Octane has a density of 0.703 g/ml. Calculate the mass of CO2(g) produced by burning one

Chemistry

STatiana [176]2 years ago
8 0

The mass of CO₂ gas produced during the combustion of one gallon of octane is 8.21 kg.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Density of the octane, ρ = 0.703 g/ml</em>
  • <em>Volume of octane, v = 3.79 liters</em>

<em />

The mass of the octane burnt is calculated as follows;

m = \rho V\\\\m = 0.703 \ \frac{g}{ml} \times 3.79 \ L \ \frac{1000 \ ml}{L} \\\\m = 2,664.37 \ g

The combustion reaction of octane is given as;

2C_8H_{18} +  \ 25O_2 \ --> \ 16CO_2 \ + \ 18H_2O

From the reaction above:

228.46 g of octane -------------------> 704 g of  CO₂ gas

2,664.37 of octane --------------------> ? of CO₂ gas

= \frac{2,664.37 \times 704}{228.46} \\\\= 8,210.3 \ g\\\\= 8.21 \ kg

Thus, the mass of CO₂ gas produced during the combustion of one gallon of octane is 8.21 kg.

A hypothetical element has an atomic weight of 48.68 amu. It consists of three isotopes having masses of 47.00 amu, 48.00 amu, a
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer : The percent abundance of the heaviest isotope is, 78 %

Explanation :

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i

As we are given that,

Average atomic mass = 48.68 amu

Mass of heaviest-weight isotope = 49.00 amu

Let the percentage abundance of heaviest-weight isotope = x %

Fractional abundance of heaviest-weight isotope = \frac{x}{100}

Mass of lightest-weight isotope = 47.00 amu

Percentage abundance of lightest-weight isotope = 10 %

Fractional abundance of lightest-weight isotope = \frac{10}{100}

Mass of middle-weight isotope = 48.00 amu

Percentage abundance of middle-weight isotope = [100 - (x + 10)] %  = (90 - x) %

Fractional abundance of middle-weight isotope = \frac{(90-x)}{100}

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:

48.68=[(47.0\times \frac{10}{100})+(48.0\times \frac{(90-x)}{100})+(49.0\times \frac{x}{100})]

x=78\%

Therefore, the percent abundance of the heaviest isotope is, 78 %

Fynjy0 [20]
Answer is: 7,826 kg of cryolite.
Chemical reaction: Al₂O₃ + 6NaOH + 12HF → 2Na₃AlF₆ + 9H₂<span>O.
m(</span>Al₂O₃) = 12,1 kg = 12100 g.
n(Al₂O₃) = m(Al₂O₃) ÷ M(Al₂O₃).
n(Al₂O₃) = 12100 g ÷ 101,96 g/mol = 111,86 mol; limiting reactant.
m(NaOH) = 60,4 kg = 60400 g.
n(NaOH) = 60400 g ÷ 40 g/mol.
n(NaOH) = 1510 mol.
m(HF) = 60,4 kg = 60400 g.
n(HF) = 60400 g ÷ 20 g/mol = 3020 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(Al₂O₃) : n(Na₃AlF₆) = 6 : 2.
n(Na₃AlF₆) = 2 ·111,86 mol ÷ 6 = 37,28 mol.
m(Na₃AlF₆) = 37,28 mol · 209,94 g/mol.
m(Na₃AlF₆) = 7826,56 g = 7,826 kg.

NISA [10]

Answer:

8.37 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

C₆H₁₂O₆     ⇒   2 C₂H₅OH (l) + 2 CO₂ (g)

Now we are asked to calculate the mass  of glucose required to produce 2.25 L CO₂ at 1atm and 295 K.

From the ideal gas law we can determine the number of moles that the 2.25 L represent.

From there we will use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the moles of glucose which knowing the molar mass can be converted to mass.

PV = nRT    ⇒ n = PV/RT

n= 1 atm x 2.25 L / ( 0.08205 Latm/kmol x 295 K ) =0.093 mol CO₂

Moles glucose required:

0.093 mol CO₂  x  ( 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆   / 2 mol CO₂ ) =  0.046 mol C₆H₁₂O₆

The molar mass of glucose is 180.16 g/mol, then the mass required is

0.046 mol x 180.16 g/mol = 8.37 g
