Answer:

CO2

Explanation:

CO2 or carbon dioxide is produced when iron is extracted from its ore. Carbon monoxide Co is used as reducing agent in iron extraction. In this reaction iron ore is reduced to iron and CO is oxidized to CO2 or carbon dioxide which is released in the process. There extraction of iron is redox reaction.

A system gains 687 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to 156 kJ. How much work is done?

Maslowich

Answer:

w = -531 kJ

1. Work was done by the system.

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Heat gained by the system (q): 687 kJ (By convention, when the system absorbs heat, q > 0).

Change in the internal energy of the system (ΔU°): 156 kJ

Step 2: Calculate the work done (w)

We will use the following expression.

ΔU° = q + w

w = ΔU° - q

w = 156 kJ - 687 kJ

w = -531 kJ

By convention, when w < 0, work is done by the system on the surroundings.

The<br>of a chemical reaction is the maximum amount of product that can be produced

Troyanec [42]

Answer= Maximum amount of product that could be obtained under ideal conditions from a given amount of reactants.

Explanation:

The theoretical yields is the ideal maximum amount of a product that can be produced during a chemical reaction while the limiting reactant is the reactant that determines the maximum amount of product that can be formed. mitgliedd1 and 61 more users found this answer helpful.

How do I do this? What are the answers to the 5 questions shown?

frozen [14]

Answer:

1. C₃H₆O₃

2. C₆H₁₂

3. C₆H₂₄O₆

4. C₆H₆

5. N₂O₄

Explanation:

1. Determination of the molecular formula.

Empirical formula => CH₂O

Mass of compound = 90 g

Molecular formula =?

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula = mass of compound

[CH₂O]ₙ = 90

[12 + (2×1) + 16]n = 90

[12 + 2 + 16]n = 90

30n = 90

Divide both side by 30

n = 90/30

n = 3

Molecular formula = [CH₂O]ₙ

Molecular formula = [CH₂O]₃

Molecular formula = C₃H₆O₃

2. Determination of the molecular formula.

Empirical formula => CH₂

Mass of compound = 84 g

Molecular formula =?

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula = mass of compound

[CH₂]ₙ = 84

[12 + (2×1)]n = 84

[12 + 2]n = 84

14n = 84

Divide both side by 14

n = 84/14

n = 6

Molecular formula = [CH₂]ₙ

Molecular formula = [CH₂]₆

Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂

3. Determination of the molecular formula.

Empirical formula => CH₄O

Mass of compound = 192 g

Molecular formula =?

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula = mass of compound

[CH₄O]ₙ = 192

[12 + (4×1) + 16]n = 192

[12 + 4 + 16]n = 192

32n = 192

Divide both side by 32

n = 192/32

n = 6

Molecular formula = [CH₄O]ₙ

Molecular formula = [CH₄O]₆

Molecular formula = C₆H₂₄O₆

4. Determination of the molecular formula.

Empirical formula => CH

Mass of compound = 78 g

Molecular formula =?

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula = mass of compound

[CH]ₙ = 78

[12 + 1]n = 78

13n = 78

Divide both side by 13

n = 78/13

n = 6

Molecular formula = [CH]ₙ

Molecular formula = [CH]₆

Molecular formula = C₆H₆

5. Determination of the molecular formula.

Empirical formula => NO₂

Mass of compound = 92 g

Molecular formula =?

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula = mass of compound

[NO₂]ₙ = 92

[14 + (2×16)]n = 92

[14 + 32]n = 92

46n = 92

Divide both side by 46

n = 92/46

n = 2

Molecular formula = [NO₂]ₙ

Molecular formula = [NO₂]₂

Molecular formula = N₂O₄
