Answer:

Option c → 8:1

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

C₅H₁₂ + 8O₂ → 10CO₂ + 6H₂O

1 mol of pentane needs 8 moles of oxygen to be combusted and this combustion produces 10 mol of carbon dioxide and 6 moles of water.

To determine the ratio, look the stoichiometry.

For every 8 moles of oxygen, I need 1 mole of pentane gas.

zhuklara [117]

Explanation:

1.

Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaCl(aq) --> CuCl2(aq) + 2NaNO3(aq)

2.

Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaOH(aq) --> Cu(OH)2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

A light blue precipitate of Cu(OH)2 is formed and NaNO3 in solution.

3.

Cu(NO3)2(aq) --> Cu2+(aq) + 2NO3^-2(aq)

2NaOH(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)

Cu2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) --> Cu(OH)2(aq)

2Na+(aq) + 2NO3^-2(aq) --> 2NaNO3(aq)

4.

The reaction in both Questions 1 and 2 is called Double displacement reaction. A double-replacement reaction exchanges the cations and/or or the anions of two ionic compounds. A precipitation reaction is a double-replacement reaction in which one product is a solid precipitate (precipitated) while the other in solution.

Since the cation and anions in Qustion 1 were exchanged, the same was done for Question 2, hence the identity of the precipitate in Question 2 was got.
