How much heat in kj is released by burning 9.5 grams of methane?

Methane is the compound CH4, and burning it uses the reaction:

CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O, which is rather exothermic. To find the heat released by burning a certain amount of the substance, you should look at the bond enthalpy of each compound, and then compare the values before and after the reaction. In methane, there are 4 C-H bonds, which have bond energy of 416 kj/mol, resulting in a total bond energy of 1664 kj/mol. O2 is 494 kj/mol. Therefore we have a total of 2080 kj/mol on the left side. On the right side we have CO2, which has 2 C=O bonds, each at 799 kj/mol each, resulting in 1598 kj/mol, and H2O has 2 O-H bonds, at 459kj/mol each, resulting in a total of 2516 kj/mol on the right hand side. Now, this may be confusing because the left hand side seems to have less heat than the right, but you just need to remember: making minus breaking, which results in a total change of 436kj/mol heat evolved.

Now it is a simple matter of find the mols of CH4 reacted, using n=m/mr.

n = 9.5/16.042 = 0.592195 mol

Therefore, if we reacted 0.592195 mol, and we produced 436 kj for one mol, the total amount of energy evolved was 436*<span>0.592195 kj, or 258.197 kj.</span>

Answer:

All of these compounds are made from the element copper. Copper Acetates, Cuprous Oxide, Cupric Oxide (otherwise know as black copper oxide), Cupric Chloride, Copper Oxychloride, Cuprous Chloride, Cupric Nitrate, Copper Cyanide.

Explanation:

Copper is considered an element. You can use copper for Jewelry, Table Tops, Sinks, Dark Chocolate, Leafy Greens, Lobster, Nuts and Seeds, Mushrooms, Oysters, Liver and etc other nutrience. Copper is an easily molded base metal that is often added to precious metals to improve their elasticity, flexibility, hardness, colour, and resistance to corrosion.

A gas has a pressure of 0.470 atm at 60.0 C. What is the pressure at standard temperature?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

P2=0.385atm

Explanation:

step one:

Given that the temperature T1=  60 Celcius

we can convert this to kelvin by adding 273k to 60 Celcius

we have T1= 333k

pressure P1= 0.470 atm

step two:

we know that the standard temperature is T2= 273K

Applying the temperature and pressure relationship we have

P1/T1=P2/T2

substituting our given data we have

0.47/333=P2/273

cross multiply we have

P2= (0.47*273)/333

P2= 128.31/333

P2=0.385 atm
