Answer:

750 g of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ —> 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Next, we shall determine the mass of C₃H₈ that reacted and the mass of CO₂ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of C₃H₈ = (12×3) + (8×1)

= 36 + 8 = 44 g/mol

Mass of C₃H₈ from the balanced equation = 1 × 44 = 44 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (16×2)

= 12 + 32 = 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ = 3 × 44 = 132 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

44 g of C₃H₈ reacted to produce 132 g of CO₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 250 g of C₃H₈. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

44 g of C₃H₈ reacted to produce 132 g of CO₂.

Therefore, 250 g of C₃H₈ will react to produce = (250 × 132)/44 = 750 g of CO₂.

Thus, 750 g of CO₂ were obtained from the reaction.

Carbon exists in nature as three isotopes. Given the atomic masses and relative abundance of the isotopes, what is the average a
Ivan

The most abundant carbon isotope is carbon-12.

The relative atomic mass of carbon is 12.011, which is extremely close to 12.0. This means that the masses C-13, and C-14 are practically negligible when contributing to the relative atomic mass of carbon.

the C-12 isotope makes up 98.9% of carbon atoms, C-13 makes up 1.1% of carbon atoms, and C-14 makes up just a trace of carbon atoms as they are found in nature.

How do you make a 3M solution of KBr? How many moles of KBr are 1 liter of a 0.3M solution?
pashok25 [27]
Molarity= moles/liter, so you would need 3mol KBr/1 liter
(0.3M)(1L)= 0.3mol KBr
