Answer: 0.25 g
I just took this test and that was the answer to it.
Let's begin with the basic values that will be used in the solution.
The formula of propane is C3H8. It is an alkane, a hydrocarbon with the general formula of CnH2n+2. Notice that hydrocarbons have only Carbon and Hydrogen atoms. Its molar mass (M) is 44 g.
Molar Mass Calculation is done as like that
C=12 g/mol, H=1 g/mol. 1 mole propane has 3 moles Carbon atoms and 8 mole Hydrogen atoms. M(C3H8)= 3*12+ 8*1= 44 g
Combustion reaction of hydrocarbons gives carbon dioxide and water by releasing energy. That energy is called as enthalpy of combustion (ΔHc°).
ΔHc° of propane equals -2202.0 kj/mol. Burning of 1 mole C3H8 releases 2202 kj energy. Minus sign only indicates that the energy is given out ( an exothermic reaction ).
Let's write the combustion reaction.
C3H8 + O2 ---> CO2 + H20 (unbalanced) ΔHc° = -2202 kj/mol
Now, we calculate mole of 20 kg propane. Convert kilogram into gram since we use molar mass is defined in grams.
mole=mass/molar mass ; n=m/M ; n= 20000 g /44 (g/mol)=454 mole
1 mole propane releases 2202 kj energy.
454 mole propane release 2202 kj *454= 1000909 kj
The answer is 1000909 kj.
A conductor is distinguished from an insulator with the same number of atoms by the number of nearly free electrons.
<h3>What are conductors and insulators?</h3>
Whether an object is made of conductive or nonconductive material affects how it behaves once it has been charged. Electrons can move freely between particles when they are in conductors, which are substances. The charge can be transported across the whole surface of an object constructed of a conducting substance.
A charge is swiftly dispersed across the full surface of the object if it is applied to it at a specific point. The motion of the electrons causes the distribution of charge. A charged object will constantly disperse its charge until the overall repulsive interactions between surplus electrons are minimized because conductors allow electrons to be moved from particle to particle.
Insulators, as opposed to conductors, are substances that prevent electrons from freely moving from one atom or molecule to another.
