Answer:
Approximately 22.37 days, will it take for the water to be safe to drink.
Explanation:
Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:
Where,
is the concentration at time t
is the initial concentration
k is rate constant
Given that:- k = 0.27 (day)⁻¹
= 0.63 mg/L
mg/L
Applying in the above equation as:-



<u>Approximately 22.37 days, will it take for the water to be safe to drink.</u>
a. 0.137
b. 0.0274
c. 1.5892 g
d. 0.1781
e. 5.6992 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2 C4H10 + 13O2 -------> 8CO2 + 10H2O
2.46 g of water
Required
moles and mass
Solution
a. moles of water :
2.46 g : 18 g/mol = 0.137
b. moles of butane :
= 2/10 x mol water
= 2/10 x 0.137
= 0.0274
c. mass of butane :
= 0.0274 x 58 g/mol
= 1.5892 g
d. moles of oxygen :
= 13/2 x mol butane
= 13/2 x 0.0274
= 0.1781
e. mass of oxygen :
= 0.1781 x 32 g/mol
= 5.6992 g
