I think the answer is approximately 4.12 billion years since the amount of years is 4.543 billion years
Interesting problem. Thanks for posting.
C2H2 + (3/2)02 ====> H2O + 2CO2
CH4 + 2O2 =====> 2H2O + CO2
The molar mass of C2H2 = 2*12 + 2*1 = 26
The molar mass of CH4 = 1*12 + 4*1 = 16
The number of moles of C2H2 = x
The number of moles of CH4 = y
26x + 16y = 230.9 grams
For water we get (from the C2H2). Water has a molar mass of 2*1 + 16 = 18
x*18 See the balanced equation to see what it is the same number of moles as C2H2
From the methane we get
y*18
2*y* 18. Again see the balanced equation to see where that 2 came from.
18x + 36y is the total amount of water.
Now for the CO2. CO2 has a molar mass of 12 + 2*16 = 44
From C2H2 we get 2*44*x = 88x grams of CO2
From CH4 we get 1*y*44 grams of CO2
88x + 44y for CO2
Now we total to get the grand total of water and CO2
18x + 44y + 88x + 44y = 972.7 grams total.
106x + 88y = 972.7
Two equations, two unknowns, we should be able to solve this problem
26x + 16y = 230.9
106x + 88y = 972.7
I'm not going to go through the math unless you request me to do so.
x = 8.03 moles
y = 1.38 moles
The initial amount of C2H2 was 8.03 * 26 = 208.78
The initial amount of CH4 was 16*1.38 = 22.08
The total (as a check is 230.86 which is pretty close to the given amount.
So Methane's mass in the initial givens was 22.08 grams.
In this question, you are given the gasoline density (0.749g/ml) and volume of the gasoline (19.2 gallons). You are asked the mass of the gasoline in pounds. Then you need to change the grams into pounds and the ml into gallons. The calculation would be:
mass of gasoline= density * volume
mass of gasoline= 0.749g/ml * (1 pound/453.592grams) * 3785.41ml/gallon * 19.2 gallon= 120 pounds
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>Since the experiment is set out to determine the melting point of the white solid, after missing the melting point due to distraction, there are two possible solutions and both involves a repeat of the experiment.</em>
1. The first one is to allow the molten substance to solidify again and then repeat the experiment. This time around, a critical attention should be paid to be able to notice the melting point temperature once the temperature gets to 132 C.
2. The second solution would be discard the molten substance and repeat the experiment with the a new solid one. Similarly, critical attention should be paid once the temperature gets to 132 C since it is sure that the melting point lies within 132 and 138 C.
I think the answer would be : Tetrahedral
Oxygen has 6 electrons and need 2 more electron to complete its octet. In Tetrahedral, the electrons are arranged so it surround the oxygen and forming a 109 degree bond angel/
hope this helps
