Answer: C5H14N2

Explanation:

The element mass are:

C = 58.77 g

H = 13.81 g

N = 27.42 g

To get their moles, we have to divide by the molar mass which will be:

C: 58.77 / 12.01 = 4.8934

H: 13.81 / 1.008 = 13.7004

N: 27.42 / 14.01 = 1.9572

We then divide by the smallest mole which will be:

C: 4.8934 / 1.9572 = 2.5

H: 13.7004 / 1.9572 = 7

N: 1.9572 / 1.9572 = 1

We then multiply by 2 so that we can get whole number ratio:

C: 2.5 × 2 = 5

H: 7 × 2 = 14

N: 1 × 2 = 2

Therefore, the empirical formula will be = C5H14N2

Write a balanced equation for the combustion of C7H16(l) (heptane) -- i.e. its reaction with O2(g) forming the products CO2(g) a
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

<u>The standard enthalpy of reaction = -4854.7kJ</u>

<u>The difference: </u>ΔH-ΔE = Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T = <u>9910.288 J ≈ 9.91 kJ</u>    

Explanation:

<u>The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of heptane</u>:

C₇H₁₆ (l) + 11 O₂ (g) → 7 CO₂ (g) + 8 H₂O (l)

Given: The standard enthalpy of formation (\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }) for: C₇H₁₆ (l) = -187.8 kJ/mol, O₂ (g) = 0 kJ/mol, CO₂ (g) = -393.5 kJ/mol, H₂O (l) = -286 kJ/mol

<u>To calculate the standard enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H _{r}^{\circ }) can be calculated by the Hess's law</u>:

\Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [\sum \nu \cdot\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }(products)  \right ] - \left [\sum \nu\cdot\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }(reactants)  \right ]

Here, \nu is the stoichiometric coefficient

⇒ \Delta H _{r}^{\circ } =

\left [ 7\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (CO_{2}\right )+ 8\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (H_{2}O \right )\right ]

- \left [1\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (C_{7}H_{16}\right ) +11\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (O_{2} \right ) \right ]

=\left [ 7\times \left (-393.5 kJ/mol \right )+ 8\times \left (-286 kJ/mol \right )\right ]

-\left [1\times \left (-187.8 kJ/mol \right ) +11\times \left (0 kJ/mol \right ) \right ]

⇒ \Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [ \left (-2754.5 \right )+ \left (-2288 \right )\right ]\left -[ \left (-187.8 \right ) +\left (0 \right )\right ]

⇒ \Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [ -5042.5 ]\left -[ -187.8] = \left ( -4854.7kJ \right )

<u>To calculate the difference: </u>ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV)

We use the ideal gas equation: P.V = n.R.T

⇒ ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T

Given: Temperature:T = 298K, R = 8.314 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹

Δn = number of moles of gaseous products - number of moles of gaseous reactants = (7)- (11) = (-4)

⇒ ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T = (-4 mol) × (8.314 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹) × (298K) = <u>9910.288 J = 9.91 kJ</u>                              (∵ 1 kJ = 1000J )

Answer:

a)  After the balloon inflated after 440 uL of dropwise due to the reaction of 1-Decene and the solution in the conical vial. b) 4NaBH_{4} + 2HCl + 7H_{2}O ⇒ 16H_{2(g)}+ 2NaCl + Na_{2}B_{4}O_{7} c) No H_{2} was not the limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Generally, hydrogenation is the chemical reaction between a compound or element and molecular hydrogen in the presence of catalysts such as platinum.

a) After the balloon inflated after 440 uL of dropwise 1-Decene solution was added due to the reaction between 1-Decene and the solution in the conical vial.

b)  4NaBH_{4} + 2HCl + 7H_{2}O ⇒ 16H_{2(g)}+ 2NaCl + Na_{2}B_{4}O_{7}

c) H_{2} was not the limiting reactant based on the mol to mol ratio of H_{2} and decane which is 1:1. Therefore, if 0.8 mol of decane was produced then 0.8 mol of H_{2} would also be produced.
