Answer:

m_{C_8H_{18}}=85.67gC_8H_{18}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given combustion reaction of octane, it is possible for us to perform the stoichiometric method in order to calculate the mass of octane that is required to consume 300.0 g of oxygen by considering the 2:25 mole ratio, and the molar masses of 114.22 g/mol and 32.00 g/mol respectively:

m_{C_8H_{18}}=300.0gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}*\frac{2molC_8H_{18}}{25molO_2}*\frac{114.22gC_8H_{18}}{1molC_8H_{18}}   \\\\m_{C_8H_{18}}=85.67gC_8H_{18}

Regards!

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: number 1

Explanation:

Third law of Newton: says that for every action ,there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, if the child is pushing an object to the right, it will recipe the same amount of force that he is exerting to the object but in opposite direction.

Number 2 and 3 are incorrect because, because the third law of Newton says "an equal and opposite reaction", not slightly more or less.

Number 4 is wrong, it is not in agreement with Newton's third law of motion.

What pressure, in atm, would be exerted by 0.023 grams of oxygen (O2) if it occupies 31.6 mL at 91
Vikentia [17]

Answer:  A pressure of 0.681 atm would be exerted by 0.023 grams of oxygen (O_2) if it occupies 31.6 mL at 91^{o}C.

Explanation:

Given : Mass of oxygen = 0.023 g

Volume = 31.6 mL

Convert mL into L as follows.

1 mL = 0.001 L\\31.6 mL = 31.6 mL \times \frac{0.001 L}{1 mL}\\= 0.0316 L

Temperature = 91^{o}C = (91 + 273) K = 364 K

As molar mass of O_2 is 32 g/mol. Hence, the number of moles of O_2 are calculated as follows.

No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{0.023 g}{32 g/mol}\\= 0.00072 mol

Using the ideal gas equation calculate the pressure exerted by given gas as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = temperature

Substitute the value into above formula as follows.

PV = nRT\\P  \times 0.0316 L = 0.00072 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 364 K\\P = \frac{0.00072 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 364 K}{0.0316 L}\\= 0.681 atm

Thus, we can conclude that a pressure of 0.681 atm would be exerted by 0.023 grams of oxygen (O_2) if it occupies 31.6 mL at 91^{o}C.
