Why does sawdust burn faster than logs.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Scilla [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

B. Smaller Particles

Explanation:

We know that the rate of reaction increases with increase in the surface area of reactants.

The reacting particles in the log of wood are embedded inside the wood making only very minimal amount of particles available for reaction. This  ultimately slows down the rate of combustion.

However, in saw dust, there is a greater availability of surface area of reactants hence the sawdust burns faster than logs.

What is the volume of 40g of sugar given it’s listed density
lora16 [44]

Answer:

25.157 cm³

Explanation:

Data Given:

Mass of Sugar (m) = 40g

Density of sugar given in literature = 1.59 g/cm³

Volume of Sugar = ?

The formula will be used is

                              d = m/v ........................................... (1)

where

D is density

m is the mass

v is the volume

So

Rearrange the Equation (1)

                              d x v = m

                               v = m/ d         ................................................ (2)

put the given values in Equation  (2)

                       v = 40g / 1.59 g/cm³

                       v = 25.157 cm³

volume of 40 g of sugar = 25.157 cm³

Determine the mass of CO2 gas produced when 8.24 g of NaHCO3 is added to a solution that contains 4.41 g of HCl.
hjlf

The mass of CO₂ gas = 4.312 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

NaHCO₃ (s) + HCl (aq) → NaCl (aq) + H₂O (aq) + CO₂ (g)

Find limiting reactant

mol NaHCO₃

\tt \dfrac{8.24}{84,007 }=0.098

mol HCl

\tt \dfrac{4.41}{36.5}=0.121

Limiting reactant :  NaHCO₃ (smaller)

mol CO₂ = mol NaHCO₃ = 0.098

mass CO₂ :

\tt 0.098\times 44=4.312~g
