Which statement best describes John Dalton’s use of creativity in his work?

1 answer:

6 0

The scientist thought that the atom was the smallest particle in the universe is John Dalton. He established the atomic theory which consists of five; elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms, atoms of different element have different sizes, mass and physic – chemical properties, atoms cannot be divided further, destroyed or created, atoms can combine to form compounds and in chemical reaction, atoms can be combined, separated or rearranged

Combustion of hydrocarbons such as undecane (C_11H_24) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Eart

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Volume of carbon dioxide is 428.23 L.

Explanation:

Below is the chemical reaction or chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbons such as undecane into carbon dioxide.

$C_{11}H_{24}(l) + 17O_{2}(g) \to 11CO_{2} (g) + 12H_2O(g)$

Here, undecane is in liquid form that reacts with gaseous oxygen (combustion) and produces carbon dioxide and water as a product in the gaseous form.

The molar mass of undecane = $156.31 g/mol.$

$\text{Number of moles} = \frac{260g}{156.31g/mol} = 1.66 \ mol.$

From the equation, it can be seen that 1 mole of undecane produces 11 moles of carbon dioxide. Therefore, 1.66 mol will produce 18.26 mol of carbon dioxide.

Now find the volume of 18.26 mol of carbon dioxide when the temperature is 13 degrees Celsius and pressure is 1 atm.

$V = \frac{nRT}{P} \\$

$V = \frac{18.26 \times 0.082 \times 286 \ K}{1atm} \\$

$V = 428.23 \ L$

What assumptions do we make in order to use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation? a. Both the weak acid and its conjugate base are

zepelin [54]

Answer:

The final and initial concentration of the acid and it's conjugate base are approximately equal, that is we use the weak acid approximation.

Explanation:

The Henderson-Hasselbalch is used to calculate the pH of a buffer solution. It depends on the weak acid approximation.

Since the weak acid ionizes only to a small extent, then we can say that [HA] ≈ [HA]i

Where [HA] = final concentration of the acid and [HA]i = initial concentration of the acid.

It also follows that [A^-] ≈ [A^-]i where [A^-] and[A^-]i refer to final and initial concentrations of the conjugate base hence the answer above.
