Answer:

There, there are no leftover for C6H14 instead, an additional mass of 4g of C6H14 is needed to completely react with 38.4g of O2.

Explanation:

Step 1:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is shown below:

2C6H14 + 19O2 —> 12CO2 + 14H2O

Step 2:

Let us calculate the masses of C6H14 and O2 that reacted from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

2C6H14 + 19O2 —> 12CO2 + 14H2O

Molar Mass of C6H14 = (12x6) + (14x1) = 72 + 14 = 86g/mol

Mass of C6H14 from the balanced equation = 2 x 86 = 172g

Molar Mass of O2 = 16x2 =32g/mol

Mass of O2 from the balanced equation = 19 x 32 = 608g

From the balanced equation above, 172g of C6H14 reacted with 608g of O2.

Step 3.

Now, let us determine the mass of C6H14 that will react with 38.4 g of oxygen. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above, 172g of C6H14 reacted with 608g of O2.

Therefore, Xg of C6H14 will react with 38.4g of O2 i.e

Xg of C6H14 = (172 x 38.4) /608

Xg of C6H14 = 10.9g

From the calculations made above, we can see clearly that the mass of C6H14 is limited as the reaction requires 10.9g of C6H14 and only 6.9g was given. There, there are no leftover for C6H14 instead, an additional mass ( 10.9 - 6.9 = 4g) of 4g of C6H14 is needed to completely react with 38.4g of O2.

How many Joules are released to cool 250.0 grams of liquid water from 100°C to 0°C? The specific heat of water is 4.180 J/g.C.
nlexa [21]

\bold{\huge{\orange{\underline{ Solution}}}}

\bold{\underline{ Given :- }}

  • <u>We </u><u>have </u><u>250g </u><u>of </u><u>liquid </u><u>water </u><u>and </u><u>it </u><u>needs </u><u>to </u><u>be </u><u>cool </u><u>at </u><u>temperature </u><u>from </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>C </u><u>to </u><u>0</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>C</u>
  • <u>Specific </u><u>heat </u><u>of </u><u>water </u><u>is </u><u>4</u><u>.</u><u>1</u><u>8</u><u>0</u><u>J</u><u>/</u><u>g</u><u>°</u><u>C</u>

\bold{\underline{ To \: Find :- }}

  • <u>We </u><u>have </u><u>to </u><u>find </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>total</u><u> </u><u>number </u><u>of </u><u>joules </u><u>released</u><u>. </u>

\bold{\underline{ Let's \:Begin:- }}

<u>We </u><u>know </u><u>that</u><u>, </u>

Amount of heat energy = mass * specific heat * change in temperature

<u>That </u><u>is, </u>

\sf{\red{ Q = mcΔT }}

<u>Subsitute </u><u>the </u><u>required </u><u>values </u><u>in </u><u>the </u><u>above </u><u>formula </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

\sf{ Q = 250 × 4.180 ×(0 - 100 )}

\sf{ Q = 250 × 4.180 × - 100 }

\sf{ Q = 250 × - 418}

\sf{\pink{ Q = - 104,500 J }}

Hence, 104,500 J of heat is released to cool 250 grams of liquid water from 100° C to 0° C.

\bold{\underline{ Now :- }}

<u>We </u><u>have </u><u>to </u><u>tell </u><u>whether </u><u>the </u><u>above </u><u>process </u><u>is </u><u>endothermic </u><u>or </u><u>exothermic </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

Here, In the above process ΔT is negative and as a result of it Q is also negative that means above process is Exothermic

  • <u>Exothermic </u><u>process </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>It </u><u>is </u><u>the </u><u>process </u><u>in </u><u>which </u><u>heat </u><u>is </u><u>evolved </u><u>. </u>
  • <u>Endothermic </u><u>process </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>It </u><u>is </u><u>the </u><u>process </u><u>in </u><u>which </u><u>heat </u><u>is </u><u>absorbed </u><u>.</u>

A fusion reaction always creates which of the following?
ICE Princess25 [194]

A fusion reaction can be regarded as the type of reaction that occurs where two lighter elements come together in a type of reaction giving rise to a heavier/more massive element.

A fusion reaction always creates a more massive atomic nucleus (option c).

When the two lighter nuclei comes together in a reaction, a more heavier/massive nucleus is formed but its mass will still be less than the combined mass of the two reactant nuclei.

This also indicates that the left over mass may have been released as energy.
