Answer: gaseous molecules are far apart
Explanation:
One of the states in which matter exists is gas. Gases are made of up molecules that are far apart, travelling randomly and rapidly within the containing vessel.
Hence, they are easy to compress whereby they occupy limited space as the gaseous molecules are closely packed in vessels like cylinders and transported to places where they may be needed.
<span>The alkali metals and hydrogen are reactive because they have only one electron to give in order to complete their valence shell. It is easier to give that one electron so when given the opportunity they will. This means they will react with anything polar or willing to take an electron.</span>
Answer:
1) Write the balanced equation:
2C2H6 + 7O2 ---> 4CO2 + 6H2O
2) Determine limiting reagent:
C2H6 ⇒ 13.8 g / 30.0694 g/mol = 0.45894 mol
O2 ⇒ 45.8 g / 31.9988 g/mol = 1.4313 mol
C2H6 ⇒ 0.45894 / 2 = 0.22947
O2 ⇒ 1.4313 / 7 = 0.20447
Oxygen is limiting.
3) Determine theoretical yield of water:
The oxygen : water molar ratio is 7 : 6
7 is to 6 as 1.4313 mol is to x
x = 1.2268286 mol of water
4) Convert moles of water to grams:
1.2268286 mol times 18.015 g/mol = 22.1 g (to three sig figs)
Solution to (b):
14.2 g / 22.1 g = 64.2%
Explanation:
the states of the reactants and products
the temperature and pressure at which the reaction was carried out
the relative amounts of reactants and products
the type of catalyst that is used to speed up the reaction
whether the reaction can go in both directions
Explanation:
A chemical equation is an equation that shows how the reactants are combining together to give the products.
The following are the information to include when writing a chemical equation;
- the states of the reactants and products
whether solid, liquid or gases or aqueous, It is usually appended as a subscript in bracket
- the temperature and pressure at which the reaction was carried out
this shows the condition under which the reaction was carried out. It also gives useful information that can be used to quantitatively determine heat changes in a reaction.
- the relative amounts of reactants and products
this is usually derived from the balanced equation. They are the numbers appended at the beginning of the species in the equation
- the type of catalyst that is used to speed up the reaction
it is a good practices to provide the information about the catalyst used.
- whether the reaction can go in both directions
→ signifies one direction
⇔ both directions

In this question, the sulfur atom has atomic number 16 and atomic mass 33. The Atomic number represents the number of the proton inside the atoms and atomic mass represent the mass of the atoms. Since electron mass to small, the atomic mass can be interpreted as the sum of neutron and proton. Then, the number of the neutron would be:
mass= neutron + proton
33= neutron+16
neutron = 17
