Data Given:
Time = t = ?
Current = I = 10 A
Faradays Constant = F = 96500
Chemical equivalent = e = 107.86/1 = 107.86 g
Amount Deposited = W = 17.3 g
Solution:
According to Faraday's Law,
W = I t e / F
Solving for t,
t = W F / I e
Putting values,
t = (17.3 g × 96500) ÷ (10 A × 107.86 g)
t = 1547.79 s
t = 1.54 × 10³ s
Answer:
To release 7563 kJ of heat, we need to burn 163.17 grams of propane
Explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: Data given
C3H8 + 5O2 -----------> 3CO2 + 4H2O ΔH° = –2044 kJ
This means every mole C3H8
Every mole of C3H8 produces 2044 kJ of heat when it burns (ΔH° is negative because it's an exothermic reaction)
<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the number of moles to produce 7563 kJ of heat
1 mol = 2044 kJ
x mol = 7563 kJ
x = 7563/2044 = 3.70 moles
To produce 7563 kJ of heat we have to burn 3.70 moles of C3H8
<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate mass of propane
Mass propane = moles * Molar mass
Mass propane = 3.70 moles * 44.1 g/mol
Mass propane = 163.17 grams
To release 7563 kJ of heat, we need to burn 163.17 grams of propane
