One mole of which hydrocarbon requires 8 mol o2 to achieve complete combustion to give carbon dioxide and water?

1 answer:

7 0

The typical structure of a hydrocarbon is HCnHnH where for every carbon atom, there's 2 hydrogen atoms plus a single hydrogen atom at each end of the hydrocarbon chain. So the expected output will be 1 CO2 molecule and 1 H2O molecule per carbon atom plus 1 extra H2O molecule. These molecules have to have a total of 16 oxygen atoms. So 2n + (n+1) = 16 where n = number of carbon atoms Solving for n gives 3n + 1 = 16 3n = 15 n = 5 So the equation should be: C5H7 + 8O2 ==> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Write an equation for the hydrogenation of glyceryl trilinolenate, a fat formed from glycerol and three linolenic acid molecules

Tomtit [17]

Balanced chemical equation for the hydrogenation of glyceryl trilinolenate:

C₅₇H₉₂O₆ + 9H₂ → C₅₇H₁₁₀O₆.

Linolenic acid (octadecatrienoic acids ) is a type of fatty acid. It has 18 carbon atoms chain and three double bonds. So trilinolenate has nine double bonds.

Trilinolenate is the form of triglyceride esters of linolenic acid.

Hydrogenation is addition of hydrogen atoms at both sides of a double bond.

Which of the following reactions could be an elementary reaction? 2 NO2(g) + F2(g) → 2NO2F(g) Rate = k[NO2][F2] H2(g) + Br2(g) →

podryga [215]

Answer: The correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Explanation:

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

For the given reactions:

Equation 1: $2NO_2(g)+F_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2F(g);Rate=k[NO_2][F_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 2 + 1 = 3

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 2: $H_2(g)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2HBr(g);Rate=k[H_2][Br_2]^{1/2}$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = $1+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

This is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 3: $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

This is considered as an elementary reaction.

Equation 4: $NO_2(g)+CO(g)\rightarrow NO(g)+CO_2(g);Rate=k[NO_2]^2$

Molecularity of the reaction = 1 + 1 = 2

Order of the reaction = 2 + 0 = 2

In this equation, the order with respect to each reactant is not equal to its stoichiometric coefficient which is represented in the balanced chemical reaction. Hence, this is not considered as an elementary reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is $NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g)+O(g);Rate=k[NO][O_2]$
