Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Number of moles of each gas is

Nitrogen = 15/28 = 0.536 kmoles

Helium = 5/4  = 1.25 kmoles

Methane = 60/16 = 3.75 kmoles

Ethane =    20/30 = 0.67 kmoles

Total number of moles =  0.536 kmoles + 1.25 kmoles + 3.75 kmoles +  0.67 kmoles = 6.206 kmoles

Mole fraction of each gas;

Nitrogen = 0.536 kmoles/6.206 kmoles = 0.086

Helium = 1.25 kmoles/6.206 kmoles = 0.201

Methane = 3.75 kmoles/6.206 kmoles =0.604

Ethane = 0.67 kmoles/6.206 kmoles =0.108

Partial pressure of each gas;

Nitrogen = 0.086 * 1200 kPa = 103.2 kPa

Helium = 0.201 * 1200 kPa = 241.2 kPa

Methane = 0.604 * 1200 kPa = 724.8 kPa

Ethane = 0.108 * 1200 kPa = 129.6 kPa

Apparent specific heat at constant pressure;

Cp = (0.15 * 1.039) + (0.05 * 5.1926) + ( 0.6 * 2.2537) + (0.2 * 1.7662)

Cp = 2.12 KJ Kg-1 K-1

Cv = Cp- Ru/M

Cv= 2.12 - 8.314/16.12 = 1.604 KJ Kg-1 K-1

You perform a combustion analysis on a 255 mg sample of a substance that contains only C, H, and O, and you find that 561 mg of
zhuklara [117]
The combustion of an organic compound is mostly written as,
                        CaHbOc + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
where a, b, and c are supposed to be the subscripts of the elements C, H, and O in the compound. Determining the number of moles of C and H in the product which is the same as that in the compound,
   (Carbon, C)   :   (561 mg) x (12/44) = 153 mg x (1 mmole/12 mg) = 12.75
   (Hydrogen, H) :  (306 mg) x (2/18)  = 34 mg x (1 mmole/1 mg) = 34 
   Calculating for amount of O in the sample,
(oxygen, O) = 255 - 153 mg - 34 mg = 68 mg x (1mmole/16 mg) = 4.25 
The empirical formula is therefore,
                        C(51/4)H34O17/4
                           C3H8O1
The molar mass of the empirical formula is 60. Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is,
                                C9H24O3

The length breadth and thickness of a brick is 18cm 8 cm and 5cm respictively find the area of the widest part of rhe brick​
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

144cm²

Explanation:

Given dimensions:

     Length x breadth x thickness

        18cm  x   8cm    x    5cm

The widest part of this figure will be the face containing the length and the breadth.

The breadth is the width of the figure;

Area of the widest part  = length x breadth = 18cm x 8cm  = 144cm

The area of the widest part of the figure is 144cm²

ioda

Answer:

t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds

Explanation:

First order rate constant is given as,

k =  (2.303 /t) log  [A₀] /[Aₙ]

where  [A₀]  is the initial concentraion of the reactant; [Aₙ] is the concentration of the reactant at time, <em>t</em>

[A₀]  = 615 calories;

[Aₙ] = 615 - 480 = 135 calories

k = 2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹

substituting the values in the equation of the rate constant;

2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹ = (2.303/t) log (615/135)

(2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹) / log (615/135) = (2.303/t)

t = 2.303 / 3.037 * 10⁻²⁰

t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds
