Fire is actually a chemical reaction. It's an oxidation reaction to be specific. When wood gets hot enough (the part of the wood that is burning) the large hydrocarbons break down to charred solids and a gas. The gas is what reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to produced light, CO2 and H2O.
Answer:
3.1 kg
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced combustion equation
C₈H₁₈ + 12.5 O₂ ⇒ 8 CO₂ + 9 H₂O
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 1.0 kg of C₈H₁₈.
The molar mass of C₈H₁₈ is 114.23 g/mol.
1.0 × 10³ g × 1 mol/114.23 g = 8.8 mol
Step 3: Calculate the moles of CO₂ produced from 8.8 moles of C₈H₁₈
The molar ratio of C₈H₁₈ to CO₂ is 1:8. The moles of CO₂ produced are 8/1 × 8.8 mol = 70 mol.
Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 70 moles of CO₂
The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol.
70 mol × 44.01 g/mol = 3.1 × 10³ g = 3.1 kg
Blank 1: nothing (to keep 2 total nitrogen)
blank 2: 3 (to make 6 total hydrogen)
blank 3: 2 (to make 2 total nitrogen and 6 total hydrogen)
hope this helps!! :)
then the electrons and protons would have a even amount of negetive electric charges
So 6.02*10^22 is avogadro constant, which is the amount of atoms in one mole. If you look Xenon up in the periodic table you will find it's mass given <span>131,293, which is grams per 1 mole.
