Answer: From the question, the equation which is 2C2H6 + 7O2 --> 4CO2 + 6H2O has the products as 4CO2 + 6H2O( which is carbon dioxide and water)

Explanation:

Chemical reaction is a process in chemistry which leads to the formation of new substances referred to as PRODUCTS from combination of two or more substances called REACTANTS. There are different types of chemical reaction which includes COMBUSTION REACTION that is mostly seen in hydrocarbons.

Ethane is an example of a saturated hydrocarbon ( that is all the four bonds of carbon are single bonds) which undergoes combustion reaction with oxygen molecule. Ethane will burn in air( oxygen) to give off carbon dioxide and water as products of the chemical reaction.

2C2H6 + 7O2 --> 4CO2 + 6H2O

Shane and oxygen is the reactants of the chemical reaction while carbon dioxide and water is the products.

A compound is made up of 80.0 % C and 20.0 % H. Its molar mass is 30.0 g. What is its molecular formula?
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Molecular formula = C₂H₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen = 20.0 %

Percentage of carbon = 80.0 %

Molar mass = 30.0 g  

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 20 / 1.01 = 19.8  

Number of gram atoms of C = 80 /12 = 6.7

Atomic ratio:

            C              :           H            

         6.7/6.7        :        19.8/6.7  

            1               :           3        

C : H = 1 : 3

Empirical formula is CH₃.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula = CH₃ = 12×1 +3×1.01 = 15.03 g/mol

n = 30 g/mol / 15.03 g/mol

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2 (CH₃)

Molecular formula = C₂H₆

Solid aluminum hydroxide reacts with a solution of hydrobromic acid. write a balanced molecular equation and a balanced net ioni
Stolb23 [73]
<span>To find the balanced molecular equation, we need to find the symbols for each element and their charges and then balanced the equation. This comes out to: Al(OH)3(aq) + 3HBR(aq) ---> AlBr3(aq) + 3H2O(l) The net ionic equation is adding the charges and separating them into basic components. Al3+ + 3OH- + 3H+ + 3BR- --> Al3+ + 3Br + H3O+ We can cancel out the aluminum and bromine to get: 3OH-(aq) + 3H+(aq) --> 3H2O(l)</span>

If you have 3 moles of FeCl3, how many moles of MgCl2 can be produced? FeCl3 + Mg --&gt; MgCl2 + Fe
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer: 154.09 g

Explanation:

3 Mg + 2 FeCl3 = 3 MgCl2 + 2 Fe

The mass of MgCl2 produced is calculated:

m MgCl2 = 175 g FeCl3 * (1 mol FeCl3 / 162.2 g) * (3 mol MgCl2 / 2 mol FeCl3) * (95.21 g MgCl2 / 1 mol) = 154.09 g

C. Balance these fossil-fuel combustion reactions. (1 point)
storchak [24]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

C. Balance these fossil-fuel combustion reactions. (1 point)

C8H18(g) + 12.5O2(g) →    ____CO2(g) + 9H2O(g) + heat

CH4(g) + ____O2(g) →     ____CO2(g) + ____H2O(g) + heat

C3H8(g) + ____O2(g) →    ____CO2(g) + ____H2O(g) + heat

C6H6(g) + ____O2(g)  →   ____CO2(g) + ____H2O(g) + heat

Solution :

C8H18(g) + 12.5O2(g) →    __8__CO2(g) + 9H2O(g) + heat

When 1 part of octane reacts with 12.5 parts of oxygen, it gives 8 parts of carbon dioxide and 9 parts of water along with liberation of energy.

CH4(g) + __2__O2(g) →     __1__CO2(g) + __2__H2O(g) + heat

When 1 part of methane reacts with 2 parts of oxygen, it gives 1 part of carbon dioxide and 2 parts of water along with liberation of energy.

C3H8(g) + __5__O2(g) →    __3__CO2(g) + __4__H2O(g) + heat

When 1 part of propane reacts with 5 parts of oxygen, it gives 3 part of carbon dioxide and 4 parts of water along with liberation of energy.

C6H6(g) + __1/2__O2(g)  →   __6__CO2(g) + __3__H2O(g) + heat

When 1 part of propane reacts with 1/2 parts of oxygen, it gives 6 part of carbon dioxide and 3 parts of water along with liberation of energy.
