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.

What is the molarity of a solution if 300.0 ml of it contains 16.8 g of kno3? [formula weight: kno3, 101.11 amu]?
AVprozaik [17]
The molarity is count by dividing the mole of the solute within 1 liter of solvent. In this case, the KNO3 is 16.8g with 101.11 g/mol molar mass. Then we need to find the mol first. The calculation would be: 16.8g / (101.11g/mol)= 0.0166 mol.

Then the molarity would be: 0.0166mol/ 0.3l= 0.0498= 0.0553 M

Medicinal “ether" is produced when ethyl alcohol is treated with an acid. How many grams of
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

34.3 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 CH₃CH₂OH ⇒ CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 50.0 g of CH₃CH₂OH

The molar mass of CH₃CH₂OH is 46.07 g/mol.

50.0 g × 1 mol/46.07 g = 1.09 mol

Step 3: Calculate the theoretical moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ produced

The molar ratio of CH₃CH₂OH to CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ is 2:1. The moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ theoretically produced are 1/2 × 1.09 mol = 0.545 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the real moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ produced

The percent yield of the reaction is 85%.

0.545 mol × 85% = 0.463 mol

Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.463 moles of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃

The molar mass of CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ is 74.12 g/mol.

0.463 mol × 74.12 g/mol = 34.3 g

What is the mass (grams) of salt in 10.0 m' of ocean water? ball park-4x10's (1.000 molsalt -58.44 g salt, 1.0 L ocean water -0.
koban [17]

Answer:

3.5 × 10⁵ g of salt

Explanation:

<em>What is the mass (grams) of salt in 10.0 m³ of ocean water?</em>

We have this data:

  • 1.000 mol salt is equal to 58.44 g salt
  • 1.0 L of ocean water contains 0.60 mol of salt

We will need the following relations:

  • 1 L = 1dm³
  • 1 m³ = 10³ dm³

We can use proportions:

10.0m^{3} .\frac{10^{3}dm^{3}  }{1m^{3} } .\frac{1L}{1dm^{3} } .\frac{0.60molSalt}{1.0L} .\frac{58.44gSalt}{1molSalt} =3.5 \times 10^{5} gSalt

How do you know what numbers in a chemical formula are significant
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

All the numbers in a chemical formula are significant, It is because the numbers in a chemical formula denote the number of different atoms present in the particular compound.

For example in H2SO4 there are 2 H 1 S and 4 O. This means 1 H2SO4 has 2 hydrogen 1 sulphur and 4 oxygen.
