teachers in his school and found that his hypothesis was false. Should Jeremy consider his hypothesis useful?
A.
No; a false hypothesis makes a scientist look silly.
B.
No; false hypotheses are a waste of time.
C.
Yes; a false hypothesis gives a scientist new information to use.

2. What is the molarity of a HCl solution containing 1.2 grams of hydrochloric acid in 0.025 L of solution?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1.3M

Explanation:

Convert from grams to moles:

molar mass of HCl = 1.01g(molar mass of H) + 35.45g(molar mass of Cl) = 36.46g HCl

1.2g HCl (1mol HCl/36.46g HCl)

= .0329 mol HCl

Molarity = mol/L (important formula for concentration)

Plug your values in:

Molarity = .0329mol/.025L

1.317M - but you used two significant figures in the question, so:

1.3M

When backpacking in the wilderness, hikers often boil water to sterilize it for drinking. Suppose that you are planning a backpa
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

2.104 L fuel

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of water = 35 L = 35 × 10³ mL

initial temperature of water = 25.0 ° C

The amount of heat needed to boil water at this temperature can be calculated by using the formula:

q_{boiling} = mc \Delta T

where

specific heat   of water c= 4.18 J/g° C

q_{boiling} = 35 \times 10^{3} \times \dfrac{1.00 \ g}{1 \ mL} \times 4.18  \ J/g^0 C \times (100 - 25)^0 C

q_{boiling} = 10.9725 \times 10^6 \ J

Also; Assume that the fuel has an average formula of C7 H16 and 15% of the heat generated from combustion goes to heat the water;

thus the heat of combustion can be determined via the expression

q_{combustion} =-  \dfrac{q_{boiling}}{0.15}

q_{combustion} =-  \dfrac{10.9725 \times 10^6 J}{0.15}

q_{combustion} = -7.315 \times 10^{7} \ J

q_{combustion} = -7.315 \times 10^{4} \ kJ

For heptane; the equation for its combustion reaction can be written as:

C_7H_{16} + 11O_{2(g)} -----> 7CO_{2(g)}+ 8H_2O_{(g)}

The standard enthalpies of the  products and the reactants are:

\Delta H _f   \ CO_{2(g)} = -393.5 kJ/mol

\Delta H _f   \ H_2O_{(g)} = -242 kJ/mol

\Delta H _f   \ C_7H_{16 }_{(g)} = -224.4 kJ/mol

\Delta H _f   \ O_{2{(g)}} = 0 kJ/mol

Therefore; the standard enthalpy for this combustion reaction is:

\Delta H ^0= \sum n_p\Delta H^0_{f(products)}- \sum n_r\Delta H^0_{f(reactants)}

\Delta H^0 =( 7  \ mol ( -393.5 \ kJ/mol)  + 8 \ mol (-242 \ kJ/mol) -1 \ mol( -224.4 \ kJ/mol) - 11  \ mol  (0 \ kJ/mol))

\Delta H^0 = (-2754.5 \ \  kJ -  1936 \ \  kJ+224.4 \  \ kJ+0 \ \  kJ)

\Delta H^0 = -4466.1 \ kJ

This simply implies that the amount of heat released from 1 mol of C7H16 = 4466.1 kJ

However the number of moles of fuel required to burn 7.315 \times 10^{4} \ kJ heat released is:

n_{fuel} = \dfrac{q}{\Delta \ H^0}

n_{fuel} = \dfrac{-7.315 \times 10^{4} \ kJ}{-4466.1  \ kJ}

n_{fuel} = 16.38  \ mol \ of \ C_7 H_{16

Since number of moles = mass/molar mass

The  mass of the fuel is:

m_{fuel } = 16.38 mol \times 100.198 \ g/mol}

m_{fuel } = 1.641 \times 10^{3} \ g

Given that the density of the fuel is = 0.78 g/mL

and we know that :

density = mass/volume

therefore making volume the subject of the formula in order to determine the volume of the fuel ; we have

volume of the fuel = mass of the fuel / density of the fuel

volume of the fuel = \dfrac{1.641 \times 10^3 \ g }{0.78  g/mL} \times \dfrac{L}{10^3 \ mL}

volume of the fuel  = 2.104 L fuel

2C2H2(g)+5O2(g)=4CO2(g)+2H2O(g)
balandron [24]

The volume of ethyne, C₂H₂ required to produce 12 moles of CO₂ assuming the reaction is at STP is 134.4 L

<h3>Balanced equation</h3>

2C₂H₂(g) + 5O₂(g) --> 4CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of CO₂ were produced by 2 moles of C₂H₂

<h3>How to determine the mole of C₂H₂ needed to produce 12 moles of CO₂</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of CO₂ were produced by 2 moles of C₂H₂

Therefore,

12 moles of CO₂ will be produce by = (12 × 2) / 4 = 6 moles of C₂H₂

<h3>How to determine the volume (in L) of C₂H₂ needed at STP</h3>

At standard temperature and pressure (STP),

1 mole of C₂H₂ = 22.4 L

Therefore,

6 moles of C₂H₂ = 6 × 22.4

6 moles of C₂H₂ = 134.4 L

Thus, we can conclude that the volume of C₂H₂ needed for the reaction at STP is 134.4 L
