The balanced combustion reaction for one mole of ethane will be

C2H6 + 3.5 O2  ---> 2CO2(g) + 3H2O (l)

Enthalpy of reaction of combustion = ∑ΔHf (products)- ∑ΔHf (reactant)

ΔHf = enthalpy of formation

The enthalpy of formation of oxygen = 0 as it is an element in its native state

ΔHf C2H6 = -83.820 kJ / mole

ΔHf H2O = -285.830 kJ / mole

ΔHf CO2 = -393.509 kJ / mole

ΔHrxn = [2 X ΔHf CO2 + 3 X ΔHf H2O] - [ΔHf C2H6]

ΔHrxn = [2 X (-393.509) + 3 (-285.830)] - [-83.820]

ΔHrxn = -1560.688 kJ / mole

The heat of combustion of ethane C₂H₆: <u>-1559.9 kJ / mol </u>

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The change in enthalpy in the formation of 1 mole of the elements is called enthalpy of formation

The enthalpy of formation measured in standard conditions (25 ° C, 1 atm) is called the standard enthalpy of formation (ΔHf °)

Determination of the enthalpy of formation of a reaction can be through a calorimetric experiment, based on the principle of Hess's Law, enthalpy of formation table, or from bond energy data

Delta H reaction (ΔH) is the amount of heat / heat change between the system and its environment

(ΔH) can be positive (endothermic = requires heat) or negative (exothermic = releasing heat)

The value of ° H ° can be calculated from the change in enthalpy of standard formation:

<h3>∆H ° rxn = ∑n ∆Hf ° (product) - ∑n ∆Hf ° (reactants) </h3>

ΔH∘rxn = ΔH∘f of the product (s) if ∆Hf ° (reactants) = 0

<em>The elements in standard conditions are not included in the enthalpy calculations because the enthalpy of those elements under the standard conditions is </em><u><em>zero. </em></u>

The reaction of the combustion of hydrocarbons with oxygen produces CO₂ and H₂O (water vapor )

Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (specifically alkanes)

[tex] \large {\box {\bold {C_nH _ (_2_n _ + _ 2_) + \frac {3n + 1} {2} O_2 ----> nCO_2 + (n + 1) H_2O}}} [ /tex]

From data on the internet:

∆H ° f H₂O: -285.8 kJ

°H ° f CO₂: -393.5 kJ

°H ° f C₂H₆: -84.7 kJ

Combustion of ethane, C₂H₆

2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)

= {[4 (∆H ° f CO₂ (g))] + [6 (∆H ° f H₂O (l))]} - {2 [∆H ° f C₂H₆ (g)] + [(7) (∆ H ° f O₂ (g))]}

= {[4 (-393.5 kJ)] + [6 (-285.8 kJ]} - {2 [-84.7 kJ] + [(0 kJ)]}

= -1574 kJ -1714.8 kJ +169.4 kJ

= 3119.8 kJ (for 2 mol C₂H₆)

for 1 mole C₂H₆ ---> 3119.8 kJ: 2 = = -1559.9 kJ / mol

If 200.4g of water is mixed with 101.42g of salt the mass of the final solution would be reported as
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

301.8 g

Explanation:

We prepare a solution with 200.4 g of water (solvent) and 101.42 g of salt (solute). The mass of the solution is equal to the sum of the mass of the solvent and the mass of the solute.

m(solution) = m(solute) + m(solvent)

m(solution) = 200.4 g + 101.42 g

m(solution) = 301.8 g (we round-off to one decimal according to the significant figures rules)

A mover packs books, CDs, and DVDs into a moving box. If the box contains 6.5 kg of books, 1.5 kg of CDs, and 2.0 kg of DVDs, wh
mariarad [96]
Given: 
<span>M1 = 6.5 kg of books
</span><span>M2 = 1.5 kg of CDs
</span><span>M3 = 2.0 kg of DVDs

Required: percent by mass of each object

Solution:
First, we calculate the total mass.

M = 6.5 kg + 1.5 kg + 2.0 kg =  10 kg

Percent by mass is calculated by getting the ration of the mass of an object and the total mass multiplied by 100 to get the percent.

%M1 = 6.5 / 10 x 100 = 65%
%M2 = 1.5/10 x 100 = 15%
%M3 = 2.0/10 x 100 = 20%</span>
