Answer:

H_{comb}=-4406kJ/mol

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the enthalpy of combustion is understood as the energy released when one mole of fuel, in this case octene, is burned in the presence of oxygen and is computed with the enthalpies of formation of the fuel, carbon dioxide and water as shown below (oxygen is circumvented as it is a pure element):

H_{comb}=8*\Delta _fH_{CO_2}+5\Delta _fH_{H_2O}-\Delta _fH_{C_8H_{10}}

Thus, since we already know the enthalpy of combustion of the fuel, for carbon and water we have -393.5 and -241.8 kJ/mol respectively, thereby, the enthalpy of combustion turns out:

H_{comb}=8*(-393.5kJ/mol)+5(-241.8kJ/mol)-49.0kJ/mol\\\\H_{comb}=-4406kJ/mol

Best regards.

Breeder reactors are used to convert the nonfissionable nuclide U-238 to a fissionable product. Neutron capture by the U-238 is
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Pu-239

Explanation:

Beta decay moves the element which undergoes the decay one place to the right in the periodic table since to conserve charge and being beta radiations an  electron we convert a neutron into a proton and an electron. In neutron capture we increase the atomic mas by one unit. We that in mind, lets solve the question:

U-238 + ₁⁰ n ⇒ U-239 ⇒ Np -239 +  ₋₁⁰β ⇒ Pu-239 +  ₋₁⁰β

What is the Ka of a weak acid (HA) if the initial concentration of weak acid is 4.5 x 10-4 M and the pH is 6.87? (pick one)
rewona [7]

Answer:

Ka = 4.04 \times 10^{-11}

Explanation:

Initial concentration of weak acid = 4.5 \times 10^{-4}\ M

pH = 6.87

pH = -log[H^+]

[H^+]=10^{-pH}

[H^+]=10^{-6.87}=1.35 \times 10^{-7}\ M

HA dissociated as:

HA \leftrightharpoons H^+ + A^{-}

(0.00045 - x)    x     x

[HA] at equilibrium = (0.00045 - x) M

x = 1.35 \times 10^{-7}\ M

Ka = \frac{[H^+][A^{-}]}{[HA]}

Ka = \frac{(1.35 \times 10^{-7})^2}{0.00045 - 0.000000135}

0.000000135 <<< 0.00045

Therefore, Ka = \frac{(1.35 \times 10^{-7})^2}{0.00045 } = 4.04 \times 10^{-11}

If a little old lady is doing 98.3 kilometers/hour, will she get a speeding ticket if the speed limit is 55 miles / hour? [USE:
shutvik [7]

Answer:

It is possible she could get one.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to convert 98.3 kilometers/hour to miles/hour.

In other words, we <u>convert km to mi</u>, to do so we multiply 98.3 km by a <em>conversion factor</em>, putting the unit we want to have in the numerator, and the unit we want to convert in the denominator:

  • 98.3 km * \frac{1000m}{1km} *\frac{100cm}{1m}*\frac{1in}{2.54cm} *\frac{1ft}{12in} *\frac{1mi}{5280ft} = 61 mi

Given that the little old lady is doing 61 miles/hour, she could get a speeding ticket.
