass (g) / molecular mass (g/mol)

For Br₂ molecule we have:

number of moles = 14.4 / 160 = 0.09 moles of Br₂
