Answer:

21.2 gm

Explanation:

calculate the mass of butane needed to produce 64.1 g of carbon dioxide to three significant figures and appropriate units

butane is the hydrocarbon C4H10  

in combustion, we react hydrocarbons with O2 to form CO2 and H2O

so

C4H10  + O2---------------->  CO2 + H2O

BALANCE

2C4H10 + 1302--------> 8CO2 + 10 H2O

the molar mass of CO2 is 12 + 16X2 = 44

64.1 gm of CO2 is

64.1/44 = 1.46 MOLES OF  CO2,

FOR EVERY 8 MOLES OF CO2 WE NEED 2 MOLES OF BUTANE  IT IS A

8:2 OR 4:1 RATIO.  THE MOLES OF C4H10 ARE 1/4 THE MOLES OF CO2

SO

THE MOLES OF C4H10 H10 ARE 1.46/4 =0.365 MOLES

THE MOLAR MASS OF BUTANE IS 58.12

0.365 MOLES OF C4H10 HAS A MASS OF 0.365 X 58.12 = 21.2 gm

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{CH_3COO^{-} \ (aq) + H^{+}\ (aq) \longrightarrow CH_3COOH \ (aq)}"

Explanation:

When HCI is added in the chemical equation it reacts with sodium acetate so, it will give the following chemical equation:

CH_3COONa\ (aq) + HCl\ (aq)\longrightarrow CH_3COOH\ (aq) + NaCl\ (aq)\\\\

 In this, the CH_3COOH is a weak acid so, it not completely dissociated.

CH_3COONa \ (aq) \ \ and \ NaCl were strong electrolytes they are completely dissociated.

The HCl is a strong acid so, it is completely dissociated So, the net ionic equation is:

CH_3COO^{-} \ (aq) + H^{+}\ (aq) \longrightarrow CH_3COOH \ (aq)

Answer:

Alright, the first thing we have to do is to balance the chemical equation

2Na3N -----> 6Na + 1N2

We have 60g of Na3N, we convert them into moles by dividing the mass of the compound by the molar mass.

Molar mass of Na3N = (22.98 x 3) + (14) = 82.94g/mol

  <u>60</u>          =  0.72341451651 moles of Na3N

82.94

Now because we did the balanced equation, we know the mole to mole ratio of Na3N to N2 would be 2:1, so in order to get the moles of N2 you have to divide the moles of Na3N by 2

0.72341451651 moles/2 = 0.361707258 moles of N2

Now that we have the moles of N2, we just have to determine the mass of it in grams. In order to do that, just multiply the moles by the molar mass of N2 (28g/mol)

0.361707258 x 28 = <u>10.13g of N2</u>

<u>Therefore the decomposition of 60g of Na3N would result in 10.13g of N2 (nitrogen gas)</u>
