<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

A. Dehydration reactions.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Dehydration reactions refer to chemical events where a water molecule is lost because of the presence of another reacting molecule.
  • Dehydration reaction is said to cause a decrease in entropy in various cells.
  • <em><u>Entropy within a cell refers to a state of inner instability secondary to different energies provided by the different molecular components.</u></em>
  • <em><u>When the water component is removed,  there will be less molecular energy and therefore decreased entropy.</u></em>

A gas occupies 18.5L at stp. what volume will it occupy at 735 torr and 57°c?
olga nikolaevna [1]

 The volume that  will  be occupied at 735  torr and 57 c  is 23.12 L


 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

  • <u><em> </em></u> At STP   temperature=273 k  and  pressure=760 torr
  • <u><em> </em></u>by use of combined  gas formula

that is P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2

where; P1 =760 torr

           T1= 273  K

           V1= 18.5 L

          P2= 735 torr

         T2=  57+273= 330 K

          V2=?

  • by making   V2 the formula of subject

     V2= T2P1V1/P2T1

       V2=  [(18.5L  x 330 k  x 760 torr)/(735 torr x 273 k)]= 23.12  L

6. 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon consumes 300
mario62 [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>a. C₂H₄</em></u>

Explanation:

At constant pressure and temperature, the mole ratio of the gases is equal to their volume ratio (a consequence of Avogadro's law).

Hence, the <em>complete combustion reaction</em> that has a ratio of 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon to 300 ml of oxygen, is that whose mole ratio is 1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol of oxygen.

Then, you must write the balanced chemical equations for the complete combustion of the four hydrocarbons in the list of choices, and conclude which has such mole ratio (1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol oxygen).

A complete combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon is the reaction with oxygen that produces CO₂ and H₂O, along with the release of heat and light.

<u>a. C₂H₄:</u>

  • C₂H₄ (g) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

Precisely, for this reaction the mole ratio is 1 mol C₂H₄: 2 mol O₂, hence, this is the right choice.

The following analysis just shows that the other options are not right.

<u>b. C₂H₂:</u>

  • 2C₂H₂ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

The mole ratio for this reaction is 2 mol C₂H₂ :5 mol O₂.

<u>с. С₃Н₈</u>

  • C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g)  + 4H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 1 mol C₃H₈ : 5 mol O₂

<u>d. C₂H₆</u>

  • 2C₂H₆ (g) +7 O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 6H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 2 mol C₂H₆ : 7 mol O₂
