Solid carbon reacts with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide gas.
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction:
Uranus. Its axis is tilted to almost 90 degrees.
<span>2.10 grams.
The balanced equation for the reaction is
CO + 2H2 ==> CH3OH
The key thing to take from this equation is that it takes 2 hydrogen molecules per carbon monoxide molecule for this reaction. And since we've been given an equal number of molecules for each reactant, the limiting reactant will be hydrogen.
We can effectively claim that we have 5.86/2 = 2.93 l of hydrogen and an excess of CO to consume all of the hydrogen. So the number of moles of hydrogen gas we have is:
2.93 l / 22.4 l/mol = 0.130803571 mol
And since it takes 2 moles of hydrogen gas to make 1 mole of methanol, divide by 2, getting.
0.130803571 mol / 2 = 0.065401786 mol
Now we just need to multiply the number of moles of methanol by its molar mass. First lookup the atomic weights involved.
Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 g/mol
Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 g/mol
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 g/mol
Molar mass CH3OH = 12.0107 + 4 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 32.04146 g/mol
So the mass produced is
32.04146 g/mol * 0.065401786 mol = 2.095568701 g
And of course, properly round the answer to 3 significant digits, giving 2.10 grams.</span>
Answer: option B. The kinetic energy of gas molecules is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature of the gas.
Explanation:
The kinetic theory of gases explains the behavior and properties of gases from a molecular perspective.
Specifically and explicity, the kinetic theory of gases states that gases are constituted by particles (molecules) and that the average kinetic energy of the particles is proportional to the absolute temperature (Kelvin scale) of the gas. Furthermore, the temperature of all the (ideal) gases is the same at a given temperature.
Hence, you know that the higher the temperature of the gas, the higher the kinetic energy and the average speed of the molecules.
Other postulates of the kinetic theory of gases are that: i) the volume of the particles is neglectible; ii) the particles do not exhibit intermolecular attraction or repulsion; iii) the particles are in continuous random motion in straight paths, until they collide with other particles or the walls of the vessel, and iv) the collisions are elastic (the energy is conserved).
