Answer:

b. 23.3g

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

To find the mass of CO2 produced we must find, as first, the limiting reactant. With limiting reactant we can find the moles and the mass of CO2 as follows:

<em>Limiting reactant:</em>

For a complete reaction of 0.53 moles of CH4 are necessaries:

0.53 moles CH4 * (2mol O2 / 1mol CH4) = 1.06 moles O2.

As there are 1.5 moles, CH4 is limiting reactant.

<em>Moles CO2:</em>

1 mole of CH4 produce 1 mole of CO2. That means the moles of CO2 formed are 0.53 moles.

<em>Mass CO2 (Molar mass: 44.01g/mol)</em>

0.53 moles CO2 * (44.01g / mol) =

b. 23.3g

The concentration in molality of hcl in a solution that is prepared by dissolving 5.5 g of hcl in 200.0 g of c2h6o is __________
PIT_PIT [208]

Molality is one way of expressing concentration of a solute in a solution. It is expressed as the mole of solute per kilogram of the solvent. To calculate for the molality of the given solution, we need to convert the mass of solute into moles and divide it to the mass of the solvent.

<span>
Moles of HCl = 5.5 g HCl ( 1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl ) = 0.1509 mol HCl</span>

<span>
Molality = 0.1509 mol HCl / 200 g C2H6O ( 1 kg / 1000 g )
Molality = 0.7543 mol / kg</span>


<span>The concentration in molality of hcl in a solution that is prepared by dissolving 5.5 g of hcl in 200.0 g of c2h6o is 0.7453 molal.</span>

Complete combustion of 8.10 g of a hydrocarbon produced 25.9 g of CO2 and 9.27 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
balu736 [363]

CxHy     +  O2    -->    x CO2     +    y/2  H2O

 

Find the moles of CO2 :     18.9g  /  44 g/mol   =    .430 mol CO2   = .430 mol of C in compound

Find the moles of H2O:      5.79g / 18 g/mol     =     .322 mol H2O   = .166 mol of H in compound

 

Find the mass of C and H in the compound:

                             .430mol  x 12  =  5.16 g C

                              .166mol  x 1g   = .166g H   

 

When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.

Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).

In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).

238,2U --&gt; 234Th +<br> 90
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

\\_{2}^{4} \alpha

Explanation:

In this question, we wish to find the missing nuclei for the equation:

\\_{92}^{238} U\rightarrow _{90}^{234} Th + _{Z}^{A} X

In order to find the missing species, we need to use the charge and mass balance law. That is, the mass should be conserved: the total mass on the left-hand side with respect to the arrow should be equal to the total mass on the right-hand side with respect to the arrow:

238 = 234 + A

Notice from here that:

A = 238 - 234 = 4

So far we know that the mass of X is 4. Similarly, we apply the law of charge conservation. The total charge should be conserved:

92=90+Z

From here:

Z = 92-90=2

We have a particle:

\\_{2}^{4} X

Looking at the periodic table, an atom with Z = 2 corresponds to helium. This can also be written as an alpha particle:

\\_{2}^{4} \alpha
