Answer:

24.06 g of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> 2H₂O + CO₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of O₂ that reacted and the mass of CO₂ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (2×16)

= 12 + 32

= 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 44 = 44 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 35 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Therefore, 35 g of O₂ will react to produce = (35 × 44)/64 = 24.06 g of CO₂.

Thus, 24.06 g of CO₂ were produced from the reaction.

A sample of a compound that contains only the elements C, H, and N is completely burned in O₂ to produce 44.0 g of CO₂, 45.0 g o

koban [17]

Answer:

CH₅N

Explanation:

In the combustion, all of the C in the compound was used to produce CO₂ in a 1:1 ratio. Thus, the moles of CO₂ (MW 44.01 g/mol) produced equals the moles of C in the compound:

(44.0 g)(mol/44.01g) = 0.99977 mol CO₂ = 0.99977... mol C

Similarly, all of the H in the compound was used to produce H₂O in a ratio of 2H:1H₂O. The moles of H₂O (MW 18.02 g/mol) produced was:

(45.0 g)(mol/18.02g) = 2.497...mol H₂O

Moles of H is found using the molar ratio of 2H:1H₂O:

(2.497...mol H₂O)(2H/1H₂O) = 4.994...mol H

The ratio of H to C in the compound is:

(4.994...mol H)/(0.99977... mol C) = 5 H:C

Some NO₂ was produced from the N in the compound. Assuming a 1:1 ratio of C:N, the simplest empirical formula is: CH₅N.

Which best describes an oxidizing agent?

stellarik [79]

Answer:B) a reactant that undergoes reduction

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases during oxidation.

$M\rightarrow M^++e^-$

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced during reduction.

$N^++e^-\rightarrow N$

Overall reaction: $M+N^+\rightarrow M^++N$

The substance M which itself gets oxidized, reduces other and is called as reducing agent. The substance N which itself gets reduced, oxidizes other and is called as oxidizing agent.
