The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane 2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O calculated from the average bond energies of the compounds is -2860 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O  (1)  

The enthalpy of reaction (1) is given by:

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}   (2)

Where:

r: is for reactants

p: is for products

The bonds of the compounds of reaction (1) are:

  • 2CH₃CH₃: 2 moles of 6 C-H bonds + 2 moles of 1 C-C bond
  • 7O₂: 7 moles of 1 O=O bond  
  • 4CO₂: 4 moles of 2 C=O bonds  
  • 6H₂O: 6 moles of 2 H-O bonds

Hence, the enthalpy of reaction (1) is (eq 2):

\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}

\Delta H = 2*\Delta H_{CH_{3}CH_{3}} + 7\Delta H_{O_{2}} - (4*\Delta H_{CO_{2}} + 6*\Delta H_{H_{2}O})      

\Delta H = 2*(6*\Delta H_{C-H} + \Delta H_{C-C}) + 7\Delta H_{O=O} - (4*2*\Delta H_{C=O} + 6*2*\Delta H_{H-O})  

\Delta H = [2*(6*413 + 347) + 7*498 - (4*2*799 + 6*2*467)] kJ/mol  

\Delta H = -2860 kJ/mol          

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane is -2860 kJ/mol.

Calculate the percent mass of sugar in mountain dew: The total mass of the mountain dew solution is 300g and there are 231 g of
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

c. 77 %

Explanation:

Percent mass (% mass) of solute = mass of solute/mass of solution × 100

According to this question, a mountain dew solution weighing 300grams contains 231 g of sugar. This means that:

% mass of sugar = 231g/300g × 100

% mass of sugar = 0.77 × 100

% mass of sugar = 77%.

Methane burns in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

= 9.28 g CO₂

Explanation:

First write a balanced equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂ -> 2H₂O + CO₂

Convert the information to moles

7.50g CH₄ = 0.46875 mol CH₄

13.5g O₂ = 0.421875 mol O₂

Theoretical molar ratio CH₄:O₂ -> 1:2

Actual ratio is  0.46875 : 0.421875 ≈ 1:1

If all CH₄ is used up, there would need to be more O₂

So O₂ is the limiting reactant and we use this in our equation

Use molar ratio to find moles of CO₂

0.421875 mol O₂ * 1 mol CO₂/2 mol O₂=0.2109375 mol CO₂

Then convert to grams

0.2109375 mol CO₂ = 9.28114 g CO₂

round to 3 sig figs

= 9.28 g CO₂

When 10.0 grams of sulfur reacts with fluorine gas at a pressure of 2.69 atmosphere in a 5.00 L container at 0.00 degrees Celsiu
Gwar [14]

Answer:

74.1%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

S₈ + 16F₂ → 8SF₄

<em>1 mole of sulfur reacts with 16 moles of F₂ to produce 8 moles of SF₄</em>

<em />

To solve this question we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find the moles of SF₄. Thus, we can find the theoretical mass produced. Percent yield is:

Percent yield = Actual yield (25.0g) / Theoretical yield * 100

<em>Moles S₈: 256.52g/mol</em>

10.0g * (1mol / 256.52g) = 0.0390 moles

<em>Moles F₂:</em>

<em>PV = nRT</em>

PV/RT = n

<em>Where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in liters, R is gas constant and T is absolute temperature (0°C = 273.15K)</em>

2.69atm*5.00L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15K = n

0.600 moles = n

For a complete reaction of 0.600 moles F₂ are required:

0.600mol F₂ * (1mol S₈ / 8 mol F₂) = 0.075 moles S₈

As there are just 0.0390 moles, S₈ is limiting reactant.

The theoretical moles and mass of SF₄ -Molar mass: 108.07g/mol- is:

0.0390 moles S₈ * (8mol SF₄ / 1mol S₈) = 0.312 moles SF₄ * (108.07g) =

33.7g

Percent yield = 25.0g / 33.7g * 100

= 74.1%

A cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of a corn plant. Based on this observation
Alik [6]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A). synthesizes more sugar

B). has a higher chromosome count

C). produces fewer proteins

D). uses less carbon dioxide

The answer is A

Explanation:

The chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of photosynthetic organisms. It is the site where photosynthesis, which is the production of food (sugars) from sunlight energy, occurs.

According to this question, a cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of the same corn plant. Based on this observation, it can be inferred that the LEAF CELLS WILL SYNTHESIZE MORE SUGARS THAN THE STEM CELL because the more the chloroplast, the higher the photosynthetic rate and subsequently the higher the amount of sugar produced.
