Answer:
81°C.
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we can use the relation:
<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>
where, Q is the amount of heat released from water (Q = - 1200 J).
m is the mass of the water (m = 20.0 g).
c is the specific heat capacity of water (c of water = 4.186 J/g.°C).
ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T = final T - 95.0°C).
∵ Q = m.c.ΔT
∴ (- 1200 J) = (20.0 g)(4.186 J/g.°C)(final T - 95.0°C ).
(- 1200 J) = 83.72 final T - 7953.
∴ final T = (- 1200 J + 7953)/83.72 = 80.67°C ≅ 81.0°C.
<em>So, the right choice is: 81°C.</em>
<h3>Balanced equation :
2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (ℓ)</h3><h3>Further explanation</h3>
Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that have single bonds in chains
General formula for alkanes :
Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (specifically alkanes)
So that the burning of ethane with air (oxygen):
2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) ⟶ 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (ℓ)
or we can use mathematical equations to solve equilibrium chemical equations by giving the coefficients for each compound involved in the reaction
C₂H₆ (g) + aO₂ (g) ⟶ bCO₂ (g) + cH₂O (ℓ)
C : left 2, right b ⇒ b=2
H: left 6, right 2c⇒ 2c=6⇒ c= 3
O : left 2a, right 2b+c⇒ 2a=2b+c⇒2a=2.2+3⇒2a=7⇒a=7/2
It’s charge was neutral due to the equal number of protons and electrons. when it becomes an ion it loses 3 electrons leaving behind only 10. the answer is 10. the equation is +13 +(-10)=+3
