Answer:

167,3 grams of O2 (g)

Explanation:

According to the following balanced equation:

C3H8 + 5 02 ---> 3 CO2 + 4 H20

We calculate the mass of the moles:

5 mol O2 = 16grams/mol x2x 5= 160 grams/mol

1 mol C3H8= 3 x12 grams/mol + 8 x 1 gram/mol= 44 grams/mol

If 44 grams C3H8 react with--------- 160 grams O2

46 gramsC3H8 react with --------X = (46x160)/44 =167, 3 grams O2

A 23.5g aluminum block is warmed to 65.9°C and plunged into an insulated beaker containing 55.0g water initially at 22.3°C. The

atroni [7]

Answer:

25.97oC

Explanation:

Heat lost by aluminum = heat gained by water

M(Al) x C(Al) x [ Temp(Al) – Temp(Al+H2O) ] = M(H2O) x C(H2O) x [ Temp(Al+H2O) – Temp(H2O) ]

Where M(Al) = 23.5g, C(Al) = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 0.900J/goC, Temp(Al) = 65.9oC, Temp(Al+H2O)= temperature of water and aluminum at equilibrium = ?, M(H2O) = 55.0g, C(H2O)= specific heat capacity of liquid water = 4.186J/goC

Let Temp(Al+H2O) = X

23.5 x 0.900 x (65.9-X) = 55.0 x 4.186 x (X-22.3)

21.15(65.9-X) = 230.23(X-22.3)

1393.785 - 21.15X = 230.23X – 5134.129

230.23X + 21.15X = 1393.785 + 5134.129

251.38X = 6527.909

X = 6527.909/251.38

X = 25.97oC

So, the final temperature of the water and aluminum is = 25.97oC

Well the solvent is the liquid in a solution so your answer would be Solute, D. That is the one that would represent the sugar crystals being evenly mixed into a solution.

Does potassium nitrate (KN03) incorporate ionic bonding, covalent bonding, or both? Explain.

ladessa [460]

Answer: $KNO_3$ incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here potassium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as $K^{+}$ cation and nitrate $NO_3^{-}$ is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral $KNO_3$ . $NO_3^-$ is formed by sharing of electrons between two non metals nitrogen and oxygen.

Thus $KNO_3$ incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.
