Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of compound A  = 25g

Mass of compound B = 40g

Mass of final mixture = 55g

What happens to the missing mass?

According to the law of conservation of mass, in chemical reaction, matter is transformed from one form to another but cannot be created nor destroyed.

We expect the final mass of the mixture and that of the reacting compounds to be the same but the opposite is the case.

There is a mass loss which typifies most chemical reaction.

The reason for this is that some of the masses must have been lost by the production of gaseous species which are unaccounted for.

The missing mass:

  Total mass expected  = mass of A + mass of B = 25 + 40 = 65g

Missing mass = expected mass - mass of final mixture = 65 - 55 = 10g

The missing part of the question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

C10H22(l) + 31/2 O2 (g)-----> 10CO2(g) + 11H2O(l)

V= 70.4L of CO2

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is:

C10H22(l) + 31/2 O2 (g)-----> 10CO2(g) + 11H2O(l)

Number of moles of decane = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of decane= 122gmol-1

n= 0.370×10^3g/122gmol-1= 3.0 moles

T= 13°C +273=286K

P= 1atm

R= 0.082 atmLK-1mol-1

From :

PV= nRT

V= nRT/P

V= 3.0×0.082×286/1

V= 70.4L of CO2

A cylinder contains 250 g of Helium at 200 K. The external pressure is constant at 1 atm. The temperature of the system is raise
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

There is 96200 J or 96 kJ of heat released.

Explanation:

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

Mass of helium = 250 grams

Temperature = 200 K

Temperature is raised by 74 K

The heat capacity of helium = 20.8 J/mol*K

Molecular weight for helium = 4 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate moles of Helium

Moles of Helium = mass of Helium / molar mass of helium

Moles of helium = 250 grams / 4g/mol

Moles of helium = 62.5 moles

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate heat

Q = n*c*ΔT  or

⇒ with Q = the heat released in Joule

⇒ with n = moles of helium = 62.5 moles

⇒ with c = the heat capacity of helium = 20.8 J/mol*K

⇒ with ΔT = the change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 74 K

Q = 62.5 mol * 20.8 J/mol*K * 74 K

Q = 96200 J = 96 kJ

Since the temperature is raised, this is an exothermic reaction. The heat is released.

There is 96200 J or 96 kJ of heat released.
