Answer:

They are used because of preference or convenience, not necessity. These scales came about historically when there were no standards to calibrate a thermometer against. The Fahrenheit scale used the temperature of the coldest thing then known for its zero, which was salty ice.13-Oct-2019

Propane is often used to heat homes. The combustion of propane follows the following reaction: C3H8(g) + 5O2(g)  3CO2 (g) + 4H
swat32

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

Which of the following best summarizes the ideal gas law?
8090 [49]

Answer:

Option C. PV = nRT

Explanation:

The ideal gas gas equation gives the relationship between pressure, volume, number mole a gas and temperature of gas.

Mathematically, the ideal gas equation is given as:

PV = nRT

Where:

P is the pressure measured in atmosphere (atm).

V is the volume measured in litres(L) or cubic decimetre (dm³).

n is the number of mole of gas.

R is the gas constant (0.0821atm.L/Kmol)

T is temperature measured in Kelvin (K).
