The answer is C) Nuclear.

The answer is C because, Renewable resources are something that can be re-used over and over again. Then Nonrenewable resources can't be made right away once it's been used. That being said, the answer is C.

A) Geothermal can be reused, which makes it renewable.

B) Solar can also be reused, which makes it renewable.

C) Nuclear can NOT be reused, which makes it nonrenewable.

D) Biomas is indeed renewable.

First, we need to calculate how much energy we will get from this combustion.

Assuming the combustion is complete, we have the octane reacting with O₂ to form only water and CO₂, so:

$C_8H_{18}+O_2\to CO_2+H_2O$

We need to balance the reaction. Carbon only appear on two parts, so, we can start by it:

$C_8H_{18}+O_2\to8CO_2+H_2O$

Now, we balance the hydrogen:

$C_8H_{18}+O_2\to8CO_2+9H_2O$

And in the end, the oxygen:

$C_8H_{18}+\frac{25}{2}O_2\to8CO_2+9H_2O$

We can multiply all coefficients by 2 to get integer ones:

$2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\to16CO_2+18H_2O$

Now, we need to use the enthalpies of formation to get the enthalpy of reaction of this reaction.

The enthalpy of reaction can be calculated by adding the enthalpies of formation of the products multiplied by their stoichiometric coefficients and substracting the sum of enthalpies of formation of the reactants multiplied by their stoichiometric coefficients.

For the reactants, we have (the enthalpy of formation of pure compounds is zero, which is the case for O₂):

$\begin{gathered} \Delta H\mleft\lbrace reactants\mright\rbrace=2\cdot\Delta H\mleft\lbrace C_8H_{18}\mright\rbrace+25\cdot\Delta H\mleft\lbrace O_2\mright\rbrace \\ \Delta H\lbrace reactants\rbrace=2\cdot(-250.1kJ)+25\cdot0kJ \\ \Delta H\lbrace reactants\rbrace=-500.2kJ+0kJ \\ \Delta H\lbrace reactants\rbrace=-500.2kJ \end{gathered}$

For the products, we have:

$\begin{gathered} \Delta H_{}\mleft\lbrace product\mright\rbrace=16\cdot\Delta H\lbrace CO_2\rbrace+18\cdot\Delta H\lbrace H_2O\rbrace \\ \Delta H_{}\lbrace product\rbrace=16\cdot(-393.5kJ)+18\cdot(-285.5kJ) \\ \Delta H_{}\lbrace product\rbrace=-6296kJ-5139kJ \\ \Delta H_{}\lbrace product\rbrace=-11435kJ \end{gathered}$

Now, we substract the rectants from the produtcs:

$\begin{gathered} \Delta H_r=\Delta H_{}\lbrace product\rbrace-\Delta H\lbrace reactants\rbrace \\ \Delta H_r=-11435kJ-(-500.2kJ) \\ \Delta H_r=-10934.8kJ \end{gathered}$

Now, this enthalpy of reaction is for 2 moles of C₈H₁₈, so for 1 mol of C₈H₁₈ we have half this value:

$\Delta H_c=\frac{1}{2}\Delta H_r=\frac{1}{2}\cdot(-10934.8kJ)=-5467.4kJ$

Now, we have 100 g of C₈H₁₈, and its molar weight is approximately 114.22852 g/mol, so the number of moles in 100 g of C₈H₁₈ is:

$\begin{gathered} M_{C_8H_{18}}=\frac{m_{C_8H_{18}}}{n_{C_8H_{18}}} \\ n_{C_8H_{18}}=\frac{m_{C_8H_{18}}}{M_{C_8H_{18}}}=\frac{100g}{114.22852g/mol}\approx0.875438mol \end{gathered}$

Since we have approximately 0.875438 mol, and 1 mol releases -5467.4kJ when combusted, we have:

$Q=-5467.4kJ/mol\cdot0.875438mol\approx-4786.37kJ$

Now, for the other part, we need to calculate how much heat it is necessary to melt a mass, <em>m</em>.

First, we have to heat the ice to 0 °C, so:

$\begin{gathered} Q_1=m\cdot2.010J/g.\degree C\cdot(0-(-10))\degree C \\ Q_1=m\cdot2.010J/g\cdot10 \\ Q_1=m\cdot20.10J/g \end{gathered}$

Then, we need to melt all this mass, so we use the latent heat now:

$Q_2=n\cdot6.03kJ/mol$

Converting mass to number of moles of water we have:

$\begin{gathered} M=\frac{m}{n} \\ n=\frac{m}{M}=\frac{m}{18.01528g/mol} \end{gathered}$

So:

$Q_2=\frac{m}{18.01528g/mol}_{}\cdot6.03kJ/mol\approx m\cdot0.334716kJ/g$

Adding them, we have a total heat of:

$\begin{gathered} Q_T=m\cdot20.10J/g+m\cdot0.334716kJ/g \\ Q_T=m\cdot0.02010kJ/g+m\cdot0.334716kJ/g \\ Q_T=m\cdot0.354816kJ/g \end{gathered}$

Since we have a heat of 4786.37 kJ form the combustion, we input that to get the mass (the negative sign is removed because it only means that the heat is released from the reaction, but now it is absorbed by the ice):

$\begin{gathered} 4786.37kJ=m\cdot0.354816kJ/g \\ m=\frac{4786.37kJ}{0.354816kJ/g}\approx13489g\approx13.5\operatorname{kg} \end{gathered}$

Since we have a total of 20kg of ice, we can clculate the percent using it:

$P=\frac{13.5\operatorname{kg}}{20\operatorname{kg}}=0.675=67.5\%$

Be sure to answer all parts. Calculate the pH during the titration of 30.00 mL of 0.1000 M KOH with 0.1000 M HBr solution after

Fantom [35]

Answer:

(a) pH = 12.73

(b) pH = 10.52

Explanation:

The net balanced reaction equation is:

KOH + HBr ⇒ H₂O + KBr

The amount of KOH present is:

n = CV = (0.1000 molL⁻¹)(30.00 mL) = 3.000 mmol

(a) The amount of HBr added in 9.00 mL of 0.1000 M HBr is:

(0.1000 molL⁻¹)(9.00 mL) = 0.900 mmol

This amount of HBr will neutralize an equivalent amount of KOH (0.900 mmol), leaving the following amount of KOH:

(3.000 mmol) - (0.900 mmol) = 2.100 mmol KOH

After the addition of HBr, the volume of the KOH solution is 39.00 mL. The concentration of KOH is calculated as follows:

C = n/V = (2.100 mmol) / (39.00 mL) = 0.0538461 M KOH

The pOH and pH of the solution can then be calculated:

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.0538461) = 1.2688

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.2688 = 12.73

(b) The amount of HBr added in 29.80 mL of 0.1000 M HBr is:

(0.1000 molL⁻¹)(29.80 mL) = 2.980 mmol

This amount of HBr will neutralize an equivalent amount of KOH, leaving the following amount of KOH:

(3.000 mmol) - (2.980 mmol) = 0.0200 mmol KOH

After the addition of HBr, the volume of the KOH solution is 59.80 mL. The concentration of KOH is calculated as follows:

C = n/V = (0.0200 mmol) / (59.80 mL) = 0.0003344 M KOH

The pOH and pH of the solution can then be calculated:

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.0003344) = 3.476

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 3.476 = 10.52

(0.1000 molL⁻¹)(38.00 mL) = 3.800 mmol

This amount of HBr will neutralize all of the KOH present. The amount of HBr in excess is:

(3.800 mmol) - (3.000 mmol) = 0.800 mmol HBr

After the addition of HBr, the volume of the analyte solution is 68.00 mL. The concentration of HBr is calculated as follows:

C = n/V = (0.800 mmol) / (68.00 mL) = 0.01176 M HBr

The pH of the solution can then be calculated:

pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(0.01176) = 1.93

0.415 g of an unknown triprotic acid are used to make a 100.00 mL solution. Then 25.00 mL of this solution is transferred to an

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial burette reading = 1.81 mL

final burette reading = 39.7 mL

volume of NaOH used = 39.7 - 1.81 = 37.89 mL .

37.89 mL of .1029 M NaOH is used to neutralise triprotic acid

No of moles contained by 37.89 mL of .1029 M NaOH

= .03789 x .1029 moles

= 3.89 x 10⁻³ moles

Since acid is triprotic , its equivalent weight = molecular weight / 3

No of moles of triprotic acid = 3.89 x 10⁻³ / 3

= 1.30 x 10⁻³ moles .
