At a festival, spherical balloons with a radius of 170.cm are to be inflated with hot air and released. The air at the festival

will have a temperature of 25°C and must be heated to 100°C to make the balloons float. 1.00kg of butane C4H10 fuel are available to be burned to heat the air. Calculate the maximum number of balloons that can be inflated with hot air.

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.5 balloons.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, the radius of the spherical balloons is 170 cm. Therefore, the volume of each balloon will be,  

= 4/3 × π × (170)³ cm³

= 20.5176 × 10⁶ cm³  

= 20.5176 m³

The density of air at 100 degree C s 0.946 Kg m⁻³

The mass of air in each balloon can be calculated by using the formula,  

Mass = density × volume

Mass = 0.946 Kg m⁻³ × 20.5176 m³

Mass = 19.410 Kg

The heat energy, that is, required to bring the air from 25 degree C to 100 degree C will be,  

= 19.410 × 10³ g × (100 -25) degree C × 1.009 J/g degree C

= 14.68 × 10⁵ J

The concentration of butane given is 1.00 Kg or 1000 g

The molecular weight of butane is 58.12 g per mole

The moles or n can be calculated by using the formula,  

n = mass / mol.wt

n = 1000 g/58.12 g/mol = 17.20 mol

The formation of enthalpy of butane at 25 degree C is 125.7 × 10³ J/mol. The evolution of heat energy that take place at the time of burning 17.20 moles of butane is,  

= 125.7 × 10³ J/mol × 17.20 mol

= 2.16 × 10⁶ J

The number of balloons that can be inflated with hot air is,  

= 2.16 × 10⁶ J / 14.68 × 10⁵ J per each balloon

= 1.5 balloons

Hence, maximum of 1.5 balloons can be inflated.

What would happen to the following endothermic reaction that is in equilibrium if heat is added? N2O4 (g) Two arrows stacked on
Ber [7]
The reaction N2O4 (g) <--> 2NO2 (g) is endothermic, meaning that it consumes heat to move towards formation of the products.
According to Le Chatelier's Principle, therefore, if heat is added, more product (NO2) will be produced, and equilibrium would shift towards the right side. This is choice 3.

Al + AgNO3 -&gt; Al(NO3)3 + Ag. As a balanced equation​
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Al + 4AgNO3 >>Al(NO3)3+ 3Ag

Explanation:

the number of moles of No3 of the products is 3 therefore we have to balance the reactants by adding 3 before the "AgNO3" which also leades us to adding 3 mols to Ag on the products side
