Answer:
To release 7563 kJ of heat, we need to burn 163.17 grams of propane
Explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: Data given
C3H8 + 5O2 -----------> 3CO2 + 4H2O ΔH° = –2044 kJ
This means every mole C3H8
Every mole of C3H8 produces 2044 kJ of heat when it burns (ΔH° is negative because it's an exothermic reaction)
<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the number of moles to produce 7563 kJ of heat
1 mol = 2044 kJ
x mol = 7563 kJ
x = 7563/2044 = 3.70 moles
To produce 7563 kJ of heat we have to burn 3.70 moles of C3H8
<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate mass of propane
Mass propane = moles * Molar mass
Mass propane = 3.70 moles * 44.1 g/mol
Mass propane = 163.17 grams
To release 7563 kJ of heat, we need to burn 163.17 grams of propane
The expected speed is v = 85.5 km/h
v = 85.5 km/h = (85.5 km/h)*(0.2778 (m/s)/(km/h)) = 23.75 m/s
If there is an uncertainty of 2 meters in measuring the position, then within a 1-second time interval:
The lower measurement for the speed is v₁ = 21.75 m/s,
The upper measurement for the speed is v₂ = 25.75 m/s.
The range of variation is
Δv = v₂ - v₁ = 4 m/s
The uncertainty in measuring the speed is
Δv/v = 4/23.75 = 0.1684 = 16.84%
Answer: 16.8%
