A major component of gasoline is octane (C8H18). When octane is burned in air, it chemically reacts with oxygen gas (O2) to prod

uce carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O. What mass of carbon dioxide is produced by the reaction of 7.58 g of octane? Please explain the answer to me like I'm five, I want to understand but the content makes no sense.

Answer:

Mass = 23.232 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₈H₁₈ = 7.58 g

Mass of CO₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂      →     16CO₂ + 18H₂O

Number of moles of octane:

Number of  moles =  mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 7.58 g/ 114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.066 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ with octane from balance chemical equation.

                  C₈H₁₈            :           CO₂

                       2              :              16

                 0.066             :           16/2×0.066 = 0.528

Mass of CO₂ produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.528 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 23.232 g

Why doesn’t alcohol freeze?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer: Because it's a combination of chemicals, vodka doesn't freeze at the same temperature as either water or alcohol. Of course, vodka will freeze, but not at the temperature of an ordinary freezer. This is because vodka contains enough alcohol to lower the freezing point of water below the -17°C of your typical freezer.

Find ∆G for a cell whose potential is +0.24 V with 4 moles of electrons exchanged.
Setler [38]
We need to use the following formula
ΔG= -nF E_{cell}

E_{cell}= 0.24V
n= 4 moles
F= constant= 96500C/mol

let's plug in the values.

ΔG= -(4)(96500)(0.24)= -92640 J or -92.6 kJ

What is the minimum of acetic anhydride (102.1 g/mol) required to react completely with the 2.94 grams of salicylic acid? What v
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

a) the minimun of acetic anhydride required for the  reaction is 2.175 g (CH3CO)2O

b) V acetic anhydride = 2.010 mL

Explanation:

  • balanced reaction:

      C6H4OHCOOH + (CH3CO)2O  ↔  C9H8O4 + C2H4O2

⇒ mol salicylic acid = 2.94 g C6H4OHCOOH * ( mol C6H4OHCOOH / 138.121 g ) = 0.0213 mol C6H4OHCOOH

⇒ mol acetic anhydride = 0.0213 mol C6H4OHCOOH * ( mol (CH3CO)2O /  mol  C6H4OHCOOH ) = 0.0213 mol (CHECO)2O

⇒ g acetic anhydride = 0.0213 mol * ( 102.1 g/mol ) = 2.175 g CH3CO)2O

b) V = 2.175 g (CH3CO)2 * ( mL / 1.082 g ) = 2.010 mL (CH3CO)2O

Write the chemical formula for sodium hypobromite.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

             NaOBr  (or)  Na⁺ ⁻OBr

Explanation:

The Oxo-Acids of Bromine are as follow,

                           Hypobromous Acid  =  HOBr

                           Bromous Acid  =  HOBrO

                           Bromic Acid  =  HBrO₃

                           Perbromic Acid  =  HBrO₄

When these acids are converted to their conjugate bases their names are as follow,

                           Hypobromite  =  ⁻OBr

                           Bromite  =  ⁻OBrO

                           Bromate  =  ⁻OBrO₂

                           Perbromate  =  ⁻OBrO₃

According to rules, the positive part of ionic compound is named first and the negative part is named second. So, Sodium Hypobromite has a chemical formula of Na⁺ ⁻OBr or NaOBr.
