Answer:

1.8 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

CH₃CH₃(g) + 3.5 O₂(g) ⇒ 2 CO₂(g) + 3 H₂O(g)

Step 2: Determine the limiting reactant

The theoretical mass ratio of CH₃CH₃ to O₂ is 30.06:112.0 = 0.2684:1.

The experimental mass ratio of CH₃CH₃ to O₂ is 0.60:3.52 = 0.17:1.

Thus, the limiting reactant is CH₃CH₃

Step 3: Calculate the mass of CO₂ produced

The theoretical mass ratio of CH₃CH₃ to O₂ is 30.06:88.02.

0.60 g CH₃CH₃ × 88.02 g CO₂/30.06 g CH₃CH₃ = 1.8 g

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A chemical reaction in which an uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound is called a simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction.

Explanation:

A simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction, called single-displacement reaction, is a reaction in which an element of a compound is substituted by another element involved in the reaction. The starting materials are always pure elements and an aqueous compound. And a new pure aqueous compound and a different pure element are generated as products. The general form of a simple substitution reaction is:

AB + C → A +BC

where C and A are pure elements; C replaces A within compound AB to form a new co, placed CB and elementary A.

So, in a Single replacement reaction an uncombined element replaces an element.

This puts them in the best position to gain the resources that they need to survive, most notably, the sun. The smaller plants, however, do not have this advantage, and lose out to the trees.</span>
