LiRa [457]3 years ago

Explanation:

Since methane gas is at 1 atm and 273 K, it is at standard temperature and pressure(STP).

One mole of every gas occupies 22.4 dm^3 at STP, and vice versa. So,

22.4 dm^3 at STP of CH4=1 mol=12+4(1)=16 g

0.462 L(0.462 dm^3) at STP of CH4

=(16 g×0.462 dm^3)/22.4 dm^3

=0.33 g

Answer:

Explanation:

$P_1=0.492\:atm\\V_1 = 45.8\:ml\\V_2 = ?\\P_1 = 0.954\:atm\\\\Boyle's Law = P_1V_1 = P_2V_2\\\\Lets \:make\: V \:subject\:of\:the\:formula\\\\\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} = \frac{P_2V_2}{P_2} \\ \\V_2 =\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} \\V_2 = \frac{0.492\times45.8}{0.954}\\ \\V_2 = \frac{22.5336}{0.954} \\\\V_2 = 23.620\\\\V_2 = 23.6$

A solution is made by mixing equal masses of methanol, CH 4 O , and ethanol, C 2 H 6 O . Determine the mole fraction of each com

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Mole fraction of $CH_4O$ = 0.58

Mole fraction of $C_2H_6O$ = 0.42

Explanation:

Let the mass of $CH_4O$ and $C_2H_6O$ = x g

Molar mass of $CH_4O$ = 33.035 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles_{CH_4O}= \frac{x\ g}{33.035\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{CH_4O}=\frac{x}{33.035}\ mol$

Molar mass of $C_2H_6O$ = 46.07 g/mol

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{x\ g}{46.07\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{C_2H_6O}=\frac{x}{46.07}\ mol$

So, according to definition of mole fraction:

$Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac {n_{CH_4O}}{n_{CH_4O}+n_{C_2H_6O}}$

$Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac{\frac{x}{33.035}}{\frac{x}{33.035}+\frac{x}{46.07}}=0.58$

Mole fraction of $C_2H_6O$ = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42

Answer:

so 0.15 moles X 22.4 dm3/mole=3.36 dm3. Next we find the moles of hexane combusted, and then the moles of CO2. Finally, we find the volume of CO2 using the fact that at STP, 1 mole of gas = 22.4 dm3.
