The energy change if 84.0 g of CaO react with excess water is 98KJ of heat is released.

calculation
heat = number of moles x delta H

delta H = - 65.2 Kj/mol

first find the number of moles of CaO reacted

moles = mass/molar mass
the molar mass of CaO = 40 + 16= 56 g/mol
mass = 84 g
moles therefore = 84 g/56 g/mol =1.5 moles

Heat is therefore = 1.5 moles x -65.2 = - 97.8 Kj = -98 Kj

since sign is negative the energy is released

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced net ionic equation.

Cl⁻(aq) + AgNO₃(ag) ⇒ AgCl(s) + NO₃⁻ (ag)

What kind of reaction is this?

a. acid-base. No, because the reactants are not acids and bases.

b. redox. No, because all the species have the same oxidation numbers in the reactants and the products

c. precipitation. Yes, because an insoluble compound (AgCl) is produced, which then precipitates.

When methanol, CH 3 OH , is burned in the presence of oxygen gas, O 2 , a large amount of heat energy is released. For this reas

luda_lava [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of methanol that must be burned is 24.34 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Amount of heat produced = 581 kJ

For the given chemical equation:

$CH_3OH(g)+\frac{3}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l);\Delta H=-764kJ$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 764 kJ of heat is produced, the amount of methanol reacted is 1 mole

So, when 581 kJ of heat will be produced, the amount of methanol reacted will be = $\frac{1}{764}\times 581=0.7605mol$

To calculate mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of methanol = 0.7605 moles

Molar mass of methanol = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.7605mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methanol}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methanol}=(0.7605mol\times 32g/mol)=24.34g$

Hence, the mass of methanol that must be burned is 24.34 grams
