Answer:

e. oxygen is a reactant in combustion and pure oxygen increases the reactant concentration

Explanation:

The reaction of a burning match is combustion. In this combustion, the organic components of the match (such as cellulose, C₆H₁₀O₅) react with oxygen, producing water and carbon dioxide:

  • C₆H₁₀O₅(s) + 6O₂(g) → 5H₂O(g) + 6CO₂(g)

Seeing as oxygen is a reactant and not a catalyst nor product, and that nitrogen plays no part in the reaction, <em>the only correct answer is option e</em>.

777dan777 [17]
I think the correct answer would be HCl + NaHCO3 -> NaCl + H2O + CO2, 2HCl + CaCO3 -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O, 2HCl + Mg(OH)2 -> MgCl2 + 2H2O. Hydrochloic acid would react with the basic substances in the stomach which are magnesium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate and <span>calcium carbonate.</span>

When 3.00 g of sulfur are combined with 3.00 g of oxygen, 6.00 g of sulfur dioxide (SO2) are formed. What mass of oxygen would b
bazaltina [42]
Actually, we can answer the problem even without the first statement. All we have to do is write the reaction for the production of sulfur trioxide.

2 S + 3 O₂ → 2 SO₃

The stoichiometric calculations is as follows:

6 g S * 1 mol/32.06 g S = 0.187 mol S
Moles O₂ needed = 0.187 mol S * 3 mol O₂/2 mol S = 0.2805 mol O₂
Since the molar mas of O₂ is 32 g/mol,
Mass of O₂ needed = 0.2805 mol O₂ * 32 g/mol = 8.976 g O₂
