aseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 5.5 g of methane is

maksim [4K]

Answer:

There is 9.6 grams of CO2 produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of methane = 5.50 grams

Molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 13.9 grams

Molar mass of oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The reaction

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Step 3: Calculate number of moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles methane = 5.50 grams / 16.04 g/mol

Moles methane = 0.343 moles

Moles oxygen = 13.9 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 0.434 moles

For 1 mol CH4 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol CO2 and 2 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely react (0.434 moles).

There will react 0.434/2 = 0.217 moles CH4

There will remain 0.343-0.217 = 0.126 moles CH4

There will be produced 0.434 moles of H2O and

0.434/2 =0.217 moles of CO2

Step 4: Calculate mass of products

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass CO2 = 0.217 moles ¨44.01 g/mol

Mass CO2 = 9.6 grams

Mass H2O = 0.434 moles * 18.02

Mass H2O = 7.8 grams

How much would the temperature of 275 g of water increase if 36.5 kj of heat were added?

Andrew [12]

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature increase will be 31.70°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the increase in the temperature of the system, we use the equation:

$q=mc\Delta T$

where,

q = Heat absorbed = 36.5 kJ = 36500J

m = Mass of water = 275 g

c = Specific heat capacity of water = $4.186J/g^oC$

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = ? °C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$36500J=275\times 4.186J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=31.70^oC$

Hence, the temperature increase will be 31.70°C.

Consider three gases: Ar, SF6, and Cl2. If 50.0 grams of these gases are placed in each of three identical containers, which con

adoni [48]

The ideal gas law:
$pV=nRT \Rightarrow p=\frac{nRT}{V}$
p - pressure, n - number of moles, R - the gas constant, T - temperature, V - volume

The volume and temperature of all three containers are the same, so the pressure depends on the number of moles. The greater the number of moles, the higher the pressure.
The mass of gases is 50 g.

$Ar \\
M \approx 39.948 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\
n=\frac{50 \ g}{39.948 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 1.25 \ mol \\ \\
SF_6 \\
M \approx 146.06 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\
n=\frac{50 \ g}{146.06 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 0.34 \ mol \\ \\
Cl_2 \\
M=70.9 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\
n=\frac{50 \ g}{70.9 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 0.71 \ mol$

The greatest number of moles is in the container with Ar, so there is the highest pressure.
