When methanol, CH 3 OH , is burned in the presence of oxygen gas, O 2 , a large amount of heat energy is released. For this reas

on, it is often used as a fuel in high performance racing cars. The combustion of methanol has the balanced, thermochemical equation CH 3 OH ( g ) + 3 2 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ CO 2 ( g ) + 2 H 2 O ( l ) Δ H = − 764 kJ How much methanol, in grams, must be burned to produce 581 kJ of heat?

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of methanol that must be burned is 24.34 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Amount of heat produced = 581 kJ

For the given chemical equation:

CH_3OH(g)+\frac{3}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l);\Delta H=-764kJ

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 764 kJ of heat is produced, the amount of methanol reacted is 1 mole

So, when 581 kJ of heat will be produced, the amount of methanol reacted will be = \frac{1}{764}\times 581=0.7605mol

To calculate mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of methanol = 0.7605 moles

Molar mass of methanol = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.7605mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methanol}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methanol}=(0.7605mol\times 32g/mol)=24.34g

Hence, the mass of methanol that must be burned is 24.34 grams

What are two observations you made from viewing the solar system model?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The two observations we made from viewing the solar system model are as follows as:

1). When we look at the sky we observe that the motions of all the planets and the stars are perfect circular movements with a good and high speed, but not in velocity because in velocity direction doesn't charges.

2). The sun is at the centre of our solar system and all the planets are equidistant to each other planets and also revolve around the sun.

Explain how the understanding of atomic emission spectrum led to development of the atomic theory? ( 4 points)
-Dominant- [34]
Well, all of this we owe it to Bohr who analyzed the atomic emission spectrum of hydrogen and he could probe matematically that it was a result of movement of e- from an especific energy level to a lower one. The understanding of levels of energy took to the development of the atomic theory
