Acetylene gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen gas, producing
disa [49]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Acetylene C_2H_2 gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen O_2 gas, producing carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 1.5 mol of carbon dioxide. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: 1.9 moles of oxygen are needed to produce 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced reaction for combustion of acetylene is:

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

According to stoichiometry;

4 moles of carbon dioxide are produced by = 5 moles of oxygen

Thus 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide are produced by =\frac{5}{4}\times 1.5=1.9 moles of oxygen

Thus 1.9 moles of oxygen are needed to produce 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide.

Trichloroethylene, a widely used degreasing solvent for machine parts, is produced in a two-step reaction sequence. Ethylene is
solmaris [256]

Answer:

ΔH°C2H2Cl4(l) = -333,36 kJ/mol

ΔH°r₂ = -35,14 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The ΔH°r of the first reaction is:

ΔH°r = -385,76 kJ/mol = (ΔH°C2H2Cl4(l) + ΔH°H2(g)) - (ΔH°C2H4(g) + 2ΔHCl2 (g))

ΔH°H2(g) = 0 kJ/mol

ΔH°C2H4(g) = 52,4 kJ/mol

Δ°HCl2 (g) = 0 kJ/mol

Replacing:

ΔH°C2H2Cl4(l) = -385,76 kJ/mol + 52,4 kJ/mol = <em>-333,36 kJ/mol</em>

The standard heat of the second reaction is:

ΔH°r₂ = ΔH°C2HCl3(l) + ΔH°HCl(g) - ΔH°C2H2Cl4(l)

Where:

ΔH°C2HCl3(l) = -276,2 kJ/mol; ΔH°HCl(g) = -92,3 kJ/mol; ΔH°C2H2Cl4(l) = -333,36 kJ/mol

Replacing:

ΔH°r₂ = -276,2 kJ/mol -92,3 kJ/mol + 333,36 kJ/mol

<em>ΔH°r₂ = -35,14 kJ/mol</em>

<em></em>

The specific heat capacity of a certain type of cooking oil is 1.75 J/(g⋅∘C). What is the amount of heat exchanged when the temp
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Q = -811440 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oil = 2.76 Kg (2.76× 1000 = 2760 g)

Initial temperature = 191 °C

Final temperature = 23°C

Specific heat capacity of oil = 1.75 J/g.°C

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 23°C - 191 °C

ΔT = -168°C

Q = 2760 g ×1.75 J/g.°C  ×-168°C

Q = -811440 J

Negative sign show heat is released.

How many grams are needed to make 2 L of solution of 4 M LiNO3?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

552 g of LiNO₃

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of solution = 2 L

Molarity of LiNO₃ = 4 M

Mass of LiNO₃ =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of LiNO₃ in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of solution = 2 L

Molarity of LiNO₃ = 4 M

Mole of LiNO₃ =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

4 = mole of LiNO₃ / 2

Cross multiply

Mole of LiNO₃ = 4 × 2

Mole of LiNO₃ = 8 moles

Finally, we shall determine the mass of of LiNO₃ needed to prepare the solution. This is can be obtained as follow:

Mole of LiNO₃ = 8 moles

Molar mass of LiNO₃ = 7 + 14 + (16×3)

= 7 + 14 + 48

= 69 g/mol

Mass of LiNO₃ =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

8 = Molar mass of LiNO₃ /69

Cross multiply

Molar mass of LiNO₃ = 8 × 69

Molar mass of LiNO₃ = 552 g

Thus, 552 g of LiNO₃ is needed to prepare the solution.
