The student should wear a lab coat that will protect the body from potential spilling of the substance, protective eyewear in case the compound will explode and latex gloves to have some protection against the chemicals which may burn the skin. Besides the respiratory mask, the heating should be carried out in a laboratory hood to prevent the inhalation of the toxic compound which may be released if the chemical will burn. After the heating is complete the beaker should be handled with wooden pliers because is very hot and so avoiding thermal burning.

Explanation:

A lab coat protects the student from any spillage of the chemicals on his body. Gloves should protect the student from getting the chemical on his hands as he works. Safety goggles also protect the eyes from any splatter than may be directed towards the eyes.

If the heating produces fumes he must heat the chemical near a window and with the mouth of the beaker facing away from him/her. A safety cabinet should be used if the fumes are considered harmful to inhale.

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kj of heat what mass of co2 is produced?

kari74 [83]

The heat of reaction (i.e. combustion) of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) when reacted with oxygen ( $O_{2}$ )  is -2658 kJ/mol butane, and the chemical reaction is given by:

$C_{4} H_{10}$ + $\frac{13}{2} O_{2}$ ---> $4 CO_{2}$ + $5 H_{2}O$

The mass of butane required in the reaction is based on the heat produced by the reaction, which is given to be -1,500 kJ. The minus sign is added because the reaction releases heat (exothermic), which means that the products are in a "lower energy state" than the reactants.

Dividing this with the heat of reaction per mole of butane reacted would give the number of moles butane required. Then, multiplying the answer with the molar mass of butane which is 58 grams/mole, will give the mass of butane required.

Moles of butane = [(-1,500 kJ)/(-2658 kJ/mol butane)]
Moles of butane = 0.5643 moles butane

Mass of butane  = 0.5643 moles butane * 58 grams/mol butane
Mass of butane = 32.73 grams butane

The mass of carbon dioxide ( $CO_{2}$ ) can be determined by multiplying the moles of butane ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) with the mole ratio of ( $CO_{2}$ ) produced to the ( $C_{4} H_{10}$ ) reacted, and then with the molar mass of ( $CO_{2}$ ), which is 44 grams/mole.

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 0.5643 moles butane * [4 moles $CO_{2}$ / 1 mole $C_{4} H_{10}$ ] * 44 grams/mole $CO_{2}$

Mass of carbon dioxide produced
= 99.32 grams $CO_{2}$

Thus, the mass of butane required is 32.73 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the reaction of this amount of butane is 99.32 grams.
