Answer:

The final pressure is 2.0 atm

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Number of moles of methanol = 4 moles

Number of moles of oxygen = 3 moles

Volume and temperature are fixed

Original pressure = 1.0 atm

<u>Step 2</u>: The balanced equation

2 CH3OH + 3 O2 → 2 CO2 + 4 H2O  

For 2 moles of CH3OH consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce 2 moles of CO2 and 4 moles of H2O

This means the mol ratio methanol to oxygen = 2:3

<u>Step 3 : </u>Calculate the fina lpressure

Since methanol is a liquid and not a gas, it doesn't count for the pressure.

Number of moles O2 = 3 mol

This means the total number of moles for the reactants = 3 moles

The total number of moles  for the products = 2 + 4 = 6 moles of gas

Since V and T are fixed (and R is constant)

⇒ we can write the gas the gas law as following:

P2/P1 = n2/n1   OR P2 = (n2*P1)/n1

P2 = (6 mol * 1.0 atm ) / 3.0 mol

P2 = 2.0 atm

The final pressure is 2.0 atm

Convert 26.02 x 1023 molecules of C2H8 to grams. Round your answer to the hundredths place.
aliina [53]

Answer:

x= 138.24 g

Explanation:

We use the avogradro's number

6.023 x 10^23 molecules -> 1 mol C2H8

26.02 x 10^23 molecules -> x

x= (26.02 x 10^23 molecules  * 1 mol C2H8 )/6.023 x 10^23 molecules

x= 4.32 mol C2H8

1 mol C2H8     -> 32 g

4.32 mol C2H8 -> x

x= (4.32 mol C2H8 * 32 g)/ 1 mol C2H8

x= 138.24 g

The reaction of sodium peroxide and water produces sodium hydroxide and oxygen gas. The following balanced chemical equation rep
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

3.925 mol.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced equation:

<em>2 Na₂O₂(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → 4 NaOH(s) + O₂(g) ,</em>

It is clear that 2 moles of Na₂O₂ react with 2 moles of H₂O to produce 4 moles of NaOH and 1 mole of O₂ .

<em>Using cross multiplication:</em>

4 moles of NaOH produced with → 1 mole of O₂ .

15.7 moles of NaOH produced with → ??? mole of O₂ .

<em>∴ The no. of moles of O₂ made =</em> (1 mole)(15.7 mole)/(4 mole) =  <em>3.925 mol.</em>

How can an abiotic factor affect a biotic factor
xenn [34]
Biotic and abiotic factors are the environmental conditions that the organisms have to face to live in a specified environment.

-Abiotic factors-
Abiotic factors are the physical and chemical conditions of an environment. For example : heat, salinity, pressure, light, wind, pH ...

-Biotic factors-
Biotic factors are all the biological conditions of an environment for a specie/taxa. It can include prey and predator abundance, available food amount, available space, intra and interspecific competition...

The development of organims is under the control of abiotic factors. Some are adapted to heat, cold etc ... The abiotic factors will define which organisms are able or not to live in a specified place.

The living organisms will constitute the biotic factors, which define if and how can an organism live in a specified environment.
So, the abiotic factors are controling the biotic factors of an environment.

Hope it helps you !
