Answer: 61 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles of octane}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{97g}{114g/mol}=0.85moles

\text{Number of moles of oxygen}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{150g}{32g/mol}=4.69moles

The chemical equation for the combustion of octane in oxygen follows the equation:

2C_8H_{18}+25O_2\rightarrow 16CO_2+18H_2O

By stoichiometry of the reaction;

25 moles of oxygen react with 2 moles of octane

4.69 moles of oxygen react with=\frac{2}{25}\times 4.69=0.37  moles of octane

Thus, oxygen is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and octane is the excess reagent.

25 moles of oxygen produce 18 moles of water

4.69 moles of oxygen produce=\frac{18}{25}\times 4.69=3.38  moles of water.

Mass of water produced=moles\times {\text{Molar mass}}=3.38\times 18g/mol=61g

The maximum mass of water that could be produced by the chemical reaction is 61 grams.

A monatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 1.00 atm expands adiabatically from an initial volume of 1.50 m3 to a final volume of 4.0
tamaranim1 [39]

The correct answer is 1atm.

<h3>What is Kinetic theory of gases?</h3>

A lot of the fundamental ideas of thermodynamics were established with the help of the kinetic theory of gases, a straightforward yet historically significant classical model of the thermodynamic behaviour of gases. According to the model, a gas is made up of numerous identical submicroscopic particles (atoms or molecules) that are all moving rapidly and randomly. It is considered that they are substantially smaller in size than the particle spacing on average. Random elastic collisions between the particles and with the container's walls occur between the particles. The simplest form of the model only takes into account the interactions within the ideal gas.

Why aren't descriptive investigations repeatable?
Bad White [126]
In descriptive investigations, we still haven't formed any hypothesis yet so we seek information by asking question.

It's not repeatable because repeating the questions over and over again without any clue about what we want to seek is completely waste of time.

Hope this helps xox :)

A piece of material with a mass of 755 g is heated to 84.5 c and added to 50 g of water at 5
lana [24]
Alright sorry you're getting the answer hours later, but i can help with this.
so you're looking for specific heat, the equation for it is <span>macaΔTa = - mbcbΔTb with object a and object b. that's mass of a times specific heat of a times final minus initial temperature of a equals -(mass of b times specific heat of b times final minus initial temperature of b)
</span>so putting in your values is, 755g * ca * (75 celsius - 84.5 celsius) = -(50g * cb * (75 celsius - 5 celsius))
well we know the specific heat of water is always 4180J/kg celsius, so put that in for cb
with a bit of simplification to the equation by doing everything on each side first you have, -7172.5 * ca = -14630000
divide both sides by -7172.5 so you can single out ca and you get, ca= 2039.74
add units for specific heat which are J/kg celsius and the specific heat of the material is 2039.74 J/kg celsius

Why is it important to conserve or save our energy resources?
earnstyle [38]

answer:

  • reducing energy use limits the number of carbon emissions in the environment
  • conserving energy produces a higher quality of life. Reduced emissions result in cleaner air quality
  • it helps create a healthier planet, or at least helps sustain the resources we already have
