A small helium tank measures about two feet high. Yet it can fill over 50 balloons! How can such a small tank contain enough hel

It will only take a small amount of helium when inflating balloons. For example, an 11" balloon only needs 0.015 m3 of helium. So it make sense, why a two feet helium tank can inflate at about 50 balloons. Also, the size tank (2 ft. high) does not define the capacity of helium it contains.

Which identifies an oxidation-reduction reaction?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄  →  Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is  also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized

A graduated cylinder is filled 25.0 mL with water and a piece of granite is placed in the cylinder, displacing the level to 37.2
kvv77 [185]

The volume  of the granite piece  in Cm³  is 12.2 cm³

 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

volume of granite = (volume of cylinder after placing granite - volume  of  cylinder  before  placing  granite

 = 37.2 ml - 25.0 ml = 12.2 ml


convert ml  to Cm³

that is 1 ml = 1 cm³

       12.2 ml =  ? cm³

<em>by cross  multiplication</em>

=(12.2 ml x 1 cm³) / 1 ml = 12.2 cm³

Butane (C4 H10(g), Hf = –125.6 kJ/mol) reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2 , Hf = –393.5 kJ/mol ) and water (H2 O,
WITCHER [35]

Answer: Enthalpy of combustion (per mole) of C_4H_{10} (g) is -2657.5 kJ

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of butane follows:

2C_4H_{10}(g)+4O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(8\times \Delta H^o_f_{CO_2(g)})+(10\times \Delta H^o_f_{H_2O(g)})]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{C_4H_{10}(g)})+(4\times \Delta H^o_f_{O_2(g)})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(C_4H_{10}(g))}=-125.6kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.82kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-393.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(8\times -393.5)+(10\times -241.82)]-[(2\times -125.6)+(4\times 0)]\\\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-5315kJ

Enthalpy of combustion (per mole) of C_4H_{10} (g) is -2657.5 kJ
