How many grams of oxygen are required to react with 17.0 grams of octane (c8h18) in the combustion of octane in gasoline?

Chemistry

Keith_Richards [23]2 years ago

The balanced equation for the combustion of octane is as follows
2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ---> 16CO₂  + 18H₂O
stoichiometry of C₈H₁₈  to O₂ is 2:25
number of octane moles reacted - 17.0 g / 114.2 g/mol = 0.149 mol 
according to molar ratio 
if 2 mol of octane reacts with 25 mol of O₂
then 0.149 mol of octane reacts with - 25 /2 x 0.149 mol = 1.86 mol of O₂
 mass of O₂  - 1.86 mol x 32 g/mol = 59.5 g
59.5 g of O₂ is required to react with

You need 270 ml of a 65% alcohol solution. on hand, you have a 90% alcohol mixture. how much of the 90% alcohol mixture and pure
olganol [36]

You must add 75 mL water to 195 mL 90 % alcohol to make 270 mL of 65 % alcohol.

<em>Step 1.</em> Calculate the volume of 90 % alcohol needed

You can use the dilution formula

<em>V</em>1×<em>C</em>1 = <em>V</em>2×<em>C</em>2

where

<em>V</em>1 and<em> V</em>2 are the volumes of the two solutions

<em>C</em>1 and <em>C</em>2 are the concentrations

You can solve the above formula to get

<em>V</em>2 = <em>V</em>1 × <em>C</em>1/<em>C</em>2

<em>V</em>1 = 270 mL; <em>C</em>1 = 65 %

V2 = ?; _____<em>C</em>2 = 90 %

∴<em>V</em>2 = 270 mL × (65 %/90 %) = 195 mL

You need 195 mL of 90 % alcohol to make 270 mL of 65 % RA

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the amount of water to add.

Volume of water = 270 mL – 195 mL = 75 mL

The value of Ka for nitrous acid (HNO2) at 25 ∘C is 4.5×10−4 .a. Write the chemical equation for the equilibrium that correspond
kvv77 [185]

Answers and Explanation:

a)- The chemical equation for the corresponden equilibrium of Ka1 is:

2. HNO2(aq)⇌H+(aq)+NO−2

Because Ka1 correspond to a dissociation equilibrium. Nitrous acid (HNO₂) losses a proton (H⁺) and gives the monovalent anion NO₂⁻.

b)- The relation between Ka and the free energy change (ΔG) is given by the following equation:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

Where T is the temperature (T= 25ºc= 298 K) and R is the gases constant (8.314 J/K.mol)

At the equilibrium: ΔG=0 and Q= Ka. So, we can calculate ΔGº by introducing the value of Ka:

⇒ 0 = ΔGº + RT ln Ka

   ΔGº= - RT ln Ka

   ΔGº= -8.314 J/K.mol x 298 K x ln (4.5 10⁻⁴)

  ΔGº= 19092.8 J/mol

c)- According to the previous demonstation, at equilibrium ΔG= 0.

d)- In a non-equilibrium condition, we have Q which is calculated with the concentrations of products and reactions in a non equilibrium state:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

Q= ((H⁺) (NO₂⁻))/(HNO₂)

Q= ( (5.9 10⁻² M) x (6.7 10⁻⁴ M) ) / (0.21 M)

Q= 1.88 10⁻⁴

We know that   ΔGº= 19092.8 J/mol, so:

ΔG= ΔGº + RT ln Q

ΔG= 19092.8 J/mol + (8.314 J/K.mol x 298 K x ln (1.88 10⁻⁴)

ΔG= -2162.4 J/mol

Notice that ΔG<0, so the process is spontaneous in that direction.
