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

When 100 mL of 0.200 M NaCl(aq) and 100 mL of 0.200 M AgNO3(aq), both at 21.9 °C, are mixed in a coffee cup calorimeter, the tem
masya89 [10]

Answer:

There is 1.3 kJ heat produced(released)

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Volume of a 0.200 M Nacl solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L

Volume of a 0.200 M AgNO3 solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L

Initial temperature = 21.9 °C

Final temperature = 23.5 °C

Solid AgCl will be formed

<u>Step 2</u>: The balanced equation:

AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)

AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) → Na+(aq) + NO3-(aq) + AgCl(s)

<u>Step 3:</u> Define the formula

Pressure is constant.  → the heat evolved from the reaction is equivalent to the enthalpy of reaction.  

Q=m*c*ΔT

⇒ Q = the heat transfer (in joule)

⇒ m =the mass (in grams)

⇒ c= the heat capacity (J/g°C)

⇒ ΔT = Change in temperature = T2- T1

Step 4: Calculate heat

Let's vonsider the density the same as the density of water (1g/mL)

Mass = volume * density

Mass = 200 mL * 1g/mL

Mass = 200 grams

Q= m*c*ΔT

⇒ m = 200 grams

⇒ c = the heat capacity (let's consider the heat capacity of water) = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT = 23.5 -21.9 = 1.6°C

Q = 200 * 4.184 * 1.6 = 1338 .9 J = 1.3 kJ

There is 1.3 kJ heat produced(released)

Therefore, we assumed no heat is absorbed by the calorimeter, no heat is exchanged between the  calorimeter and its surroundings, and the specific heat and mass of the solution are the same as those for  water (1g/mL and 4.184 J/g°C)

From goal line to goal line, a football field is 300 ft long. If a player catches the ball while standing on one goal line, runs
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The player ran 91.44m.

Explanation:

The problem gives you the total distance between goal line to goal line in feet, and the answer must be given in meters, so you should convert the distance the player run from ft to m, because the player run the same distance from goal line to goal line to scores the touchdown.

So, you should apply the following conversion factor:

300ft*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}= 91.44m

The player ran 91.44m.

What is the connection between diamonds and stardust?
Ede4ka [16]

According to an article dated back in February 8, 1992 which is entitled, “Science: Stardust is made of diamonds” on a website called newscientist (https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg13318073-000-science-stardust-is-made-of-diamonds/), American astronomers believed that diamonds are made in supernova explosions. It was said that the diamonds were the foundation of uncommon combinations of isotopes found in some meteorites. Donald Clayton of Clemson University in South Carolina suggested that the weightiest isotopes were more common in meteorites for the reason that the rare gases shaped in the neutron-rich outcome of a supernova explosion. Clayton also said, “the observed mixture of isotopes could have been produced only during the collapse of a massive star to form a neutron star”. This happens in a Type II explosion, for example the Supernova 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud. And rare gases like xenon become stuck in both weighty and light isotopes after the ejected gas from such a supernova cools down enough to create dust. The existence of the diamonds with these unusual gases in meteorites infers an alike source. Some of the carbon in the supernova fragments produces ordinary graphite dust, whereas some produces diamond dust. Considerable amount of stardust may be made of diamonds, if Clayton was not mistaken.
