Answer:

3.1 kg

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced combustion equation

C₈H₁₈ + 12.5 O₂ ⇒ 8 CO₂ + 9 H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 1.0 kg of C₈H₁₈.

The molar mass of C₈H₁₈ is 114.23 g/mol.

1.0 × 10³ g × 1 mol/114.23 g = 8.8 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of CO₂ produced from 8.8 moles of C₈H₁₈

The molar ratio of C₈H₁₈ to CO₂ is 1:8. The moles of CO₂ produced are 8/1 × 8.8 mol = 70 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 70 moles of CO₂

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol.

70 mol × 44.01 g/mol = 3.1 × 10³ g = 3.1 kg

How many formula units are in 5.33 moles of cucl2​
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

32.1 × 10²³ formula units of CuCl₂

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of CuCl₂ = 5.33 mol

Number of formula units  of CuCl₂ = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

one mole of  any substance contain 6.022 × 10²³ formula units thus,

5.33 moles of CuCl₂ = 5.33 ×6.022 × 10²³ formula units

32.1 × 10²³ formula units of CuCl₂

Which term can be used to describe the process in the reaction below? 2 NaHCO3 (s) → Na2CO3 (s) + H2O (g) + CO2 (g)
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Decomposition

Explanation:

If we look at the process;

2 NaHCO3 (s) → Na2CO3 (s) + H2O (g) + CO2 (g)

We can see that NaHCO3 was broken down into Na2CO3, H2O and CO2.

The breakdown of one compound to yield other chemical compounds is known as decomposition.

Hence the NaHCO3 was decomposed in the process above.
