In the "Méthode Champenoise," grape juice is fermented in a wine bottle to produce sparkling wine. The reaction is the following

. C6H12O6(aq) → 2 C2H5OH(aq) + 2 CO2(g) Fermentation of 754 mL of grape juice (density = 1.0 g/cm3) is allowed to take place in a bottle with a total volume of 840. mL until 13% by volume is ethanol (C2H5OH). Assuming that the CO2 is insoluble in H2O (actually a wrong assumption), what would be the pressure of CO2 inside the wine bottle at 21°C? (The density of ethanol is 0.79 g/cm3.) WebAssign will check your answer for the correct number of significant figures. atm

Answer:

The pressure inside the wine bottle at 21 °C is 4.8 · 10² atm

Explanation:

Hi there!

We know that 1 mol of CO₂ is produced per mol of produced ethanol.

If the final concentration of ethanol is 13%, let´s calculate how many moles of ethanol are present at that concentration.

A concentration of 13% means that in 100 ml of solution, 13 ml is dissolved ethanol. We have 754 ml of solution, then, the volume of ethanol will be:

754 ml solution · (13 ml ethanol/100 ml solution) = 98 ml ethanol

With the density, we can calculate the mass of ethanol present:

density = mass/ volume

0.79 g/ml = mass / 98 ml

mass = 0.79 g/ml · 98 ml

mass = 77 g

The molar mass of ethanol is 46.07 g/mol, then 77 g of ethanol is equal to:

77 g · (1 mol/46.07 g) = 1.7 mol

Then, the number of moles of CO₂ produced will be 1.7 mol.

Using the equation of the ideal gas law, we can calculate the pressure of CO₂:

P = nRT/V

Where:

P = pressure

n = number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

T = temperature

V = volume

The volume will be the headspace of the bottle (840 ml - 754 ml) 86 ml = 0.086 l.

The temperature in kelvin will be: 21 + 273 = 294 K

The gas constant is 0.082 l atm / K mol

Then:

P = (1.7 mol · 0.082 l atm/K mol · 294 K)/ 0.086 l

P = 4.8 · 10² atm

The pressure inside the wine bottle at 21 °C is 4.8 · 10² atm

In your own words, explain if you agree or disagree with this statement: "Nuclear energy is the cleanest
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

nuclear energy is the cleanest and safest energy source we have available and i agree with this statement for following reasons:

1.  Nuclear power is generated by a controlled chain reaction involving the splitting of atoms. A modern nuclear power plant uses the intense heat created by this reaction to heat water and create steam, which turns a turbine and generates electricity. Whereas a coal-fired plant heats water by burning coal, a nuclear plant heats it by splitting atoms. This process is called nuclear fission.

2. Nuclear fission, in simple terms, occurs when an atom splits in two, releasing a massive amount of energy and several subatomic particles called neutrons. These neutrons, in turn, hit and split other atoms, beginning and sustaining the chain reaction. Reactor operators control this reaction in a variety of ways and thus regulate the amount of heat generated and energy produced.

3. The raw fuel for this process is the metal uranium, which must be enriched before it can be used for producing energy in commercial reactors. Enrichment is necessary because mined uranium ore is around 99.3 percent uranium-238, which, in today’s commercial power plants, does not readily split upon exposure to neutrons from the fission chain reaction, and thus makes poor fuel. The other 0.7 percent of mined uranium is uranium-235, which makes excellent fuel. The number refers to the atomic mass, or the total mass of protons and neutrons that make up the atomic nucleus. This difference in mass of the same element makes them two different isotopes of uranium. The enrichment process consists essentially of increasing the percentage of uranium-235 by decreasing the percentage (via removal) of uranium-238.
