Answer:

The minimum mass of octane that could be left over is 43.0 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of octane = 73.0 grams

Mass of oxygen = 105.0 grams

Molar mass octane = 114.23 g/mol

Molar mass oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles octane = 73.0 grams / 114.23 g/mol

Moles octane = 0.639 moles

Moles O2 = 105.0 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles O2 = 3.28 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 2 moles octane we need 25 moles O2 to produce 16 moles CO2 and 18 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed. (3.28 moles). There will react 3.28 / 12.5 = 0.2624 moles. There will remain 0.639 - 0.2624  = 0.3766 moles octane

Step 5: Calculate mass octane remaining

Mass octane = moles * molar mass

Mass octane = 0.3766 moles * 114.23 g/mol

Mass octane = 43.0 grams

The minimum mass of octane that could be left over is 43.0 grams

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

D. Hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs89

Explanation:

A DNA molecule is composed of two long polynucleotide chains made of four types of nucleotide subunits, two purines (adenine and guanine) and two pyrimidines (cytosine and thymine). These nucleotides are joined by covalent bonds forming a phosphate-sugar backbone. <em>These strands are held to one another with hydrogen bonds between the base portions of complementary nucleotides.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
