Propane is often used to heat homes. The combustion of propane follows the following reaction: C3H8(g) + 5O2(g)  3CO2 (g) + 4H

2O(g), ΔH° = –2044 kJ. How many grams of propane must be reacted by this reaction to release 7563 kJ of heat?

Answer:

To release 7563 kJ of heat, we need to burn 163.17 grams of propane

Explanation:

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

C3H8 + 5O2 -----------> 3CO2 + 4H2O      ΔH° = –2044 kJ

This means every mole C3H8

Every mole of C3H8 produces 2044 kJ of heat when it burns (ΔH° is negative because it's an exothermic reaction)

<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the number of moles to produce 7563 kJ of heat

1 mol = 2044 kJ

x mol = 7563 kJ

x = 7563/2044 =  3.70 moles

To produce 7563 kJ of heat we have to burn 3.70 moles of C3H8

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate mass of propane

Mass propane = moles * Molar mass

Mass propane = 3.70 moles * 44.1 g/mol

Mass propane = 163.17 grams

To release 7563 kJ of heat, we need to burn 163.17 grams of propane

If you measure the mass of a liquid is 11.50 g and its volume as 9.03 ml how many significant figures should its density value h
MAXImum [283]

To get a result with the best degree of precision, the number of significant figures should be equal to the smallest number of significant figures of the given numbers. In this case, the smallest is 3 as given by the number 9.03 mL.

Therefore density is:

<span>11.50 g / 9.03 mL = 1.27 g/mL</span>

The solubility product for barium sulfate is 1.1 × 10–10. calculate the molar solubility of barium sulfate.
Triss [41]
When it comes to equilibrium reactions in chemistry, there are a lot of equilibrium constants that can be used. In the case of solubility, the appropriate one to use is the equilibrium constant of solubility product denotes as Ksp. This is the concentration of products raised to their coefficients. For example,

 cC ⇔ aA + bB 

Ksp = {[A^a][B^b]}

Now, for the this problem, the reaction is

BaSO₄ ⇔ Ba²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

The reaction is already balanced. Since we don't know the value of Ba²⁺ and SO₄²⁻, let's denote this at x.

1.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ = [x][x] =[x²]
[x] = [Ba²⁺] = [SO₄²⁻] = [BaSO₄] = 1.049 × 10⁻⁵ M
