Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{21.6 L}}

Explanation:

We must do the conversions

mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of CO₂ ⟶ volume of CO₂

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ:        180.16

         C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ⟶ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

m/g:      24.5

(a) Moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

\text{Moles of C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} = \text{24.5 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}{\text{180.16 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}\\\\= \text{0.1360 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}

(b) Moles of CO₂

\text{Moles of CO}_{2} =\text{0.1360 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol CO}_{2}}{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}} = \text{0.8159 mol CO}_{2}

(c) Volume of CO₂

We can use the Ideal Gas Law.

pV = nRT

Data:

p = 0.960 atm

n = 0.8159 mol

T = 37  °C

(i) Convert the temperature to kelvins

T = (37 + 273.15) K= 310.15 K

(ii) Calculate the volume

\begin{array}{rcl}pV &=& nRT\\\text{0.960 atm} \times V & = & \text{0.8159 mol} \times \text{0.082 06 L}\cdot\text{atm}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1} \times \text{310.15 K}\\0.960V & = & \text{20.77 L}\\V & = & \textbf{21.6 L} \\\end{array}\\\text{The volume of carbon dioxide is $\large \boxed{\textbf{21.6 L}}$}

Four properties of water are listed. It reacts with halogens to form oxygen gas as one of the products. It is transparent and ta
Bezzdna [24]

Chemical property is the property of the substances that describes the ability of the substance to involve in chemical reactions. Physical property is that which does not change the chemical composition of the substances. The following properties of water that it is transparent and tasteless in its pure form and it freezes at a temperature of 0^{0}C are physical properties as they simply indicate the change in physical state without any change in chemical composition of water.

The other two properties that water reacts with halogens to form oxygen gas as one of the products and water decomposes to form hydrogen and oxygen are chemical properties as the chemical composition of water changes in the given reaction.

Therefore the correct answer is b. 1 and 4
