harkovskaia [24]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

3 is the coefficient of oxygen.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

CH₃OH + O₂      →     CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

2CH₃OH + 3O₂      →     2CO₂ + 4H₂O

The given reaction is combustion reaction. In this reaction methanol is burn in the presence of oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water.

The balance equation show reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

In an equimolar mixture of o2 and n2, are the mass fractions equal?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The mass fraction is defined as:

w_{i}=\frac{m_{i} }{m_{t} }

where:

  • wi: mass fraction of the substance i
  • mi: mass of the substance i
  • mt: total mass of the system

<u><em>The mass fraction of two substances (A and B), will be the same, ONLY if the mass of the substance A (mA) is the same as the mass of the substance B (mB).</em></u>

An equimolar mixutre of O2 and N2 has the same amount of moles of oxygen and nitrogen, just to give an example let's say that the system has 1 mole of O2 and 1 mole of N2. Then using the molecuar weigth of each of them we can calculate the mass:

mA= 1 mole of O2 * 16 g/1mol = 16 g

mB=1 mole of N2 *28 g/1mol=28 g

As mA≠mB then the mass fractions are not equal, so the answear is NO.

4. Finally, convert hemoglobin concentration from g/dL to millimoles per Liter (milliMolar or mM). Hemoglobin has a molecular we
prohojiy [21]

To make 1 Molar solution of hemoglobin ; 1600 grams of hemoglobin will be dissolved in 1 liter of water

The molecular weight of Hemoglobin is approximately  16,000 Daltons, when hemoglobin is converted to mM

16000 Dalton = 16000 ( g/mol )

given that 1 Dalton = 1 g/mol

To make 1 molar solution of hemoglobin using 1 liter of water

1 liter = 1000 grams

16000 Dalton = 16000 g/mol

Hence 16,000 grams of Hemoglobin is required to make 1 Molar solution of hemoglobin using 1 liter of water.
