Let's begin with the basic values that will be used in the solution.
The formula of propane is C3H8. It is an alkane, a hydrocarbon with the general formula of CnH2n+2. Notice that hydrocarbons have only Carbon and Hydrogen atoms. Its molar mass (M) is 44 g.
Molar Mass Calculation is done as like that
C=12 g/mol, H=1 g/mol. 1 mole propane has 3 moles Carbon atoms and 8 mole Hydrogen atoms. M(C3H8)= 3*12+ 8*1= 44 g
Combustion reaction of hydrocarbons gives carbon dioxide and water by releasing energy. That energy is called as enthalpy of combustion (ΔHc°).
ΔHc° of propane equals -2202.0 kj/mol. Burning of 1 mole C3H8 releases 2202 kj energy. Minus sign only indicates that the energy is given out ( an exothermic reaction ).
Let's write the combustion reaction.
C3H8 + O2 ---> CO2 + H20 (unbalanced) ΔHc° = -2202 kj/mol
Now, we calculate mole of 20 kg propane. Convert kilogram into gram since we use molar mass is defined in grams.
mole=mass/molar mass ; n=m/M ; n= 20000 g /44 (g/mol)=454 mole
1 mole propane releases 2202 kj energy.
454 mole propane release 2202 kj *454= 1000909 kj
The answer is 1000909 kj.
Answer:
B. The motorcyclist traveled southeast along a highway at 55 mph and reached the campsite in less than the two-hour estimated time.
Explanation:
<em>Velocity </em>is the rate at which an object changes position in a specific direction. It has both <em>magnitude and direction.</em>
Travelling <em>southeast</em> at <em>55 mph</em> is a <em>velocity</em>. It gives both speed and direction.
Statements A., B., and C. give the direction but not the speed.
Answer:
