Ethanol, C2H6O, is most often blended with gasoline - usually as a 10 percent mix - to create a fuel called gasohol. Ethanol is

a renewable resource and ethanol-blended fuels, like gasohol, appear to burn more efficiently in combustion engines. The heat of combustion of ethanol is 326.7 kcal/mol. The heat of combustion of octane, C8H18, is 1.308×103 kcal/mol. How much energy is released during the complete combustion of 354 grams of octane ?

Answer:

4054 kcal of heat is released during complete combustion of 354 g of octane.

Explanation:

Heat of combustion of 1 mol of octane is 1.308\times 10^{3} kcal

Molar mass of octane = 114.23 g/mol

We know, no. of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

So, 1.308\times 10^{3} kcal of heat is released during complete combustion of 114.23 g of octane.

So, amount of heat is released during complete combustion of 354 g of octane = (\frac{1.308\times 10^{3}}{114.23})\times 354  kcal = 4054 kcal

Hence 4054 kcal of heat is released during complete combustion of 354 g of octane.

The electron-domain geometry of a sulfur-centered compound is trigonal bipyramidal. The hybridization of the central sulfur atom
VMariaS [17]

The hybridization state of the central sulfur atom is sp3d.

The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory describes the shape of molecules in terms of the number of electron pairs that surround the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

There are certain molecular shapes that are associated with certain hybridization states of the central atom. Since the central sulfur atom is trigonal bipyramidal, the hybridization state is sp3d.

5 Facts about cell division
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Cell division is the process by which a cell, called the parent cell, divides into two cells, called daughter cells.[1] When the cell divides, everything inside it divides also. The nucleus and the chromosomes divide, and the mitochondria divide also.

In mitosis, an ordinary body (somatic) cell divides to make two daughter cells.

In meiosis, a cell divides twice, to produce four gametes (sex cells). The first division of meiosis is a special kind of cell division called a reduction division because the number of chromosomes is halved. The second division of meiosis is similar to mitosis.[2]

Three types of cell division: left is binary fission as in bacteria; right are mitosis and meiosis as in eukaryotes.

Cells are the 'building blocks' of life, and cell division is a basic feature of life. For simple unicellular organisms like Amoebozoa, one cell division reproduces the entire organism. On a larger scale, cell division can create offspring from multicellular organisms, such as plants that grow from cuttings. But most importantly, cell division enables organisms that are able to sexually reproduce to develop from the one-celled fertilised egg (zygote). Cell division also allows for continual renewal and repair of the organism.

Calculate the mass in grams of carbon dioxide produced from 11.2 g of octane (C8H18) in the reaction above.
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

34.6g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Octane  = 11.2g

  Reaction expression;

      2C₈H₁₈  + 25O₂  →  16CO₂  + 18H₂O

Mass of octane = 11.2g

Unknown:

Mass of carbon dioxide produced  = ?

Solution:

From the balanced reaction equation;

         2 mole of octane produced 16 moles of carbon dioxide

From the given specie, let us find the number of moles;

    Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

 Molar mass of C₈H₁₈   = 8(12) + 18(1) = 114g/mole

Number of moles of octane  = \frac{11.2}{114}   = 0.098mole

   

    2 mole of octane produced 16 moles of carbon dioxide

    0.098 mole of octane will produce \frac{0.098 x 16}{2}   = 0.79mole of CO₂

Mass of CO₂ = number of moles x molar mass

           Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + 2(16)  = 44g/mol

Mass of CO₂  = 0.79 x 44  = 34.6g

When barium hydroxide is mixed with ammonium chloride, a fall in temperature is observed why? plz explain in detail
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Ammonium chloride has ammonium (NH4 +) part which is slightly acidic and Barium Hydroxide is a strong base.

You can see that an acid-base reaction will occur.

In this case :

Its highly endothermic reaction

Forms aqueous ammonia (mind that ammonia is highly water soluble gas so no effervesence) and Barium Chloride which is water soluble.

Ba(OH)2 +NH4Cl ——->BaCl2 + NH3 +H2O (unbalanced)

Two solid samples each contain sulfur, oxygen, and sodium, only. These samples have the same color, melting point, density, and
katovenus [111]
<span>The correct answer is 1. compound. There are three elements and not just one so it's not element. Mixtures wouldn't have the same properties that you described but these do so it's a compounds. Solution is not a solid thing but rather a liquid one. The two samples are therefore compounds.</span>
