First, determine the number of moles of butane you have. Start with the atomic weights of the involved elements:
Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107
Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999
Molar mass butane = 4*12.0107 + 10*1.00794 = 58.1222 g/mol
Moles butane = 2.20 g / 58.1222 g/mol = 0.037851286
Looking at the balanced equation for the reaction which is
2 C4H10(g)+13 O2(g)→8 CO2(g)+10 H2O(l)
It indicates that for every 2 moles of butane used, 8 moles of carbon dioxide is produced. Simplified, for each mole of butane, 4 moles of CO2 are produced. So let's calculate how many moles of CO2 we have:
0.037851286 mol * 4 = 0.151405143 mol
The ideal gas law is
PV = nRT
where
P = Pressure
V = Volume
n = number of moles
R = Ideal gas constant ( 0.082057338 L*atm/(K*mol) )
T = absolute temperature (23C + 273.15K = 296.15K)
So let's solve the formula for V and the calculate using known values:
PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = (0.151405143 mol) (0.082057338 L*atm/(K*mol))(296.15K)/(1 atm)
V = (3.679338871 L*atm)/(1 atm)
V = 3.679338871 L
So the volume of CO2 produced will occupy 3.68 liters.</span>
To know the answer, compare the oxidation number of the element in the reactant and the product side. The oxidation number of Al was originally +3, then became 0 after the reaction. On the other hand, Fe was originally 0, then became +2 after the reaction. When the element is oxidized, it oxidation number increases. <em>Thus, the element oxidized is Fe.</em>
Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
Because copper is a very good conductor of electricity so it will likely conduct any electricity away from the person.
Answer:
- <u>1. Since the temperature of your body is higher than the temperature of the air and of the water, heat will flow from your body to the air and pool.</u>
<u></u>
- <u>2. The pool feels cooler than air because the water can absorb heat energy faster than the air, due to liquids are better conductors than gases.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Heat always flows from warmer substances to colder ones.
The normal body temperature is 98ºF. Therefore, the heat will flow from your body to the air and pool, which are at a lower temperature of 80ºF. In both cases, you will lose thermal energy and the external parts of your body will cool down.
The difference between both cases is in the heat conduction capacity of both air and water.
Liquids (and solids) are better <em>thermal conductors </em>than gases because the conduction of heat occurs as result of the direct contact between the particles of matter: the atoms or molecules in hot matter vibrate faster than their neighbors and transmit them kinetic energy by direct contact.
Therefore, the liquid water in the swimming pool, at the same temperature than the air, will be able to absorb more heat in the same time from the body.
In conclusion, the body will cool down faster in water than in air which is why the pool feels cooler than air.
