Calculate the mass of H2OH2O produced by metabolism of 1.6 kgkg of fat, assuming the fat consists entirely of tristearin (C57H11

0O6C57H110O6), a typical animal fat, and assuming that during metabolism, tristearin reacts with O2O2 to form only CO2CO2 and H2OH2O.

Answer: 1779.8g of H2O

Explanation:

C57H110O6 + O2 —> CO2 + H20

To calculate the amount of water(H2O) produced by the reaction of 1.6Kg tristearin(C57H110O6) and O2, we must first balance the equation.

To do so, add 2 in front of C57H110O6, 163 in front of O2, 114 in front of CO2 and 110 in front of H2O i.e

2C57H110O6 + 163O2 —> 114CO2 + 110H20

Next, we have to calculate the mass of tristearin(C57H110O6) that reacted and the mass of water produced from the balanced equation. This can be done by:

MM of C57H110O6 = (57x12) + (110x1) + (6x16) = 684 + 110 + 96 = 890g/mol

Mass conc of C57H110O6 = 890 x 2 = 1780g

MM of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass conc of H2O = 110 x 18 = 1980g

Next, we will find the amount of water produced by 1.6Kg(i.e 1600g) of tristearin(C57H110O6). This is done by:

From the equation,

1780g of C57H110O6 produced 1980g of H2O.

Therefore 1600g of C57H110O6 will produce = (1600x1980)/1780 = 1779.8g of H2O

What is the molariity of a 50.0 mL aqueous solution containing 10.0 grams of hydrogen peroxide, H2O2?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

6 mol/L

Explanation:

You should know or have the equation to solve for Molarity which is;

M = n/v          (M: Molarity) (n: moles of solute) (v: Liters of solute)

You can start off differently but I would start by converting the mL to L. This is your "v" value.

50.0 mL/ 1000 mL = <em>0.05 L</em>

Now, you have to convert grams to moles in order to solve for molarity (M).

1.) On the periodic table find the molecular weights of H and O.

H= 1.01 g/mol         O= 16.00 g/mol

2.) Multiply them and then add them together to have their combined molecular weights. (You have to multiply by 2 because of their equation; H2O2).

2(1.01) + 2(16.00)= 34.02 g/mol

3.) Now, you're going to use the "picket fence method" or whichever your teacher taught you to convert from grams to moles. This will be your "n" value. (I cannot show it on here without it looking weird, so my sincere apologies.)

10.0 g/ 34.02 g = <em>0.2939 mol</em>

<em />

4.)You are now going to plug in your answers into the equation for Molarity.

M= 0.2939 mol / 0.05 L = <em>5.878 mol/L</em>

5.) I am sure your professor might be a stickler so for sig figs sake when you multiply or divide use the smallest amount of sig figs you see which is 1. Round 5.878 to 6 mol/L

Sorry this explanation is very long let me know if you need a better more written out explanation.
