Answer:

C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}(aq)+H_{2}O(aq)=4C_{2}H_{5}OH(aq)+4CO_{2}(g)

Explanation:

1. First write the formula of each compound:

Sucrose : C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}

Water : H_{2}O

Ethyl alcohol : C_{2}H_{5}OH

Carbon dioxide : CO_{2}

2. Write the equation with the reactants on the left and the products on the right:

C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}+H_{2}O=C_{2}H_{5}OH+CO_{2}

3. Put the states of matter of each compound in the reaction, as the problem says:

C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}(aq)+H_{2}O(aq)=C_{2}H_{5}OH(aq)+CO_{2}(g)

aq = aqueous solution

g =  gas

4. Balance each element.

The number of each atom must be the same on the left and on the right.

C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}(aq)+H_{2}O(aq)=4C_{2}H_{5}OH(aq)+4CO_{2}(g)

Does the model below represent a mixture or a substance ?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

substance

Explanation:

A mixture is when two or more <u>different</u> atoms/molecules are together, but not joined.

A substance is when the <u>same </u>atom/molecule is in a group together.

In this example, it is a substance because it is comprised of the same molecule not joined all together. If you wanted a mixture, other colored atoms/molecule (e.g. add green atoms) would change it to this property.

How many molecules of carbon dioxide, CO2, are present in 388.1 grams?
swat32

Answer:

53.11× 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of CO₂ = ?

Mass of CO₂ = 388.1 g

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12× 1 + 16×2

Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Now we will put the values in formula.

Number of moles = 388.1 g/ 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 8.82 moles

Now we will calculate the number of molecules by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

8.82 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules / 1 mol

53.11× 10²³ molecules
