Answer:

the average speed of V_{av} CO_2 is 5.24 ×  104 cm/s

Explanation:

The computation of the average speed of a CO_2 is as follows:

\sqrt{average} =  \sqrt{\frac{8 RT}{\pi M} }

where,

M = Molar mass

V_{av} =  \frac{\sqrt{1}}{M}

Given that

V_{av} \ of\ oxygen= 6.14 \times 10^4 cm/s

The molar mass of oxygen i.e. (MO_2) = 31.9988 g/mol

And, the molar mass of CO_2 is  44.0098 g/mol

Now

\frac{V_{av} CO_2}{V_{av} O_2} = \frac{\sqrt{M_{O2} }}{M_{CO2}}

Now place these values to the above formula

\frac{V_{av}CO_2}{6.14\times 104 cm/s} = \frac{\sqrt{31.9988} }{44.0098}

So,

V_av CO_2 is 5.24 ×  104 cm/s

hence, the average speed of V_{av} CO_2 is 5.24 ×  104 cm/s

What mass of butane in grams is necessary to produce 1.5×103 kj of heat what mass of co2 is produced?
kari74 [83]
The heat of reaction (i.e. combustion) of butane (C_{4} H_{10}) when reacted with oxygen (O_{2})  is -2658 kJ/mol butane, and the chemical reaction is given by: 

C_{4} H_{10} + \frac{13}{2} O_{2} ---> 4 CO_{2}  + 5 H_{2}O

The mass of butane required in the reaction is based on the heat produced by the reaction, which is given to be -1,500 kJ. The minus sign is added because the reaction releases heat (exothermic), which means that the products are in a "lower energy state" than the reactants. 

Dividing this with the heat of reaction per mole of butane reacted would give the number of moles butane required. Then, multiplying the answer with the molar mass of butane which is 58 grams/mole, will give the mass of butane required. 

Moles of butane = [(-1,500 kJ)/(-2658 kJ/mol butane)]
Moles of butane = 0.5643 moles butane

Mass of butane  = 0.5643 moles butane * 58 grams/mol butane
Mass of butane  = 32.73 grams butane

The mass of carbon dioxide (CO_{2}) can be determined by multiplying the moles of butane (C_{4} H_{10}) with the mole ratio of (CO_{2}) produced to the (C_{4} H_{10}) reacted, and then with the molar mass of (CO_{2}), which is 44 grams/mole. 

Mass of carbon dioxide produced 
    = 0.5643 moles butane * [4 moles CO_{2}/ 1 mole C_{4} H_{10}] * 44 grams/mole CO_{2}

Mass of carbon dioxide produced  
    = 99.32 grams CO_{2}

Thus, the mass of butane required is 32.73 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the reaction of this amount of butane is 99.32 grams.

Which is more likely in a settled and sedentary community?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Mar 29, 2015 · Their settlements are much more permanent and include houses, storage buildings, etc. They also need preservation methods and storage techniques, unlike the nomads. Sedentary Societies were first to be seen near waterways such as rivers.

A mixture of methane and air is capable of being ignited only if the mole percent of methane is between 5% and 15%. A mixture co
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The air 9% mole% methane have an average molecular weight of:

9%×16,04g/mol + 91%×29g/mol = 27,8g/mol

And a flow of 700000g/h÷27,8g/mol = 25180 mol/h

In the reactor where methane solution and air are mixed:

In = Out

Air balance:

91% air×25180 mol/h + 100% air×X = 95%air×(X+25180)

Where X is the flow rate of air in mol/h = <em>20144 mol air/h</em>

<em></em>

The air in the product gas is

95%×(20144 + 25180) mol/h = 43058 mol air× 21%O₂ = 9042 mol O₂ ×32g/mol = <em>289 kg O₂</em>

43058 mol air×29g/mol <em>1249 kg air</em>

Percent of oxygen is: \frac{289kg}{1249 kg} =<em>0,231 kg O₂/ kg air</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

How many moles of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas?
tino4ka555 [31]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 340.0 moles  of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

CO₂ + 4 H₄  → CH₄ + 2 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • CO₂: 1 mole
  • H₄: 4 moles  
  • CH₄: 1 mole
  • H₂O: 2 moles

<h3>Moles of CH₄ formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of CO₂ form 4 moles of CH₄, 85.1 moles of CO₂ form how many moles of CH₄?

moles of CH_{4} =\frac{85.1 moles of CO_{2}x4 moles of CH_{4} }{1 moles of CO_{2}}

<u><em>moles of CH₄= 340.4 moles</em></u>

Then, 340.0 moles  of methane are produced when 85.1 moles of carbon dioxide gas react with excess hydrogen gas

The mechanism for producing a concentrated urine involves all of the following except
avanturin [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is "obligatory water reabsorption in the proximal convoluted tubule".

Explanation:

The mechanism for producing concentrated urine cannot include the obligatory reabsorption of water in the proximal convoluted tubule since this process is part of the nephron, the system that filters the blood. Glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed almost entirely, as are approximately 70% of filtered potassium and 80% of bicarbonate.

Have a nice day!
