Answer:
0.267 mol
Explanation:
The <em>unbalanced equation</em> for the reaction that takes place is:
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 *
= 0.267 mol C₈H₁₈
Thus 0.267 moles of octane are needed to produce 2.40 mol of water.
There are 0.55 moles in glucose
It is mostly about an element, it usually goes like this: "which element has the bigger atomic size, Sodium or Oxygen? "
Answer:
photosynthesis
Explanation:
its the first step of the cycle
The balanced chemical reaction is:
CH4 + 2O2 —> CO2 + 2H2O
You need to convert mass to moles (divide by molar mass):
CH4 moles = 5 / 16 = 0.31 mol
O2 moles = 5 / 32 = 0.16 mol
To figure out which reactant is limiting, divide the actual moles by the corresponding coefficient in the reaction:
CH4: 0.31 / 1 = 0.31
O2: 0.16 / 2 = 0.08
O2 is the lower number, so it is the limiting reactant. From the reaction we know it takes 2 moles of O2 to react with each mole of CH4. Therefore, for however many moles of O2 we actually have, half as many moles of CH4 will react. Since we have 0.16 mol of O2, only 0.08 mol of CH4 will react, leaving behind 0.31 - 0.08 = 0.23 mol of CH4.
Now convert back to mass (multiply by molar mass) to find the mass of CH4 remaining:
0.23 x 16 = 3.68g
The closest answer is B.
