Moles of Oxygen= 2.8075 moles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

29.2 grams of acetylene

Required

moles of Oxygen

Solution

Reaction(Combustion of Acetylene) :

2 C₂H₂ (g) + 5 O₂ (g) ⇒ 4CO₂ (g) + 2H₂O (g)

Mol of Acetylene :

= mass : MW Acetylene

= 29.2 g : 26 g/mol

= 1.123

From equation, mol ratio of Acetylene(C₂H₂) : O₂ = 2 : 5, so mol O₂ :

= 5/2 x mol C₂H₂

= 5/2 x 1.123

= 2.8075 moles

Why are only certain colors absorbed by and emitted from an atom?

zavuch27 [327]

The way I would explain it is quite difficult to understand, so this is what Google says. "The wavelength (or equivalently, frequency) of the photon is determined by the difference in energy between the two states. These emitted photons form the element's spectrum. The fact that only certain colors appear in an element's atomic emission spectrum means that only certain frequencies of light are emitted." I hope this helped.

Mixtures of benzene and cyclohexane exhibit ideal behavior. A solution was created containing 1.5 moles of liquid benzene and 2.

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Vapour pressure of cyclohexane at 50°C is 490torr

Vapour pressure of benzene at 50°C is 90torr

Explanation:

Using Raoult's law, pressure of a solution is defined by the sum of the product sbetween mole fraction of both solvents and pressure of pure solvents.

$P_{solution} = X_{A}P^0_{A}+X_{B}P^0_{B}$

In the first solution:

$X_{cyclohexane}=\frac{2.5mol}{2.5mol+1.5mol} =0.625$

$X_{benzene}=\frac{1.5mol}{2.5mol+1.5mol} =0.375$

$340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+0.375P^0_{B}$ (1)

For the second equation:

$X_{cyclohexane}=\frac{3.5mol}{3.5mol+1.5mol} =0.700$

$X_{benzene}=\frac{1.5mol}{3.5mol+1.5mol} =0.300$

$370torr = 0.700P^0_{A}+0.300P^0_{B}$ (2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

$340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+0.375(1233.3-2.333P^0_{A})$

$340torr = 0.625P^0_{A}+462.5-0.875P^0_{A}$

-122.5torr = -0.250P°A

$P^0_{A} = 490 torr$

Vapour pressure of cyclohexane at 50°C is 490torr

And for benzene:

$370torr = 0.700*490torr+0.300P^0_{B}$

$P^0_{B}=90torr$

Vapour pressure of benzene at 50°C is 90torr

A 111.6 gram sample of iron (MW=55.8) was heated from 0 degrees C to 20 degrees C. It absorbed 1004 Joules of energy. What is th

qwelly [4]

Use the equation q=ncΔT.
q= heat absorbed our released (in this case 1004J)
n= number of moles of sample ( in this case 2.08 mol)
c=molar heat capacity
ΔT=change in temperature (in this case 20°C)
You have to rewrite the equation for c.
c=q/nΔT
c=1004J/(2.08mol x 20°C)
c=24.1 J/mol°C

I hope this helps
