Answer:

4 g

Explanation:

First you need to write a balanced chemical equation. You are given thatmethane is burned, meaning a combustion reaction in which carbon dioxide and water are released.

Unbalanced: CH4 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O

Balanced: CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O

Givens:

X grams CH4 (Molecular mass 16.0 grams)

9 grams H2O (Molecular mass 18.0 grams)

11 grams CO2 (Molecular mass 44.0 grams)

Mole ratio: 1:2:1:2 (CH4:O2:CO2:H2O)

Then you need to find which of the reactants are the limiting reactant and which is the excess reactant. The limiting reactant is what you will base the rest of the problem on. To do this, you convert each measurement to moles from grams.

11 g CO2 / (44.0 g) = 0.25 moles CO2

9 g H2O / (18.0 g) = 0.5 moles

n of CH4 = n of CO2 = n of H2O /2 = 0.25 moles

m of CH4 = n* Mw = 0.25 * 16.0 = 4 g

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Pb₂O₄

                               

Explanation:

The given species are:

        Pb⁴⁺               O²⁻  

Now, to solve this problem, we use the combining powers which corresponds to the number of electrons usually lost or gained or shared by atoms during the course of a chemical combination.

                                          Pb⁴⁺               O²⁻  

Combining power               4                    2

Exchange of valencies        2                    4

Now the molecular formula is  Pb₂O₄

MrRa [10]

During the riding of the steep mountain, the body needs more energy because going up consume more energy and oxygen due to additional effect of gravity on your momentum.

<h3>What is the effect of cycling?</h3>

Cycling is a good exercise as swimming, while cycling, happy hormones are released like dopamine and serotonin.

The primary forces that work while cycling are gravity, friction, rolling resistance, and air resistance.

Thus, During the riding of the steep mountain, the bod needs more energy because going up consume more energy and oxygen due to additional effect of gravity on your momentum.

A solid with a density of 3.57g/mL and mass of 19.5g is added to a graduated cylinder that contain 23.2mL of water. What is the
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Volume of liquid = 28.7 mL

Explanation:

Given data;

Density of solid = 3.57 g/ml

Mass of solid = 19.5 g

Volume of water = 23.2 mL

Total volume when solid is dropped into graduated cylinder= ?

Solution:

Density = mass/ volume

v = m/d

v = 19.5 g/ 3.57 g/ml

v = 5.5 mL

Volume of liquid = volume of water + volume of solid

Volume of liquid = 23.2 mL + 5.5 mL

Volume of liquid = 28.7 mL
