Answer:

50.8 g

Explanation:

Equation of reaction.

CH_4 + 2O_2 \to CO_2 + 2H_2O

From the given information, the number of moles of methane = mass/ molar mass

= 15.4 g /  16.04 g/mol

= 0.960 mol

number of moles of oxygen gas = 90.3 g / 32 g/ mol

= 2.82 mol

Since 1 mol of methane requires 2 moles of oxygen

Then 0.960 mol of methane will require = 0.960 mol × 2 = 1.92 mol of oxygen gas

Thus, methane serves as a limiting reagent.

2.82 mol oxygen gas will result in 2.82 moles of water

So, the theoretical yield of water = moles × molar mass

= 2.82 mol × 18.01528 g/mol

= 50.8 g

How much energy (in joules) is released when 0.06 kilograms of mercury is condensed to a liquid at the same temperature? A. 51,3
expeople1 [14]
The amount of energy released when 0.06 kg of mercury condenses at the same temperature can be calculated using its latent heat of fusion which is the opposite of melting. Latent heat of fusion and melting can be used because they have the same magnitude, but opposite signs. Latent heat is the amount of energy required to change the state or phase of a substance. For latent heat, there is no temperature change. The equation is:

E = m(ΔH)

where:
m = mass of substance
ΔH = latent heat of fusion or melting

According to data, the ΔH of mercury is approximately 11.6 kJ/kg.

E = 0.06kg (11.6 kJ/kg) = 0.696 kJ or 696 J

The answer is D. 697.08 J. Note that small differences could be due to rounding off or different data sources.

125 ml of nitrogen gas is collected at 70.0 degrees Celsius. The pressure
dybincka [34]

Answer: Volume of the gas at STP is 22.53 L.

Explanation:

Given : Volume = 125 mL   (as 1 mL = 0.001 L) = 0.125 L

Temperature = 70^{o}C = (70 + 273) K = 343 K

Pressure = 125 kPa = 125 kPa \times \frac{0.01 atm}{1 kPa} = 1.25 atm

According to the ideal gas equation, the volume of given nitrogen gas is calculated as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

1.25 atm \times V = 1 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 343 K\\V = \frac{1 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 343 K}{1.25 atm}\\= \frac{28.1603}{1.25} L\\= 22.53 L

Hence, volume of the gas at STP is 22.53 L.

Calculate average kinetic energy of one mole of gas at 517K
Gekata [30.6K]

In an ideal gas, there are no attractive forces between the gas molecules, and there is no rotation or vibration within the molecules. The kinetic energy of the translational motion of an ideal gas depends on its temperature. The formula for the kinetic energy of a gas defines the average kinetic energy per molecule. The kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), and the temperature is measured in Kelvin (K).

K = average kinetic energy per molecule of gas (J)

kB = Boltzmann's constant ()

T = temperature (k)

Kinetic Energy of Gas Formula Questions:

1) Standard Temperature is defined to be . What is the average translational kinetic energy of a single molecule of an ideal gas at Standard Temperature?

Answer: The average translational kinetic energy of a molecule of an ideal gas can be found using the formula:

The average translational kinetic energy of a single molecule of an ideal gas is  (Joules).

2) One mole (mol) of any substance consists of  molecules (Avogadro's number). What is the translational kinetic energy of  of an ideal gas at ?

Answer: The translational kinetic energy of  of an ideal gas can be found by multiplying the formula for the average translational kinetic energy by the number of molecules in the sample. The number of molecules is  times Avogadro's number:
