The bonds between C and O are double bonds, because Carbon has to make 4 bonds in prefer to satisfy the octet rule and have 8 electrons in its outer shell. There are 2 double bonds

O=C=O

If 40 grams of pentane are burned, how many grams of oxygen are needed ?
Helga [31]
1) Molar mass C5H12= 5*12 +1 *12=60+12=72 g/mol
2) 40g C5H12 * 1 mol C5H12/72 g C5H12 = 40/72 mol C5H12
 3)                              C5H12 + 8O2 ------> 5CO2 + 6H2O
by reaction                 1 mol      8 mol
from problem             40/72 mol  x mol

x=(40/72) * 8/1=(40*8)/72=(40)/9 mol O2
4) M(O2)=2*16 g/mol =32 g/mol
5) (40)/9 mol O2 *(32 g O2/ 1 mol )=(40 * 32)/9 =142.2 g O2

What is the correct defination for carbon tetrachloride
V125BC [204]

B - CCL4

This is because it doesn't say Dicarbon or any of that sort, so Carbon is alone. This immediately eiminates the option of C.

A is incorrect as it has Chlorine first rather than Carbon, so that's also incorrect.

D is incorrect as 7 is hepta rather than tetra.

The list is as so;

Mono - 1; Di - 2; Tri - 3; Tetra - 4; Penta - 5; Hexa - 6; Hepta - 7; Octa - 8; Nona - 9; Deca - 10.

Hope this helps!

The formation of nitryl fluoride, 2no2(g)+f2(g)⇌2no2f(g) is first order in no2 and first order in f2. if the concentration of no
ra1l [238]
The reaction is:

2 NO₂ (g) + F₂ (g) ⇆  2 NO₂F (g)

The stoichiometric coefficients of the substances balance out each other to obey the Law of Definite Proportions. Now, you have to note that determining the reaction rate expression is specific to a certain type of reaction. So, this are determined empirically through doing experiments. But in chemical reaction engineering, to make things simple, you assume that the reaction is elementary. This means that the order of a reaction with respect to a certain substance follows their individual stoichiometric coefficients. What I'm saying is, the stoichiometric coefficients are the basis of our reaction rate orders. For this reaction, the rate order is 2 for NO₂, 1 for F₂ and 2 for NO₂F. When the forward and reverse reactions are in equilibrium, then it applies that:

Reaction rate of disappearance of reactants = Reaction rate of formation of products.

Therefore, we can have two reaction rate constants for this. But since the conditions manipulated are the reactant side, let's find the expression for reaction rate of disappearance of reactants.

-r = k[NO₂]²[F₂]

The negative sign before r signifies the rate of disappearance. If it were in terms of the product, that would have been positive. The term k denotes for the reaction rate constant. That is also empirical. As you can notice the stoichiometric coefficients are exponents of the concentrations of the reactants. Let's say initially, there are 1 M of NO₂ and 1 M of F₂. Then,

-r = k(1)²(1)
-r = k

Now, if we change 1 M of NO₂ by increasing it to its half, it would now be 1.5 M NO₂. Then, if we quadruple the concentration of F₂, that would be 4 M F₂. Substituting the values:

-r = k(1.5)²(4)
-r = 9k

So, as you can see the reaction rate increase by a factor of 9.
