Imagine a chemist is in the lab and trying to make some chemical reactions happen. In one reaction she reacts chemicals in an exothermic reaction and there is an increase in entropy. A second chemical reaction she is trying to run is endothermic and there is a decrease in entropy. Which of the two reactions is more likely to occur and why?
Answer:
The answer to your question is 0.4 moles of Oxygen
Explanation:
Data
Octane (C₈H₈)
Oxygen (O₂)
Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
Water (H₂O)
moles of water = ?
moles of Oxygen = 1
Balanced chemical reaction
C₈H₈ +10O₂ ⇒ 8CO₂ + 4H₂O
Reactant Element Products
8 C 8
8 H 8
20 O 20
Use proportions to solve this problem
10 moles of Oxygen ----------------- 4 moles of water
1 mol of Oxygen ------------------ x
x = (4 x 1) / 10
x = 4 / 10
x = 0.4 moles of water
Explanation:
elements are based on electrical conductivity
Yes, it is a special case of enthalpy of neutralization.
The enthalpy of neutralization (ΔHn) is the change in enthalpy that occurs when one equivalent of an acid and one equivalent of a base undergo a neutralization reaction to form water and a salt.
The standard enthalpy change of neutralization is the enthalpy change when solutions of an acid and an alkali react together under standard conditions to produce 1 mole of water.
