Balance the combustion reaction between octane and oxygen. 2C8H18 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

Chemistry

Explanation:

A balanced reaction is a reaction where there are equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side.

For example, 2C_{8}H_{18} + O_{2} \rightarrow CO_{2} + H_{2}O

Number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • C = 16
  • H = 36
  • O = 2

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • C = 1
  • H = 2
  • O = 3

Therefore, in order to balance the equation we multiply O_{2} by 25 on reactant side and multiply CO_{2} by 16 and H_{2}O by 18.

Thus, the balanced chemical equation will be as follows.

       2C_{8}H_{18} + 25O_{2} \rightarrow 16CO_{2} + 18H_{2}O

Zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the reaction equation Zn ( s ) + 2 HCl ( aq ) ⟶ ZnCl 2 ( aq ) + H 2 ( g ) How ma
REY [17]

Answer:

34.7mL

Explanation:

First we have to convert our grams of Zinc to moles of zinc so we can relate that number to our chemical equation.

So: 6.25g Zn x (1 mol / 65.39 g) = 0.0956 mol Zn

All that was done above was multiplying the grams of zinc by the reciprocal of zincs molar mass so our units would cancel and leave us with moles of zinc.

So now we need to go to HCl!

To do that we multiply by the molar coefficients in the chemical equation:

\frac{0.0956g Zn}{1 } (\frac{2 mol HCl}{1molZn})

This leaves us with 2(0.0956) = 0.1912 mol HCl

Now we use the relationship M= moles / volume , to calculate our volume

Rearranging we get that V = moles / M

Now we plug in: V = 0.1912 mol HCl / 5.50 M HCl

V= 0.0347 L

To change this to milliliters we multiply by 1000 so:

34.7 mL

jeyben [28]

Answer: through energy carriers, ATP and NADPH

Explanation:in the light dependent stage,energy from a light photon is used to create ATP through ADP and an inorganic phosphate.

It does this by the transfer of energetic electron from one electron carrier to another.NADPH is also formed.

In the light independent reaction,ATP and NADP are used to reduce carbon dioxide to 3-phosphoglycerate
