A major component of gasoline is octane. When liquid octane is burned in air it reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide

gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of octane needed to produce 2.40 mol of water. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to 3 significant digits.

Answer:

0.267 mol

Explanation:

The <em>unbalanced equation</em> for the reaction that takes place is:

  • C₈H₁₈ + O₂ → H₂O + CO₂

Once we balance it we're left with:

  • 2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ → 18H₂O + 16CO₂

Using the <em>stoichiometric ratio </em>of water and octane from the balanced reaction, we can <u>convert mol of water into mol of octane</u>:

  • 2.40 mol H₂O * \frac{2molC_8H_{18}}{18molH_2O} = 0.267 mol C₈H₁₈

Thus 0.267 moles of octane are needed to produce 2.40 mol of water.

I'm not positive what evaporations you need but I have these.....

1. Wind assists evaporation; for example in clothes dry faster under a fan.

2. Heat assists evaporation; for example, in summer clothes dry faster than in winter.

3. Increase in surface area exposed assists evaporation; for instance, a wet cloth spread out dries faster than when folded.

4. Dryness assists evaporation; for instance, clothes dry faster in summer than during the monsoon when the air is humid.

5. The rate of evaporation depends upon the nature of the liquid; for example, petrol evaporates faster than water.

6. Vapor pressure: if pressure is applied on the surface of a liquid, evaporation is hindered; consider, for example, the case of a pressure cooker.

How many milliliters of a 0.40%(w/v) solution of nalorphine must be injected to obtain a dose of 1.5 mg?
ozzi
The number  of Ml  of  a  0.40 %w/v solution  of   ,nalorphine  that must  be injected  to  obtain  a  dose  of 1.5 mg is  calculated as  below


since M/v%   is  mass  of solute  in  grams per 100  ml

convert Mg to  g
1 g = 1000 mg  what  about  1.5 mg =?  grams
=   1.5 /1000 = 0.0015 grams


volume is therefore =  100 (  mass/ M/v%)

= 100  x(  0.0015/ 0.4) =  0.375  ML

Seawater is an example of a _______ solution
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

C. Solid in liquid

Explanation:

Seawater is an example of a solid in liquid solution.

Sea water is made up of:

  • water
  • mineral salts
  • dissolved gases

A liquid solution is always made up of a solute being dispersed within the solvent medium.

The solvent is the liquid or fluid medium.

Such solutions are homogeneous because the solute particles are distributed evenly or uniformly in the solvent.

The solute is usually present in smaller amount compared to the solvent.

What is the answer please
padilas [110]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A decomposition reaction is when one reactant (the substances to the left of the arrow in the reaction) breaks apart into two or more products (the substances to the right of the arrow).

Because KClO3 is breaking down into KCl and O2, it's a decomposition reaction.

Why the mixture of bromine and ethane is discoloured when left in the sun​
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

In the presence of UV light, ethane will react with bromine in a substitution reaction. UV light is the condition under which the reaction will occur so it is written above the arrow in the chemical equation. As the reaction proceeds, the intensity of the re-brown colour of the bromine water decreases.
