6 0

a. 0.137

b. 0.0274

c. 1.5892 g

d. 0.1781

e. 5.6992 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

2 C4H10 + 13O2 -------> 8CO2 + 10H2O

2.46 g of water

Required

moles and mass

Solution

a. moles of water :

2.46 g : 18 g/mol = 0.137

b. moles of butane :

= 2/10 x mol water

= 2/10 x 0.137

= 0.0274

c. mass of butane :

= 0.0274 x 58 g/mol

= 1.5892 g

d. moles of oxygen :

= 13/2 x mol butane

= 13/2 x 0.0274

= 0.1781

e. mass of oxygen :

= 0.1781 x 32 g/mol

= 5.6992 g

Answer:

These are the elements or compounds that enter into a chemical reaction: Reactants

These are the substance(s) formed in a chemical reaction: Products

These are the reactants in the chemical equation C6H1206 +602 --> 6CO2 + 6H20: C6H1206 and 602

These are the reactants in the chemical equation 6 CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H1206 + 6 02: 6 CO2 + 6H2O

These are the reactants in the chemical equation 2 H2 + 02 --> 2 H2O: 2H2 and O2

These are the reactants in the chemical equation 2 H2O --> 2 H2 + O2: 2H2O

Boron sulfide, B2S3(s), reacts violently with water to form dissolved boric acid (H3BO3) and hydrogen sulfide gas.Express your a
ioda

Answer:

Explanation:

From the statement of the problem,

  B₂S₃_{s} + H₂O_{l}  →  H₃BO₃_{aq} + H₂S_{g}

              B₂S₃ + H₂O  →  H₃BO₃ + H₂S

We that the above expression does not conform with the law of conservation of mass:

To obey the law, we need to derive a balanced reaction equation:

   Let us use the mathematical method to obtain a balanced equation.

let the balanced equation be:

                        aB₂S₃ + bH₂O  →  cH₃BO₃ + dH₂S

where a, b, c and d will make the equation balanced.

  Conservating B: 2a = c

                          S: 3a = d

                          H: 2b = 3c + 2d

                           O: b = 3c

   if a = 1,

      c = 2,

      b = 6,

      2d = 2(6) - 3(2) = 6, d = 3

Now we can input this into our equation:

                     B₂S₃ + 6H₂O  →  2H₃BO₃ + 3H₂S

    B₂S₃_{s} + 6H₂O_{l}  →  2H₃BO₃_{aq} + 3H₂S_{g}

Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle? (Not sure if this is chemistry or not lol)
Leni [432]

Answer:

When white glue is in the bottle, there's not enough air inside the bottle to cause the water to evaporate to make the glue sticky. Basically, the bottle holds the glue from the air and keeps the glue from going everywhere.
