Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{528.7 g} }

Explanation:

It often helps to write the heat as if it were a reactant or a product in the thermochemical equation.

Then you can consider it to be 11018 "moles" of "kJ"  

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

M_r:                      32.00

              2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ⟶ 16CO₂ + 8H₂O + 11 018 kJ

n/mol:                                                                  7280

1. Moles of O₂

The molar ratio is 25 mol O₂:11 018 kJ

\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{7280 kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{25 mol O}_{2}}{\text{11 018 kJ}} = \text{16.52 mol O}_{2}

2. Mass of O₂

\text{Mass of C$_{8}$H}_{18} = \text{16.52 mol O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \textbf{528.6 g O}_{2}\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{528.67 g O}_{2}}$}

If 4.0 g of helium gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at 0 o C and a pressure of 1.0 atm, what volume does 3.0 g of He occupy under
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

the volume occupied by 3.0 g of the gas is 16.8 L.

Explanation:

Given;

initial reacting mass of the helium gas, m₁ = 4.0 g

volume occupied by the helium gas, V = 22.4 L

pressure of the gas, P = 1 .0 atm

temperature of the gas, T = 0⁰C = 273 K

atomic mass of helium gas, M = 4.0 g/mol

initial number of moles of the gas is calculated as follows;

n_1 = \frac{m_1}{M} \\\\n_1 = \frac{4}{4} = 1

The number of moles of the gas when the reacting mass is 3.0 g;

m₂ = 3.0 g

n_2 = \frac{m_2}{M} \\\\n_2 = \frac{3}{4} \\\\n_2 = 0.75 \ mol

The volume of the gas at 0.75 mol is determined using ideal gas law;

PV = nRT

PV = nRT\\\\\frac{V}{n} = \frac{RT}{P} \\\\since, \ \frac{RT}{P} \ is \ constant,\  then;\\\frac{V_1}{n_1} = \frac{V_2}{n_2} \\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1n_2}{n_1} \\\\V_2 = \frac{22.4 \times 0.75}{1} \\\\V_2 = 16.8 \ L

Therefore, the volume occupied by 3.0 g of the gas is 16.8 L.

A sample of an ionic compound NaA, where A- is the anion of a
vitfil [10]

Answer:

a) Kb = 10^-9

b) pH = 3.02

Explanation:

a) pH 5.0 titration with a 100 mL sample containing 500 mL of 0.10 M HCl, or 0.05 moles of HCl. Therefore we have the following:

[NaA] and [A-] = 0.05/0.6 = 0.083 M

Kb = Kw/Ka = 10^-14/[H+] = 10^-14/10^-5 = 10^-9

b) For the stoichiometric point in the titration, 0.100 moles of NaA have to be found in a 1.1L solution, and this is equal to:

[A-] = [H+] = (0.1 L)*(1 M)/1.1 L = 0.091 M

pKb = 10^-9

Ka = 10^-5

HA = H+ + A-

Ka = 10^-5 = ([H+]*[A-])/[HA] = [H+]^2/(0.091 - [H+])

[H+]^2 + 10^5 * [H+] - 10^-5 * 0.091 = 0

Clearing [H+]:

[H+] = 0.00095 M

pH = -log([H+]) = -log(0.00095) = 3.02
