You measure the strange insect in your yard and determine that it's 10 cm long. You want to share this new insect with other sci

entists. What is the advantage of using SI units instead of some other system of measure?
SI units allow scientists to communicate around the world using the same
system of measurement.

Scientists in the United States prefer Sl units and encourage other countries to
use them too.

SI units are easier for students in a science class to use because they can be
measured by a meter stick.

SI units are easier to use in scientific studies because most of them are multiples
or divisions of 10.

How many lone pairs are on the central atom in GeH4?
Step2247 [10]
It shouldn't have any lone pairs since it is a tetrahedral structure. Ge has 4 valence electrons. Each H has 1 valence electron. Therefore, each H valence electron will pair with each valence electron on Ge.

(a) What is the basis of the approximation that avoids using the quadratic formula to find an equilibrium concentration?
rusak2 [61]

The approximation is valid because  is very small.

Calculation of  concentration:

Since

0.85 M        0    0

(0.85-x)M    x      x

Now the value of x should be

x = 0.0000229

So based on this, the above concentration should be determined.

Now you will solve using the quadratic formula instead of iterations, to show that the same value of x is obtained either way. using the quadratic equation to calculate [h3o+] in 0.00250 m hno2, what are the values of a, b, c and x , where a, b, and c are the coefficients in the quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0, and x is [h3o+]? recall that ka=4.5×10−4 .

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

[H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M

As HNO₂ is a weak acid, its equilibrium in water is:

HNO₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)

Equilibrium constant, ka, is defined as:

ka = 4.5x10⁻⁴ = [H₃O⁺] [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂] (1)

Equilibrium concentration of each specie are:

[HNO₂] = 0.00250M - x

[H₃O⁺] = x

[NO₂⁻] = x

Replacing in (1):

4.5x10⁻⁴ = x × x / 0.00250M - x

1.125x10⁻⁶ - 4.5x10⁻⁴x = x²

0 = x² + 4.5x10⁻⁴x - 1.125x10⁻⁶

As the quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0

Coefficients are:

a: 1

b: 4.5x10⁻⁴

c: 1.125x10⁻⁶

Now, solving quadratic equation:

x = -0.0013 → False answer, there is no negative concentrations.

x = 0.000859

As [H₃O⁺] = x; [H₃O⁺] = 0.000859M

The heats of combustion of ethane (C2H6) and butane (C4H10) are 52 kJ/g and 49 kJ/g, respectively. We need to produce 1.000 x 10
LekaFEV [45]

Answer :

(1) The number of grams needed of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}) are 19.23 g and 20.41 g respectively.

(2) The number of moles of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}) are 0.641 moles and 0.352 moles respectively.

(3) The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of the fuels.

C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2}O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O

(4) The number of moles of CO_2 produced by burning each fuel is 1.28 mole and 1.41 mole respectively.

The fuel that emitting least amount of CO_2 is C_2H_6

Explanation :

<u>Part 1 :</u>

First we have to calculate the number of grams needed of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}).

As, 52 kJ energy required amount of C_2H_6 = 1 g

So, 1000 kJ energy required amount of C_2H_6 = \frac{1000}{52}=19.23g

and,

As, 49 kJ energy required amount of C_4H_{10} = 1 g

So, 1000 kJ energy required amount of C_4H_{10} = \frac{1000}{49}=20.41g

<u>Part 2 :</u>

Now we have to calculate the number of moles of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}).

Molar mass of C_2H_6 = 30 g/mole

Molar mass of C_4H_{10} = 58 g/mole

\text{ Moles of }C_2H_6=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_2H_6}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_2H_6}=\frac{19.23g}{30g/mole}=0.641moles

and,

\text{ Moles of }C_4H_{10}=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_4H_{10}}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_4H_{10}}=\frac{20.41g}{58g/mole}=0.352moles

<u>Part 3 :</u>

Now we have to write down the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of the fuels.

The balanced chemical reaction for combustion of C_2H_6 is:

C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

and,

The balanced chemical reaction for combustion of C_4H_{10} is:

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2}O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O

<u>Part 4 :</u>

Now we have to calculate the number of moles of CO_2 produced by burning each fuel to produce 1000 kJ.

C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

From this we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of C_2H_6 react to produce 2 moles of CO_2

As, 0.641 mole of C_2H_6 react to produce 0.641\times 2=1.28 moles of CO_2

and,

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2}O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O

From this we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of C_4H_{10} react to produce 4 moles of CO_2

As, 0.352 mole of C_4H_{10} react to produce 0.352\times 4=1.41 moles of CO_2

So, the fuel that emitting least amount of CO_2 is C_2H_6
