The fossil could get damaged and broken into smaller pieces. That is a way it could make it difficult to determine the fossils age.
Answer:
1) When 69.9 g heptane is burned it releases 5.6 mol water.
2) C₇H₁₆ + 11O₂ → 7CO₂ + 8H₂O.
Explanation:
- Firstly, we should balance the equation of heptane combustion.
- The balanced equation is: <em>C₇H₁₆ + 11O₂ → 7CO₂ + 8H₂O.</em>
This means that every 1.0 mole of complete combustion of heptane will release 8 moles of H₂O.
- We need to calculate the no. of moles in 69.9 g of heptane that is burned using the relation: <em>n = mass/molar mass.</em>
n of 69.9 g of heptane = mass/molar mass = (69.9 g)/(100.21 g/mol) = 0.697 mol ≅ 0.7 mol.
<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>
1.0 mol of heptane releases → 8 moles of water.
0.7 mol of heptane releases → ??? moles of water.
<em>∴ The no. of moles of water that will be released from burning (69.9 g) of water</em> = (0.7 mol)(8.0 mol)/(1.0 mol) = <em>5.6 mol.</em>
<em>∴ When 69.9 g heptane is burned it releases </em><em>5.6</em><em> mol water. </em>
