Liquid hexane

Chemistry
1 answer:
maks197457 [2]3 years ago
4 0

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of H_2O produced is 2.52 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.  The equation used is:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

  • <u>For hexane:</u>

Given mass of hexane = 1.72 g

Molar mass of hexane = 86.18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of hexane}=\frac{1.72g}{86.18g/mol}=0.020mol

  • <u>For oxygen gas:</u>

Given mass of oxygen gas = 8.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas= 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{8.0g}{32g/mol}=0.25mol

The chemical equation for the combustion of hexane follows:

2C_6H_{14}+19O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+14H_2O

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane reacts with 19 moles of oxygen gas

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will react with = \frac{19}{2}\times 0.020=0.19mol of oxygen gas

As the given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hexane is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane produces 14 moles of H_2O

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will produce = \frac{14}{2}\times 0.020=0.14mol of H_2O

We know, molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.14mol\times 18g/mol)=2.52g

Hence, the mass of H_2O produced is 2.52 g

As you go down a group on the periodic table, atomic radii tend to increase because elements with larger atomic numbers have more occupied electron levels which take up more space surrounding the nucleus.

Calculate Ho298 for the process
Inga [223]

Explanation:

As per the Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

Hence, according to this law the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

Sb + \frac{3}{2}Cl_2 \rightarrow SbCl_{3}    \Delta H^0_1 =  -314 kJ  ..........(1)

SbCl_{3} + Cl_2 \rightarrow SbCl_{5}    \Delta H^0_2 = -80kJ   ..............(2)

The final reaction is as follows:  

Sb + \frac{5}{2}Cl_{2} \rightarrow SbCl_{5}  \Delta H^0_3 = ?  .............(3)

Therefore, adding (1) and (2) we get the final equation (3) and value of \Delta H^{0}_{3} at 298 K will be as follows.

             \Delta H^{0}_{3} = \Delta H^{0}_{1} + \Delta H^{0}_{2}    

                       = -314 kJ + (-80) kJ

                       = -394 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that H^{o} at 298 K for the given process is -394 kJ.

A first-order decomposition reaction has a rate constant of 0.00440 yr−1. How long does it take for [reactant] to reach 12.5% of
mina [271]

Answer:

473 year

Explanation:

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given:

To reach 12.5% of reactant means that 0.125 of [A_0] is decomposed. So,

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]} = 0.125

t = ?

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-k\times t}

0.125=e^{-0.00440\times t}

t = 473 year
