Combustion is a chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant, oxygen, to give off combustion products and heat. Complete combustion results when all of the fuel is consumed to form carbon dioxide and water, as in the case of a hydrocarbon fuel. Incomplete combustion results when insufficient oxygen reacts with the fuel, forming soot and carbon monoxide.

The complete combustion of propane proceeds through the following reaction:
$C_{3} H_{8}$ + $5O_{2}$ --> $3CO_{2}$ + $4H_{2}O$

Combustion is an exothermic reaction, which means that it gives off heat as the reaction proceeds. For the complete combustion of propane, the heat of combustion is (-)2220 kJ/mole, where the minus sign indicates that the reaction is exothermic.

The molar mass of propane is 44.1 grams/mole. Using this value, the number of moles propane to be burned can be determined from the mass of propane given. Afterwards, this number of moles is multiplied by the heat of combustion to give the total heat produced from the reaction of the given mass of propane.

14.50 kg propane x 1000 g x 1 mole propane x 2220 kJ 
1 kg 44.1 g 1 mole

= 729,931.97 kJ

What is the value of DeltaG in a spontaneous reaction

krok68 [10]

Gibbs free energy of a reaction ( Δ G ) is the change in free energy of a system that undergoes the chemical reaction. It is the energy associated with the reaction, which is available to do some useful work. If ΔG<0 , then the reaction can be utilized to do some useful work. If ΔG>0 , then work has to be done on the system or external energy is required to make the reaction happen. ΔG=0 when the reaction is at equilibrium and there is no net change taking place in the system.

Distillation is a method that depends on differences in the boiling points of liquids to separate the components of a liquid mix

ryzh [129]

Explanation:

for immiscible liquids it is quite easy to separate and the separating funnel can be used but for miscible liquid they form a single entity and separating them is quite impossible if the differences in temperature is not considered,so in distillation the one with lower boiling point evaporates out living behind the one with high boiling point

Identify limiting and excess reagents when 25g of nitrogen reacts with 25g of hydrogen. How many grams of ammonia gas are formed

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Nitrogen is limiting reactant while hydrogen is in excess.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of N₂ = 25 g

Mass of H₂ = 25 g

Mass of ammonia formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

Number of moles of Nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 25 g/ 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.89 mol

Number of moles of hydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 25 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 12.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with ammonia.

H₂ ; NH₃

3 : 2

12.5 : 2/3×12.5 = 8.3

N₂ ; NH₃

1 : 2

0.89 : 2×0.89 = 1.78

The number of moles of ammonia produced by nitrogen are less thus nitrogen is limiting reactant while hydrogen is in excess.
