The methane molecule undergoes oxidation and the carbon is oxidized to carbon dioxide and hydrogen to water.
In this reaction there is cleavage of four C-H bonds and two O=O bonds
there will be formation of two C=O bonds and four O-H bonds.
Overall due to more bond cleavage energy there will be evolution of energy. thus combustion is an exothermic reaction.
2.1648 kg of CH4 will generate 119341 KJ of energy.
Explanation:
Write down the values given in the question
CH4(g) +2 O2 → CO2(g) +2 H20 (g)
ΔH1 = - 802 kJ
2 H2O(g)→2 H2O(I)
ΔH2= -88 kJ
The overall chemical reaction is
CH4 (g)+2 O2(g)→CO2(g)+2 H2O (I) ΔH2= -890 kJ
CH4 +2 O2 → CO2 +2 H20
(1mol)+(2mol)→(1mol+2mol)
Methane (CH4) = 16 gm/mol
oxygen (O2) =32 gm/mol
Here 1 mol CH4 ang 2mol of O2 gives 1mol of CO2 and 2 mol of 2 H2O
which generate 882 KJ /mol
Therefore to produce 119341 KJ of energy
119341/882 = 135.3 mol
to produce 119341 KJ of energy, 135.3 mol of CH4 and 270.6 mol of O2 will require
=135.3 *16
=2164.8 gm
=2.1648 kg of CH4
2.1648 kg of CH4 will generate 119341 KJ of energy
Taking into account definition of percent yield, the percent yield for the reaction is 76.25%.
<h3>Percent yield</h3>
The percent yield is the ratio of the actual return to the theoretical return expressed as a percentage.
The percent yield is calculated as the experimental yield divided by the theoretical yield multiplied by 100%:

where the theoretical yield is the amount of product acquired through the complete conversion of all reagents in the final product, that is, it is the maximum amount of product that could be formed from the given amounts of reagents.
<h3>Percent yield in this case</h3>
In this case, you know:
- actual yield= 1.22 mol
- theorical yield= 1.60 mol
Replacing in the definition of percent yields:

Solving:
<u><em>percent yield= 76.25%</em></u>
Finally, the percent yield for the reaction is 76.25%.

<span>The answer is anions. Cations are positively-charged ions (in this case K+) while anions are negatively-charged ions (in this case Cl-). The ions attract each other through electrostatic charges and arrange themselves in an ordered fashion to form a lattice</span>
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
I chose this because it seems more reasonable . Because its in the air so im guess that its gravitational bc to stay on top of a hill you need balance . Im sorry if its wrong k . I tried .
