If 5 L of butane is reacted what volume of carbon dioxide is produced ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Chemistry

Len [333]3 years ago

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.

What are the products obtained in the electrolysis of molten nai?
yanalaym [24]
Answer is: sodium (Na) and iodine (I₂).

<span> First ionic bonds in this salt are separeted because of heat: 
</span>NaI(l) → Na⁺(l) + I⁻(l).

Reaction of reduction at cathode(-): Na⁺(l) + e⁻ → Na(l) /×2.

2Na⁺(l) + 2e⁻ → 2Na(l).

Reaction of oxidation at anode(+): 2I⁻(l) → I₂(l) + 2e⁻.

The anode is positive and the cathode is negative.
