Answer:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> CO₂ + 2H₂O

Explanation:

The thermochemical equation for the combustion of methane can be obtained as follow:

Methane (CH₄) under goes combustion in the presence of air (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O). This can be represented in the equation below:

CH₄ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

Thus, we can balance the equation as follow:

CH₄ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

There are 4 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H₂O as shown below:

CH₄ + O₂ —> CO₂ + 2H₂O

There are a total of 4 atoms of O on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of O₂ as shown below:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> CO₂ + 2H₂O

Now the equation is balanced.

If 200 ml of 0.15 M propionic acid (PA) is added to 300 ml of 0.02 M NaOH, what is the resulting pH of the solution? Round the a
vodomira [7]

Answer:

pH = 4.543

Explanation:

  • CH3CH2COOH  + H2O ↔ CH3CH2COO-  +  H3O+
  • pKa = - Log Ka

∴ Ka = [H3O+][CH3CH2COO-]/[CH3CH2COOH]

∴ pKa = 4.87

⇒ Ka = 1.349 E-5 = [H3O+][CH3CH2COO-]/[CH3CH2COOH]

added 300 mL 0f 0.02 M NaOH:

⇒ <em>C</em> CH3CH2COOH = ((0.200 L)(0.15 M)) - ((0.300 L)(0.02 M))/(0.3 + 0.2)

⇒ <em>C</em> CH3CH2COOH = 0.048 M

⇒ <em>C</em> NaOH = (0.300 L)(0.02 M) / (0.3 +0.2) = 0.012 M

mass balance:

⇒ 0.048 + 0.012 = 0.06 M = [CH3CH2COO-] + [CH3CH2COOH].......(1)

charge balance:

⇒ [H3O+] + [Na+] = [CH3CH2COO-]

∴ [Na+] = 0.02 M

⇒ [CH3CH2COO-] = [H3O+] + 0.02 M.............(2)

(2) in (1):

⇒ [CH3CH2COOH] = 0.06 M - 0.02 M - [H3O+] = 0.04 M - [H3O+]

replacing in Ka:

⇒ 1.349 E-5 = [H3O+][([H3O+] + 0.02) / (0.04 - [H3O+])

⇒ (1.349 E-5)(0.04 - [H3O+]) = [H3O+]² + 0.02[H3O+]

⇒ 5.396 E-7 - 1.349 E-5[H3O+] = [H3O+]² + 0.02[H3O+]

⇒ [H3O+]² + 0.02001[H3O+] - 5.396 E-7 = 0

⇒ [H3O+ ] = 2.867 E-5 M

∴ pH = - Log [H3O+]

⇒ pH = 4.543

How can miscible liquids that different boiling points be separated
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

By boiling and further condensing the liquid with the lowest boiling point.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the attached diagram, it turns out possible for us to infer that the mechanism whereby miscible liquids with different boiling points are separated is distillation, because the flask is heated until the boiling point of the liquid with the lowest value, in order to boil it and subsequently condense it, whereas the liquid with the highest boiling point remains in the flask; and therefore, the two liquids are separated.

Regards!
