Explanation:

Density = 1.60 g/mL

Initial Temperature T1 = 218.0°C + 273 = 491 K (Upon converting to kelvin temperature)

Final Temperature T2 = 750.0°C + 273 = 1023 K (Upon converting to kelvin temperature)

Mass of gas = 1.00 lb = 453.592 g (Upon converting to g)

Final Volume V2 = ?

Initial volume can be obtained from;

Density = Mass / Volume

Volume = Mass / Density

Volume = 453.592 / 1.60 = 283.495 ml

Initial Volume V1 = 283.495 ml

Using charles law;

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

V2 = V1 * T2 / T1

V2 = 283.495 * 1023 / 491

V2 = 590.66 ml

The combustion of palmitic acid is represented by the chemical equation: C16H32O2(s) + 23O2(g) → 16 CO2(g) + 16 H2O(l) The magni

solniwko [45]

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The reaction is

$C_{16}H_{32}O_2(g) + 23O_2(g) \to 16 CO_2(g) + 16 H_2O(l)$

Generally $\Delta H = \Delta U + \Delta N* RT$

Here $\Delta H$ is the change in enthalpy

$\Delta U$ is the change in the internal energy

$\Delta N$ is the difference between that number of moles of product and the number of moles of reactant

Looking at the reaction we can discover that the elements that was consumed and the element that was formed is $O_2$ and $CO_2$ and this are both gases so the change would occur in the number of moles

$\Delta H = \Delta U + [16 -23]* RT$

$\Delta H = \Delta U -7RT$

The negative sign in the equation tell us that the enthalpy $\Delta_r H$ would be less than the Internal energy $\Delta_r U$
