<span>A hydrocarbon is a molecule whose structure includes only hydrogen and carbon atoms. Hydrocarbons containing between six and ten carbon molecules are the top components of most fuels. In general, these molecules are burned to produce energy. Examples such include: 1. Methane: A fuel in electrical generation. 2. Propane: Generally used heating and cooking. 3. Butane: Generally used in lighters and aerosol cans. 4.Heptane: The major component of gasoline Hydrocarbons are majorly used as a combustible fuel source and are considered a primary source of energy for contemporary civilizations. Oil is an excellent example of a hydrocarbon fuel currently in use all over the world.</span>
I guess it is D, bc heterogeneous means a mixture that’s not uniform in structure
According to the balanced equation of the reaction:
H2X (aq) +2 NaOH (aq) → Na2X (aq) + 2H2O(l)
First, we have to get the no. of moles of H2X:
no.of moles of H2X = weight / molar mass
when we have the H2X weight = 0.1873 g & the molar mass H2X = 85 g/mol
So by substitution:
∴ no.of moles of H2X = 0.1873 /85
= 0.0022 mol
-then, we need to get no.of moles of NaOH:
from the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mol H2X = 2 mol NaOH
∴ no.of moles of NaOH = no.of moles of H2X *2
= 0.0022 * 2 = 0.0044 mol
So we can get the volume per litre from this formula:
M (NaOH) = no.of moles NaOH / Volume L
So by substitution:
0.1052 = 0.0044 / Volume L
∴Volume = 0.042 L *1000 = 42 mL
