Answer:

Boiling points

Liquid to gas

Explanation:

For distillation, the differences in boiling points of the liquids in the column is utilized for this separation.

The change in matter involved a state change of liquid to vapor or gaseous form.

Distillation is used to separate different liquids in a mixture.
A liquid - liquid mixture is separated into components due to their appreciable boiling point differences.
The method is used for purifying liquids.
The solution is boiled in a distillation flask to vaporization.

What is the total volume of gaseous products formed when 116 liters of butane (C4H10) react completely according to the followin

Contact [7]

Answer: The total volume of the gaseous products is 1044.29 L

Explanation:

We are given:

Volume of butane = 116 L

At STP:

22.4 L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas

So, 116 L of volume will be occupied by = $\frac{1}{22.4}\times 116=5.18mol$ of butane

The chemical equation for the combustion of butane follows:

$2C_4H_{10}(g)+13O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)$

For carbon dioxide:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of butane produces 8 moles of carbon dioxide

So, 5.18 moles of butane will produce = $\frac{8}{2}\times 5.18=20.72mol$ of carbon dioxide

Volume of carbon dioxide at STP = (20.72 × 22.4) = 464.13 L

For water vapor:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of butane produces 10 moles of water vapor

So, 5.18 moles of butane will produce = $\frac{10}{2}\times 5.18=25.9mol$ of water vapor

Volume of water vapor at STP = (25.9 × 22.4) = 580.16 L

Total volume of the gaseous products = [464.13 + 580.16] = 1044.29 L

Hence, the total volume of the gaseous products is 1044.29 L

Picture of gas laws question below:

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Volume of the tank is 5.5 litres.

Explanation:

mass of the CO2 is given 8.6 grams

Pressure of the gas is 89 Kilopascal which is 0.8762 atm

Temperature of the gas is 29 degrees ( 0 degrees +273.5= K) so (29+273)

R = gas constant 0.0821 liter atmosphere per kelvin)

FROM THE IDEAL GAS LAW

PV=nRT ( P Pressure, V Volume, n is number of moles of gas, R gas constant, Temperature in Kelvin)

no of moles = mass/atomic mass

= 8.6/44

= 0.195 moles

now putting the values in equation

V=nRT/P

= 0.195*0.0821*302/ 0.8762

= 5.5 litres.

As the carbon dioxide gas occupies the volume os the tank hence volume of tank is 5.5 litres.
