Answer:

1) Write the balanced equation:

2C2H6 + 7O2 ---> 4CO2 + 6H2O

2) Determine limiting reagent:

C2H6 ⇒ 13.8 g / 30.0694 g/mol = 0.45894 mol

O2 ⇒ 45.8 g / 31.9988 g/mol = 1.4313 mol

C2H6 ⇒ 0.45894 / 2 = 0.22947

O2 ⇒ 1.4313 / 7 = 0.20447

Oxygen is limiting.

3) Determine theoretical yield of water:

The oxygen : water molar ratio is 7 : 6

7 is to 6 as 1.4313 mol is to x

x = 1.2268286 mol of water

4) Convert moles of water to grams:

1.2268286 mol times 18.015 g/mol = 22.1 g (to three sig figs)

Solution to (b):

14.2 g / 22.1 g = 64.2%

If you started with 35.0 grams of H2S and 40.0 grams of O2, how many grams of S8 would be produced, assuming 95 % yield? 8H2S(g)
Vesnalui [34]
Molar mass

H2S = 34.0 g/mol
O2 = 31.99 g/mol
S8 = 256.52 g/mol

Identifying excess reagent and the limiting of the reaction :

8 H2S(g) + 4 O2(g) = S8(I) +  8 H2O(g)

8 x 34 g H2S -------->  256. 52 g S8
35.0 g ----------------> ??

35.0 x 256.52 / 8 x 34 =

8978.2 / 272 => 33.00 g of S8  

H2S is  the  limiting reactant
---------------------------------------------

4 x 31.99 g O2 --------------- 256.52 g S8
40.0 g O2 --------------------- ??

40.0 x 256.52 / 4 x 31.99 =

10260.8 / 127.96 = 80.16 g of S8  

O2 is the excess reagent is the excess <span>reagent
</span>
------------------------------------------------------------

H2S is the limiting reactant, one that is fully consumed, it is he who determines the mass of S8 produced 

33.0 g ----------- 100%
?? g ------------- 95 %

95 x 33.00 / 100 => 31.35 g

hope this helps!

Butane gas is compressed and used as a liquid fuel in disposable cigarette lighters and lightweight camping stoves. Suppose a li
exis [7]

4.60 g of  of H₂O form when all the butane burns.

<h3>What is butane ?</h3>

One of the smallest liquid streams frequently created in a refinery is butane. Ten hydrogen atoms and four carbon atoms make up the butane molecule. Typically, butane is either marketed as a finished product or is blended into LPG or gasoline in tiny quantities.

It is frequently employed as a fuel for portable stoves and cigarette lighters, as a propellant in aerosols, as a heating fuel, as a refrigerant, and in the production of a broad variety of goods. Liquefied petroleum gas and butane both exist (LPG).

Butane has a low level of toxicity. In butane misuse, high exposure concentrations can be anticipated. Central nervous system (CNS) and cardiac consequences are the most frequently seen effects in cases of misuse.

Four modes of sediment transport are:
netineya [11]
Here is 5


Dissolved Load - elements dissolved in solution

Suspended Load - very fine grained sediment such as clay and silt carried in suspension. The size grains that can be carried in suspension are dependent on the current velocity

Wash Load - a subset of the suspension load, extremely small particles (clay) that will remain in suspension independent of turbulence in the river

Saltation Load - particles that are temporarily carried in suspension but move by bouncing along the bottom
 
<span>Bed Load - sediment that moves by rolling or sliding along the bottom. These are generally the coarser grained sediments such as sand and gravel.</span>
