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.
Answer:
A is denser than B as it's volume for the same mass is smaller.
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, we first need to take into account that the density of each metal A and B is computed by dividing the mass over the volume of each metal which is actually computed by substracting the volume of water from the volume of the water and the solid:

Next, we compute the densities as shown below:

In such a way, A is denser is B as it's volume for the same mass is smaller.
Best regards.
Which two solutions, when mixed together, will undergo a double replacement reaction and form a white, solid substance?
1. NaCl(aq) and LiNO3(aq)
2. KCl(aq) and AgNO3(aq) answer
3. KCl(aq) and LiCL(aq)
4. NaNO3(aq) and AgNO3(aq)
2 is the answer because AgCl is formed and that is a white ppt.
Answer:
3.5 atm
Explanation:
As stated in the question pressure is required to counteract the natural tendency for water to dilute the more concentrated solution. The difference in concentrations will give us the answer using the osmotic pressure equation.
π = ( n/v) RT where n/v is the molarity (mol/L), R is the gas constant and T is the temperature.
The difference in osmotic pressure of the solutions is:
Δπ = Δ c RT where c is the difference in molar concentrations.
pressure required = Δπ = (0.190 - 0.048) M x 0.821 Latm/Kmol x 298 K
= 3.47 atm
Answer:
Explanation:
Given : Density - 2.41 g/liter
Temperature - 25° C
Pressure : 770 mm Hg
R = 0.0821 L atm mol-¹K-¹
Find : Molecular mass of gas
Solution : Ideal gas equation with respect to density will be : PM = dRT. In the formula, P is pressure, M is molecular mass, d is density, R is gas constant and T is temperature.
Keeping the values in equation-
Pressure : 770 mm Hg = 1 atm
Temperature : 273 + 25 = 298 K
M = dRT/P
M = (2.41*0.0821*298)/1
M = 58.96 gram/mol
Thus, the molecular mass of gas is 58.96 gram/mol.
