The rate of effusion of oxygen to an unknown gas is 0.935. what is the other gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

N2

Explanation:

Rate of effusion is defined by Graham's Law:  

(Rate 1/Rate 2) = (sqrt (M2)/ sqrt (M1))

(Where M is the molar mass of each substance. )

Molar Mass of oxygen, O2, is 32 (M1).

Rate of effusion of O2 to an unknown gas is .935(Rate 1).  

Rate 2 is unknown so put 1.

Solve for x (M2).

.935/1 = sqrt x/ sqrt32

.935 x sqrt 32 = sqrt x

5.29 = sq rt x

5.29^2 = 27.975 = 28  

N2 has a molar mass of 28 so it is the correct gas.

Answer:

The answer to your question is

                                        4C₇H₁₇  + 45 O₂    ⇒   28 CO₂   +  34H₂O  

Explanation:

Write the equation

                                        C₇H₁₇  +    O₂    ⇒    CO₂   +    H₂O  

Process

1.- Check if the equation is balanced

                                 Reactants            Element              Products

                                        7                          C                           1

                                       17                          H                          2

                                        2                          O                          3

As the number of reactants and products is different, we conclude that the reaction is unbalanced.

2.- Write a coefficient "7" to CO₂   and a coefficient of 17/2 to H₂O

                                      C₇H₁₇  +    O₂    ⇒   7CO₂   +  \frac{17}{2}H₂O  

                                 Reactants            Element              Products

                                        7                          C                           7

                                       17                          H                          17

                                        2                          O                          51/2

3.- Write a coefficient of 45/2 to the O₂, and multiply all the equation by 2.

                         4C₇H₁₇  + 45 O₂    ⇒   28 CO₂   +  34H₂O  

                  Reactants            Element              Products

                        28                          C                        28

                        68                          H                        68

                        90                          O                        90

Consider the reaction that occurs when copper is added to nitric acid. Upper C u (s) plus 4 upper H upper N upper O subscript 3
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Cu

Explanation:

In the given reaction of the addition of copper to nitric acid,

Cu(s) + 4HNO3(aq) -> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(l)

Cu or copper would be characterized as the reducing agent in this reaction. It is the chemical substance that is losing electrons and being oxidized due to this reduction/loss in this redox reaction as it is the metal that loses electrons by reacting with the non-metals.

Identify the property of the matter described below.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: C.

Explanation: Alcohol floats on oil and water sinks in oil. Water, alcohol, and oil layer well because of their densities, but also because the oil layer does not dissolve in either liquid. The oil keeps the water and alcohol separated so that they do not dissolve in one another. ... Water sinks because it is more dense than oil.
