An automobile gasoline tank holds 42 kg of gasoline. When the gasoline burns, 168 kg of oxygen are consumed and carbon dioxide a

nd water are produced. What total combined mass of carbon dioxide and water is produced?

Answer:

210 kg

Explanation:

The chemical reaction will look like this:

gasoline + O₂ (oxygen) → CO₂ (carbon dioxide) + H₂O (water) + heat

Now in chemical reactions the quantity of the reactants (gasoline + oxygen) is equal to the quantity of products (carbon dioxide + water), so from this principle we may determine:

combined mass of carbon dioxide and water produced = mass of gasoline + mass of oxygen

combined mass of carbon dioxide and water produced = 42 + 168  = 210 kg

A sample of water at 100°C is converted to steam after absorbing 820 kJ of heat. How grams of H2O are contained in the sample? A
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Since water is already at 100<span>°C all the energy is used to evaporate it. 
Now we can calculate how many </span>mols of water are evaporated with 820kJ.
N= \frac{820}{41} =20 mol
We calculated that we got 20 mols of water evaporated. Now, all we have to do is find how many grams is a mol of water. Molar mass of water is <span>20.16 g/mol.
</span>The final answer is:
m=20*20.16=403.2g

Please Explain. Why does salt water boil at a lower temperature than tap water?
nexus9112 [7]
We observe that heat capacity of salted water we will find that it is less than pure water. We now that it takes less energy to increase the temperature of the salt water 1°C than pure water. Which means that the salted water heats up faster and eventually reaches to its boiling point first.

What are the purposes of theories in science?
Leto [7]

Answer:

Scientific theories are testable and make falsifiable predictions. They describe the causes of a particular natural phenomenon and are used to explain and predict aspects of the physical universe or specific areas of inquiry (for example, electricity, chemistry, and astronomy).

A good theory in the theoretical sense is (1) consistent with empirical observations; is (2) precise, (3) parsimonious, (4) explanatorily broad, and (5) falsifiable; and (6) promotes scientific progress (among others; Table 1.1).
