Answer: First, here is the balanced reaction: 2C4H10 + 13O2 ===> 8CO2 + 10H2O.

This says for every mole of butane burned 4 moles of CO2 are produced, in other words a 2:1 ratio.

Next, let's determine how many moles of butane are burned. This is obtained by

5.50 g / 58.1 g/mole = 0.0947 moles butane. As CO2 is produced in a 2:1 ratio, the # moles of CO2 produced is 2 x 0.0947 = 0.1894 moles CO2.

Now we need to figure out the volume. This depends on the temperature and pressure of the CO2 which is not given, so we will assume standard conditions: 273 K and 1 atmosphere.

We now use the ideal gas law PV = nRT, or V =nRT/P, where n is the # of moles of CO2, T the absolute temperature, R the gas constant (0.082 L-atm/mole degree), and P the pressure in atmospheres ( 1 atm).

V = 0.1894 x 0.082 x 273.0 / 1 = 4.24 Liters.

Consider this equilibrium reaction between carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas, occurring in a sealed flexible container. CO(g) + 3

wariber [46]

Answer:

More H2(g) is added to the container : Towards products.

CO is removed from the container : Towards reactants.

More CH4(g) is added to the container : Towards reactants

H2O(g) is removed from the container : Towards products.

The contents of the container are heated up. : Towards the reactants.

The contents of the container are cooled down : Towards the products.

The pressure inside the container is increased. :Towards the products

The container is stretched to increase the volume: Towards the reactants.

Explanation: :

CO(g) + 3 H2g) → CH4(g) + H2O(g)+ heat

There is released heat, so this reaction is exothermic

If the H2 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase. Towards products.

If the CO is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. Towards reactants.

If the CH4 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase. Towards reactants

If the H2O is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. Towards products.

If the temperature is increased, the system will reduce the amount of heat released. So the balance will shift to the left. Towards the reactants.

This because the extra heat / energy must be used.

If the temperature is decreased, the system will produce more heat So the balance will shift to the right. Towards the products.

This because more heat /energy needs to be produced to make up for the loss of heat (energy).

If the pressure is increased, the system will shift to the side with fewer moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right. So the balance will shift to the right. Towards the products. An increase of pressure has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the volume.

If the volume is increased, this means the pressure is decreased, the system will shift to the side with most moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right. So the balance will shift to the left. Towards the reactants. An increase of volume has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the pressure.

Water containing large amounts of Mg2+and Ca2+ions is said to be hard because it is hard to make soap lather in the water. True

mafiozo [28]

Answer:True

Explanation:

Water is said to be hard when it contains calcium ions or magnesium ions dissolved in it. These ions are able to react with soap in such a way that the soap is prevented from forming lather with the water. Hard water occurs when water passes over calcium or magnesium bearing minerals and dissolves some of it. Hardness due to the presence of calcium ions can easily be removed by boiling the water.
