Answer : The fuel value and the fuel density of pentane is, 49.09 kJ/g and 3.073\times 10^4kJ/L respectively.

Explanation :

Fuel value : It is defined as the amount of energy released from the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. The fuel value always in positive and in kilojoule per gram (kJ/g).

As we are given that:

\Delta H^o_{comb}=-3535kJ/mol

Fuel value = \frac{\Delta H^o_{comb}}{\text{Molar mass of pentane}}

Molar mass of pentane = 72 g/mol

Fuel value = \frac{3535kJ/mol}{72g/mol}

Fuel value = 49.09 kJ/g

Now we have to calculate the fuel density of pentane.

Fuel density = Fuel value × Density

Fuel density = (49.09 kJ/g) × (0.626g/mL)

Fuel density = 30.73 kJ/mL = 3.073\times 10^4kJ/L

Thus, the fuel density of pentane is 3.073\times 10^4kJ/L

Determine the percent water in MgSO4*7H20?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

\% H_2O=51.2\%

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the percent water is computed by dividing the amount of water by the total mass of the hydrate; we infer we first need the molar mass of water and that of the hydrate as shown below:

MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}=120.36 g/mol+7*18.02g/mol\\\\MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}=246.5g/mol

Thus, the percent water is:

\% H_2O=\frac{7*MM_{H_2O}}{MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}} *100\%\\\\

So we plug in to obtain:

\% H_2O=\frac{7*18.02}{246.5} *100\%\\\\\% H_2O=51.2\%

Best regards!
