Carbon -13 has 7 neutrons and carbon -12 has six neutrons. Carbon -12 is the most common isotope of Carbon. Carbon -14 is radioactive and vary rare. The symbols for the isotopes of Carbon atoms shown here indicate they each have six protons but mass numbers of 14, 13, and 12. Hope this helps. :)
An aqueous solution in a 55 gallon (208 l drum), characterized by minimal buffering capacity, received 4kg of phenol and 1.5 kg of sodium phenate. What is the ph of the solution. The pka of phenol = 9.98. Mw of phenol and sodium phenate are 94 g/mol and 116 g/mol, respectively.
Volume of solution = 55 gallons = 208.2 L [ 1 gallon = 3.78 L]
moles of phenol = mass / molar mass = 4000 g / 94 = 42.55 moles
moles of sodium phenate = mass / molar mass = 1500 / 116 = 12.93 moles
pKa of phenol = 9.98
We know that the pH of buffer is calculated using Hendersen Hassalbalch's equation
pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid]
volume is same for both the sodium phenate and phenol has we can directly take the moles of each in the formula
pH = 9.98 + log [12.93 / 42.55] = 9.46
Answer:
11.45kcal/g
2.612 × 10³ kcal
Explanation:
When a compound burns (combustion) it produces carbon dioxide and water. The combustion of 2-methylheptane can be represented by the following balanced equation:
2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ⇄ 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O
It releases 1.306 × 10³ kcal every 1 mol of C₈H₁₈ that is burned.
<em>What is the heat of combustion for 2-methylheptane in kcal/gram?</em>
We know that the molar mass of C₈H₁₈ is 114.0g/mol. Then, using proportions:

<em>How much heat will be given off if molar quantities of 2-methylheptane react according to the following equation? 2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ⇄ 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O</em>
In this equation we have 2 moles of C₈H₁₈. So,
