Answer:

6.5 moles of Oxygen are required

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

CH3OH + 1/2 O2 → CH2O + H2O

1 mole of methanol reacts with 1/2 moles O2 to produce 1 mole of formaldehyde and 1 mole of water.

Thus, to produe 13 moles of formaldehyde, CH2O, are needed:

13 moles CH2O * (1/2mol O2 / 1mol CH2O) =

<h3>6.5 moles of Oxygen are required</h3>

c) the salt solubility decreases with temperature.

Salts usually dissolve in water at a given temperature. When water cannot dissolve anymore salt at that same temperature, it is known as a saturation point. With most substances the solubility increases with increase in temperature. Same is the case for a salt like potassium nitrate. With increase in temperature the ability of it to dissolve in water increases. And so with decrease in temperature, the solubility decreases.

A certain compound was found to have the molecular formula C5H12O2. To which of the following compound classes could the compoun

IgorC [24]

Answer : The given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

Explanation :

The chemical formula of the given compound is, $C_5H_{12}O_2$

First we have to calculate the degree of unsaturation.

Formula used:

Degree of unsaturation = $\frac{2C+2+N-X-H}{2}$

where,

C = number of carbon

H = number of hydrogen

N = number of nitrogen

X = number of halogen

Degree of unsaturation = $\frac{2\times 5+2+0-0-12}{2}=0$

The degree of unsaturation is, 0 that means there is no double or triple bond in the compound only single bond is present between the atoms.

Thus, the given compound belongs to ether and alcohol.

what is the mass of water vapor produced when 3.2 liters reacts with 8.7 liters of oxygen gas at STP?

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

2.57g

Explanation:

First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2H2 + O2 —> 2H2O

Next let us determine the limiting reactant. This is achieved as follows:

From the equation,

2L H2 required 1L of O2.

Therefore, 3.2L of H will require = 3.2/2 = 1.6L of O2

From the calculation above, O2 is excess because the volume of O2 given from the question is far greater than the volume of O2 obtained from our calculation. Therefore, H2 is the limiting reactant.

Now let us covert 3.2L of H2 to mole. This is illustrated below:

1mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at stp

Therefore, Xmol of H2 will occupy 3.2L i.e

Xmol of H2 = 3.2/22.4 = 0.143mol

From the equation,

2moles of H2 produced 2moles of H2O.

Therefore, 0.143mol of H2 will also produce 0.143moles of H2O.

Now, we can obtain the mass of the water vapour produced by convert 0.143mol of H2O to gram. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18g/mol

Number of mole of H2O = 0.143mol

Mass of H2O =?

Mass = mole x Molar Mass

Mass of H2O = 0.143 x 18 = 2.57g

The mass of water vapour produce is 2.57g
