Ethanol, C2H6O, is most often blended with gasoline - usually as a 10 percent mix - to create a fuel called gasohol. Ethanol is

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

This means 463 grams of ethanol would provide less amount of energy

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Heat of combustion of ethanol = 326.7 kcal/mol

The heat of combustion of octane = 1.308*10³ kcal/mol

Mass of octane = 463 grams

Molar mass octane = 114.23 g/mol

Molar mass ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles octane

Moles octane = mass octane / molar mass octane

Moles octane = 463 grams / 114.23 g/mol

Moles octane = 4.05 moles

Step 3: Calculate energy of combustion of 4.05 moles octane

Combustion of 1 mol octane gives us: 1.308 * 10³ kcal/mol

Combustion of 4.05 moles octane gives us 4.05 * 1.308 * 10³ kcal/mol = 5.30 * 10³ kcal

This means the combustion reaction of 463 grams of octane gives us 5.30 * 10³ kcal

Step 4:

Heat of combustion of ethanol = 326.7 kcal/mol

OR in words: combustion of 1 mol ethanol gives us 326.7 kcal energy

Moles ethanol = 463 grams / 46.07 g/mol

Moles ethanol = 10.05 moles

Since combustion of 1 mol ethanol gives us 326.7 kcal

10.05 moles ethanol will give us = 10.05 * 326.7 = 3283.3 kcal = 3.28 * 10³ kcal

5.30 * 10³ kcal > 3.28 * 10³ kcal

This means 463 grams of ethanol would provide less amount of energy

Balance each of the following redox reactions occurring in basic solution.MnO−4(aq)+Br−(aq)→MnO2(s)+BrO−3(aq)Express your answer

Ahat [919]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

$2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)$

Explanation :

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in basic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.
Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.
Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.
If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the more number of oxygen are present.
If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydroxide ion $(OH^-)$ at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.
Now balance the charge.

The half reactions in the basic solution are :

Reduction : $MnO_4^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+4OH^-(aq)$ ......(1)

Oxidation : $Br^-(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+6e^-$ .......(2)

Now multiply the equation (1) by 2 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

The balanced chemical equation in a basic solution will be,

$2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)$
