Answer:
2C3H8O + 9O2 ==> 6CO2 + 8H2O ... balanced equation
moles propanol = 5.26 g x 1 mol/60.1 g = 0.0875 moles
moles O2 = 31.8 g x 1 mol/31.9 g = 0.997 moles O2
Propanol is limiting based on the mol ratio in balance equation of 2 : 9
To find mass of O2 (excess reagent) left over, we will first find moles O2 used up.
moles O2 used = 0.0875 mol propanol x 9 mol O2/2 mol propanol = 0.394 moles O2 used
moles O2 left over = 0.997 mol - 0.394 mol = 0.603 mol O2 left
mass O2 left = 0.603 mol O2 x 32 g/mol = 19.3 g O2 left over
Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbon, that is they contain hydrogen and carbon without a double or triple bond between the carbon atoms, e.g. ethane, propane. Group 7a in the periodic table are called halogens e.g chlorine, bromine. Alkanes react with halogens in a reaction called substitution, where halogens replace hydrogen atoms in alkanes.
Answer:
When a reversible reaction happens in a closed container, it reaches a dynamic equilibrium . At equilibrium: the forward and backward reactions are still happening. the forward and backward reactions have the same rate of reaction
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
Your strategy here will be to
use the chemical formula of carbon dioxide to find the number of molecules of
CO
2
that would contain that many atoms of oxygen
use Avogadro's constant to convert the number of molecules to moles of carbon dioxide
use the molar mass of carbon dioxide to convert the moles to grams
So, you know that one molecule of carbon dioxide contains
one atom of carbon,

C
two atoms of oxygen,

This means that the given number of atoms of oxygen would correspond to

Now, one mole of any molecular substance contains exactly

In your case, the sample of carbon dioxide molecules contains

Finally, carbon dioxide has a molar mass of

The answer is rounded to two sig figs, the number of sig figs you have for the number of atoms of oxygen present in the sample.
