Answer : The maximum mass of H_2O produced will be,  3.24 grams

Explanation : Given,

Mass of CH_4 = 1.44 g

Mass of O_2 = 9.5 g

Molar mass of CH_4 = 16 g/mole

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

Molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of CH_4 and O_2.

\text{Moles of }CH_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }CH_4}{\text{Molar mass of }CH_4}=\frac{1.44g}{16g/mole}=0.09moles

\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }O_2}{\text{Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{9.5g}{32g/mole}=0.29moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 moles of CH_4 react with 2 mole of O_2

So, 0.09 moles of CH_4 react with 2\times 0.09=0.18 moles of O_2

From this we conclude that, O_2 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and CH_4 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of H_2O.

As, 1 mole of CH_4 react to give 2 moles of H_2O

So, 0.09 moles of CH_4 react to give 2\times 0.09=0.18 moles of H_2O

Now we have to calculate the mass of H_2O.

\text{Mass of }H_2O=\text{Moles of }H_2O\times \text{Molar mass of }H_2O

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.18mole)\times (18g/mole)=3.24g

Therefore, the maximum mass of H_2O produced will be, 3.24 grams.

The balanced equation for the above reaction is;
CH₄ + 2O₂ ---> CO₂ + 2H₂O
Stoichiometry of CH₄ to O₂ is 1:2
The number of methane moles present - 1.44 g/ 16 g/mol = 0.090 mol
Number of oxygen moles present - 9.5 g/ 32 g/mol = 0.30 mol
If methane is the limiting reagent,
0.090 moles of methane react with 0.090x 2 = 0.180 mol 
only 0.180 mol of O₂ is required but 0.30 mol of O₂ has been provided therefore O₂ is in excess and CH₄ is the limiting reactant.
Number of moles of water that can be produced - 0.180 mol
Therefore mass of water produced - 0.180 x 18 g/mol = 3.24 g 
Therefore mass of 3.24 g of water can be produced

Calculate the volume in mL of 0.279 M Ca(OH)2 needed to neutralize 24.5 mL of 0.390 M H3PO4 in a titration.
Vsevolod [243]

The volume of the 0.279 M Ca(OH)₂ solution required to neutralize 24.5 mL of 0.390 M H₃PO₄ is 51.4 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2H₃PO₄ + 3Ca(OH)₂ —> Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, H₃PO₄ (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 3

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of acid, H₃PO₄ (Ma) = 0.390 M
  • Volume of acid, H₃PO₄ (Va) = 24.5 mL
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 0.279 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.39 × 24.5) / (0.279 × Vb) = 2/3

9.555 / (0.279 × Vb) = 2/3

Cross multiply

2 × 0.279 × Vb = 9.555 × 3

0.558 × Vb = 28.665

Divide both side by 0.558

Vb = 28.665 / 0.558

Vb = 51.4 mL

Thus, the volume of the Ca(OH)₂ solution needed is 51.4 mL

If a car is traveling 100 km/h and comes to a stop in 3 minutes,what is acceleration of a passenger who is using vehicle restrai
Rama09 [41]

We are given –

  • Final velocity of car is, v= 0
  • Initial velocity of car is, u= 100 km/hr
  • Time taken, t is = 3 minutes or 180 sec

Here–

\qquad\pink{\bf \longrightarrow  Initial\:  velocity =  100 \:km/hr}

\qquad\sf \longrightarrow  Initial\:  velocity = \dfrac{ 100 \times 1000}{3600} \:m/s

\qquad\pink{ \bf \longrightarrow  Initial\:  velocity = 27.78\: m/s}

Now –

\qquad____________________________

\qquad\purple{\bf \longrightarrow  Acceleration  = \dfrac{Final\: Velocity -Initial  \:Velocity }{Time}}

\qquad\purple{\bf \longrightarrow  Acceleration  = \dfrac{v -u}{t}}

\qquad\sf \longrightarrow  Acceleration = \dfrac{(0- 27.78)}{1800}

\qquad\sf \longrightarrow  Acceleration =\cancel{ \dfrac{- 27.78}{1800}}

\qquad\purple{\bf \longrightarrow  Acceleration = -0.15 \: m/s^2}

\qquad_______________________________
