Answer:

There is 9.6 grams of CO2 produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of methane = 5.50 grams

Molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 13.9 grams

Molar mass of oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The reaction

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Step 3: Calculate number of moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles methane = 5.50 grams / 16.04 g/mol

Moles methane = 0.343 moles

Moles oxygen = 13.9 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 0.434 moles

For 1 mol CH4 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol CO2 and 2 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely react (0.434 moles).

There will react 0.434/2 = 0.217 moles CH4

There will remain 0.343-0.217 = 0.126 moles CH4

There will be produced 0.434 moles of H2O and

0.434/2 =0.217 moles of CO2

Step 4: Calculate mass of products

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass CO2 = 0.217 moles ¨44.01 g/mol

Mass CO2 = 9.6 grams

Mass H2O = 0.434 moles * 18.02

Mass H2O = 7.8 grams

Which of the following gases will have the highest velocity at a given temperature?
gladu [14]

The velocity of the gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gass. Heavier molecules tend to travel slow compared to light molecules. Among these, He has the lowest molar mass of 4 g/mol hence this element has the greatest velocity among all molecules given.

How many milliliters of 0.260 m na2s are needed to react with 35.00 ml of 0.315 m agno3?
allochka39001 [22]

The complete balanced chemical reaction is:

2 AgNO3 + Na2S --> 2 NaNO3 + Ag2S

 

First let us calculate the number of moles of AgNO3.

moles AgNO3 = 0.315 M * 0.035 L

moles AgNO3 = 0.011025 mol

 

From the reaction, 1 mole of Na2S is needed for every 2 moles of AgNO3 hence:

moles Na2S required = 0.011025 mol AgNO3 * (1 mol Na2S / 2 mol AgNO3)

moles Na2S required = 5.5125 x 10^-3 mol

 

Therefore volume required is:

volume Na2S = 5.5125 x 10^-3 mol / 0.260 M

<span>volume Na2S = 0.0212 L = 21.2 mL</span>

Calculate the [OH-]<br> [H+]=0.000025
Harman [31]

Explanation:

There are several ways to define acids and bases, but pH and pOH refer to hydrogen ion concentration and hydroxide ion concentration, respectively. The "p" in pH and pOH stands for "negative logarithm of" and is used to make it easier to work with extremely large or small values. pH and pOH are only meaningful when applied to aqueous (water-based) solutions. When water dissociates it yields a hydrogen ion and a hydroxide.
