Answer:
0.665 moles of CO₂
Explanation:
The balance chemical equation for the combustion of Ethane is as follow:
2 C₂H₆ + 7 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 6 H₂O
Step 1: <u>Calculate moles of C₂H₆ as;</u>
Moles = Mass / M.Mass
Putting values,
Moles = 10.0 g / 30.07 g/mol
Moles = 0.3325 moles
Step 2: <u>Calculate Moles of CO₂ as;</u>
According to balance chemical equation,
2 moles of C₂H₆ produced = 4 moles of CO₂
So,
0.3325 moles of C₂H₆ will produce = X moles of CO₂
Solving for X,
X = 0.3325 mol × 4 mol ÷ 2 mol
X = 0.665 moles of CO₂
<span>E=hν</span> where E is the energy of a single photon, and ν is the frequency of a single photon. We recall that a photon traveling at the speed of light c and a frequency ν will have a wavelength λ given by <span>λ=<span>cν</span></span>λ will have an energy given by <span>E=<span><span>hc</span>λ</span></span><span>λ=657</span> nm. This will be <span>E=<span><span>(6.626×<span>10<span>−34</span></span>)(2.998×<span>108</span>)</span><span>(657×<span>10<span>−9</span></span>)</span></span>=3.0235×<span>10<span>−19</span></span>J</span>
So we now know the energy of one photon of wavelength 657 nm. To find out how many photons are in a laser pulse of 0.363 Joules, we simply divide the pulse energy by the photon energy or <span>N=<span><span>E<span>pulse </span></span><span>E<span>photon</span></span></span>=<span>0.363<span>3.0235×<span>10<span>−19</span></span></span></span>=1.2×<span>1018</span></span>So there would be <span>1.2×<span>1018</span></span><span> photons of wavelength 657 nm in a pulse of laser light of energy 0.363 Joules.</span>
