With the given formula, we can calculate the amount of CO₂ using the balance equation but we first need the moles of CH₄
1) to find the moles of CH₄, we need to use the ideal gas formula (PV= nRT). if we solve for n, we solve for the moles of CH₄, and then we can convert to CO₂. Remember that the units put in this formula depending on the R value units. I remember 0.0821 which means pressure (P) has to be in atm, volume (V) in liters, the amount (n) in moles, and temperature (T) in kelvin.
PV= nRT
P= 1.00 atm
V= 32.0 Liters
n= ?
R= 0.0821 atm L/mol K
T= 25 C= 298 K
let plug the values into the formula.
(1.00 x 32.0 L)= n x 0.0821 x 298K
n= (1.00 x 32.0 L )/ (0.0821 x 298)= 1.31 moles CH₄
2) now let's convert the mole of CH₄ to moles to CO₂ using the balance equation
1.31 mol CH₄ (1 mol CO₂/ 1 mol CH₄)= 1.31 mol CO₂
3) Now let's convert from moles to grams using the molar mass of CO₂ (find the mass of each atom in the periodic table and add them)
molar mass CO₂= 12.00 + (2 x 16.0)= 44.0 g/mol
1.31 mol CO₂ ( 44.0 g/ 1 mol)= 57.6 g CO₂
Note: let me know if you any question.
The answer to this question would be option A, tornado.
I believe the correct answer would be "It has no energy because it is just sitting there."
I hope this helps! :D
In order for an atom to be stable it should have eight valence electrons in order to follow the octet rule the only exception to this rule is hydrogen as the maximum valence electrons it is able to hold is two
