A major component of gasoline is octane (C8H18). When liquid octane is burned in air it reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon

dioxide gas and water vapor.
Calculate the moles of water produced by the reaction of 1.00 mol of oxygen. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant figures.

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.4 moles of Oxygen

Explanation:

Data

Octane (C₈H₈)

Oxygen (O₂)

Carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Water (H₂O)

moles of water = ?

moles of Oxygen = 1

Balanced chemical reaction

                   C₈H₈  +10O₂  ⇒   8CO₂  +  4H₂O

              Reactant     Element     Products

                    8                 C                 8

                    8                 H                 8  

                   20                O               20  

Use proportions to solve this problem

                  10 moles of Oxygen ----------------- 4 moles of water

                    1 mol of Oxygen     ------------------ x

                    x = (4 x 1) / 10

                    x = 4 / 10

                    x = 0.4 moles of water

Iron(II) chloride is formed from the reaction between iron and copper(II) chloride. Fe + CuCl2 FeCl2 + Cu If the reactants have
elena55 [62]

Answer: see figure attached and explanation below.

Explanation:

1) Chemical equation (given):

Fe + CuCl₂ → Cu + FeCl₂

2) ΔHf reactants: -256 kJ/mol (given)

3) ΔHf products: - 321 kJ/mol (given)

4) ΔH reaction = ΔHf products - ΔHf reactants = - 321 kJ/mol - (- 256 kJ/mol) = - 65 kJ/mol

5) Conclusion:

i) Since ΔHf of products is less (more negative) than ΔHf of reactants, the reaction is exhotermic: the reaction released energy, which is the reason why the products content less potential energy than the reactants.

ii) Then, the energy diagram is the typical one of an exothermic reaction: the products start a certain potential energy level, the energy incrases until reaching the activation energy (the energy barrier to form the activated complex) and then energy decreases until a level below the energy of the reactants.

iii) See the attached figure with such kind of diagram showing the products at a lower level than the reactans

The activity series goes top to bottom, most active to least active elements, going: Li, K, Ba, Sr, Ca, Na, Mg, Mn, Zn, Fe, Cd, Co, Ni, Sn, Pb, H, Cu, Ag, Hg, Au. 

Thus, your list of metals would go from most reactive to least reactive: Li, K, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Au

Match the chemical with the statement that best describes the observed change in the rate of the reaction when the concentration
maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the amount of H2O2 is doubled while KI is kept constant, the rate of reaction doubles.

When the amount of KI is doubled and the amount of H2O2 is halved, the rate stays nearly constant.

2H2O2 (aq) → O2(g) + 2H2O (l) ------------- first order kinetics reaction.

Catalysts are KI, FeCl3 only, KCl is not a catalyst. Order: KI < MnO2 < Pb < FeCl3.

H2O2 + I– -> IO– + H2O (Step 1)

H2O2 + IO– -> I– + H2O + O2 (Step 2)

It can be seen that the iodine ion (provided by the KI solution) is a product as well as a reactant.

02(g)2Fe? (aq) + 2 H(a) 2 H 2 Fe3 (aq) H2O2(aq) + 2 Fe,Taq) H02(aq) 2 Fe (aq) 2 H (aq)
