Answer:

Polystyrene

Explanation:

Polystyrene is synthetic hydrocarbon made up of styrene monomers.

It is water proof material.

It is chemically inert that's why can not break down by the reaction of acid and bases.

It is used for the production of disposable glass, cups, plated and other dinner ware.

It is also used in packing.

Polystyrene is light weighted because it consist of almost 98% air.

Polystyrene foams are used as insulating material in buildings.

Polystyrene foam is formed by using blowing agents.

It is non-biodegradable.

Its formula is (C₈H₈)ₙ.

Its density is 0.96- 1.05 g/cm³.

It is solid at room temperature and melt above 100°C but on cooling again it becomes rigid.

The oxidation of the sugar glucose, C6H12O6, is described by the following equation. C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g) → 6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l)
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

(a) 282 kJ

(b) 67.4 Calories

Explanation:

(a) The molar enthalpy, ΔH = −2802.5 kJ/mol, means that the heat produced by the reaction is 2802.5 kJ per mol of glucose.

We can multiply the enthalpy by the number of moles of glucose to get the heat produced by the metabolism. Grams of glucose will be converted to moles using the molar mass of glucose (180.156 g/mol):

(18.1 g)(mol/180.156g)(2802.5 kJ/mol) = 282 kJ

(b) Using the result we obtained above, kJ will be converted to Calories using the conversion factor of 4.184J = 1 cal. Calorie with a capital C is the same as a kilocalorie.

(282 kJ)(1 cal/4.184J) = 67.4 kcal = 67.4 Calories

Metal carbonates decompose to the metal oxide and CO2 on heating according to this general equation. Mx(CO3)is) → My(s) + yCO2(g
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

84.11 g/mol

Explanation:

A metal from group 2A will form the cation M²⁺, and the ion carbonate is CO₃²⁻, so the metal carbonate must be: MCO₃, and the reaction:

MCO₃(s) → MO(s) + CO₂(g)

For the stoichiometry of the reaction, 1 mol of MCO₃(s) will produce 1 mol of CO₂. Using the ideal gas law, it's possible to calculate the number of moles of CO₂:

PV = nRT , where P is the pressure, V is the volume(0.285 L), R is the gas constant (62.36 mmHg*L/mol*K), n is the number of moles, and T is the temperature (25 + 273 = 298 K).

69.8*0.285 = n*62.36*298

18583.28n = 19.893

n = 0.00107 mol

So, the number of moles of the metal carbonate is 0.00107. The molar mass is the mass divided by the number of moles:

0.0900/0.00107 = 84.11 g/mol
