Answer:

Mass of CO₂ produced  = 5.72 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of methane = 2.34 g

Mass of oxygen = 8.32 g

Mass of CO₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂    →      CO₂ + 2H₂O

Number of moles of methane:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles =  2.34 g/ 16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.146 mol

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles =  8.32 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.26 mol

Now we will compare the moles of carbon dioxide with oxygen and methane.

                         CH₄             :              CO₂

                           1                 :              1

                        0.146            :           0.146

                         O₂                :               CO₂

                          2                 :                   1

                     0.26                :              1/2×0.26 = 0.13 mol

Less number of moles of CO₂ are produced by oxygen thus oxygen will react as limiting reactant.

Mass of CO₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.13 mol ×  44 g/mol

Mass = 5.72 g

When adding or subtracting deelmals, how many digits should the answer contain?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Depends, but in most cases, 2.

It's best to use as many digits as possible to keep it accurate.

Explanation:

This varies between teachers, as most schools go with 2 decimal places.

This is something that depends in your situation.

You technically want as many decimals as possible to keep it as accurate, but most people stick with 2.

I personally do 3, and commonly do 5 sometimes.

^{16}_{\phantom{1}8}\text{O}.

Oxygen-16 is the atom in question.

  • Atomic number: 8.
  • Mass number: 16.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

The superscript of the ion says "2-". That means that the ion here carries a charge of -2.

  • The charge is negative, meaning that there are more electrons (which are negative) than protons (which are positive) in that ion.
  • The size of the charge is 2. There are two more electrons than protons in that ion.

There are 10 electrons in total in that ion. There are two more electrons than protons. That means that there are 10 - 2 = 8 protons in that ion.

The atomic number of an atom is the same as its number of protons. The atomic number of X is 8.

The atomic number determines the element. Atomic number 8 is oxygen. Thus element X is oxygen.

Mass number is the sum of number of protons and neutrons in an atom. 8 + 8 = 16 for this atom.
