<u>Answer:</u> The amount of water produced in the given reaction is 0.692x grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let us assume that the initial amount of acetylene gas given be 'x' grams. Now, to calculate the number of moles, we will use the formula:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}   ....(1)

Given mass of acetylene = x grams

Molar mass of acetylene = 26 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Number of moles of acetylene}=\frac{xg}{26g/mol}=\frac{x}{26}mol

The reaction of combustion of acetylene is given by the equation:

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of acetylene produces 2 moles of water.

So, \frac{x}{26} moles of acetylene will produce = \frac{2}{2}\times \frac{x}{26}=\frac{x}{26} moles of water.

Now, to calculate the amount of water produced, we use equation 1:

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Moles of water = \frac{x}{26}mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\frac{x}{26}mol=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{18g/mol}

\text{Mass of water}=\frac{x}{26}\times 18=0.692x grams

How many grams of H2O are in 34.2 grams of NAOH<br> Need ASAP
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

15.438g H2O

Explanation:

First you need to find the reaction equation:

2H2O+2Na=2NaOH + H2

Hydrogen is a diatomic molecule so it will have a subscript of 2 on the right hand side. From there we can balance the reaction.    

Then we can use stoichiometry:

34.2g NaOH * (1 mol NaOH/39.908g NaOH) * (2 mol H2O/2 mol NaOH) * (18.015g H2O/1 mol H20) = 15.438g H2O

It is important that when you use stoichiometry that all your units cancel out until you only have the unit you want.

It is important to understand that while the absorbance value is related to the amount of light absorbed by a sample, it is not
Trava [24]

When 100 photons of light pass through a sample and 64 photons are detected after the passage of light, the number of photons transmitted through the sample is 64.

This is based on the methods of calculating the absorbance of light, which is depicted as the higher the amount of light transmission, the lower the amount of light absorbed.

Thus, when 64 photons of light in 100 photons are detected, 64 photons are transmitted, and therefore, the number of photons absorbed is 36.

Hence, hypothetically, if 100 photons of light are transmitted, 0 photons of light will be absorbed.

Therefore, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is 64 photos.
