A mixture of c2h2 and ch4 has a total mass of 230.9 g. when this mixture reacts completely with excess oxygen, the co2 and h2o p
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Interesting problem. Thanks for posting.

C2H2 + (3/2)02 ====>  H2O + 2CO2
CH4 +  2O2 =====> 2H2O + CO2

The molar mass of C2H2 = 2*12 + 2*1 = 26
The molar mass of CH4 = 1*12 + 4*1 = 16

The number of moles of C2H2 = x
The number of moles of  CH4 = y
26x + 16y = 230.9 grams

For water we get (from the C2H2). Water has a molar mass of 2*1 + 16 = 18

x*18 See the balanced equation to see what it is the same number of moles as C2H2
From the methane we get
y*18
2*y* 18. Again see the balanced equation to see where that 2 came from.
18x + 36y is the total amount of water. 

Now for the CO2. CO2 has a molar mass of 12 + 2*16 = 44
From C2H2  we get 2*44*x = 88x grams of CO2
From CH4 we get 1*y*44 grams of CO2
88x + 44y for CO2

Now we total to get the grand total of water and CO2
18x + 44y + 88x + 44y = 972.7 grams total.
106x + 88y =  972.7

Two equations, two unknowns, we should be able to solve this problem
26x + 16y = 230.9
106x + 88y = 972.7

I'm not going to go through the math unless you request me to do so. 
x = 8.03 moles
y = 1.38 moles 

The initial amount of C2H2 was 8.03 * 26 = 208.78
The initial amount of CH4 was 16*1.38 = 22.08
The total (as a check is 230.86 which is pretty close to the given amount.
So Methane's mass in the initial givens was 22.08 grams.

Calculate the number of hydrogen atoms in 33.0 g CH4
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The number of hydrogen atoms is 4.96x10²⁴.

 

Explanation:

The number of atoms can be found with the following equation:

n = N*\eta_{H}

Where:

N: is the Avogadro's number = 6.022x10²³ atoms/mol

η: is the number of moles of hydrogen

n: is the number of hydrogen atoms

First, we need to find the number of hydrogen moles. The number of moles of CH₄ is:

\eta_{CH_{4}} = \frac{m}{M}

Where:

m: is the mass of methane = 33 g

M: is the molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mol                      

\eta_{CH_{4}} = \frac{33 g}{16.04 g/mol} = 2.06 mol

Now, since we have 4 hydrogen atoms in 1 mol of methane, the number of moles of hydrogen is:

\eta_{H} = 2.06\: mol\: CH_{4}*4 \frac{mol\: H}{mol \: CH_{4}} = 8.24 mol

Hence, the number of hydrogen atoms is:

n = N*\eta_{H} = 6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \: atoms/mol*8.24 mol = 4.96 \cdot 10^{24} atoms

Therefore, the number of hydrogen atoms is 4.96x10²⁴.

I hope it helps you!

The burning of a sample of propane generated 1 04.6 kJ of heat. All of this heat was used to heat 500.0 g of water that had an i
Paul [167]

Answer: 70.0°C

Explanation:

Quantity of heat = Mass * Specific heat * Change in temperature

Quantity of heat = 104.6 KJ

Mass = 500.0 g

Specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C

Change in temperature assuming final temperature is x = x - 20

Units should be in grams and joules:

104,600 = 500 * 4.18 * (x - 20)

104,600 = 2,090 * (x - 20)

x - 20 = 104,600/2,090

x = 104,600/2,090 + 20

x = 69.8

= 70.0°C

Find the % composition for each element in Zn(CIO3)2
bezimeni [28]

Zn = 28.15%

Cl = 30.53%

O = 41.32%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Zn(CIO3)2 compound

Required

The % composition

Solution

Ar Zn = 65.38

Ar Cl = 35,453

Ar O = 15,999

MW Zn(CIO3)2 = 232.3

Zn = 65,38/232.3 x 100% = 28.15%

Cl = (2 x 35.453) / 232.3 x 100% = 30.53%

O = (6 x 15.999) / 232.3 x 100% = 41.32%
