<h3>Answer:</h3>

20.62 Kilo-joules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The Enthalpy of combustion of ethyl alcohol is -950 kJ/mol.
  • This means that 1 mole of ethyl alcohol evolves a quantity of heat of 950 Joules when burned.

Molar mass of ethyl ethanol = 46.08 g/mol

Therefore;

46.08 g of  C₂H₅OH evolves heat equivalent to 950 kilojoules

We can calculate the amount of heat evolved by 1 g of C₂H₅OH

Heat evolved by 1 g of C₂H₅OH  = Molar enthalpy of combustion ÷ Molar mass

                                      = 950 kJ/mol ÷ 46.08 g/mol

                                      = 20.62 Kj/g

Therefore, a gram of C₂H₅OH  will evolve 20.62 kilo-joules of heat

How many moles of solute would be needed to form two liters of a one molar
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

2 moles of solute.

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as number of moles of solute present in one litre of solution.

Hence one molar solution of NaCl means 1 mole of NaCl is present in 1 litre of solution.

Molarity = \frac{Number of moles of solute}{volume of solution in litres}

For 1 litre of solution 1 mole of solute is required to make a one molar solution.

Hence for 2 litres of solution we require 2 moles of solute to keep it one molar.

What gas will make a flame pop then go out
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Hydrogen Gas

Explanation:

The hydrogen gas now in the test tube is flammable. So when I hold the tube over the flame, the hydrogen gas ignites and creates a popping sound. It is like a tiny bomb or fireworks.

Hope this helped! :)

In this equation: FeBr2+K2CO3=Fe2(CO3)2+KBr do I simplify the 2's on iron and the CO3 on the "right side" before continuing or k
svetlana [45]
Yes simplify. Anybody educated in chemistry can look at the equation and see that you have Fe+2 and CO3-2 combined to make FeCO3. But you don't need the 2s. Always simplify the subscripts.

By the way, the equation is not fully balanced. Check KBr.
