Write about the characteristics of carbon compounds:
mart [117]

The characteristics of carbon compounds are they exist with different structures in which the atoms are arranged differently and it forms more compounds than other elements combined.

Explanation:

The carbon atom has atomic number 6 which represents the number of electrons. It is represented by C and it is a non- metal. It has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. They are smaller in size so that it can fit in to larger molecules.

It is the only element that can form different compounds because each carbon atoms can form four chemical bonds to other atoms.

The structure of carbon atom is represented with its atomic number 6. The first two electrons are present in inner shell and the remaining four are present in the second shell.

The carbon combines with oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen to form many molecules for cellular function. Carbon and hydrogen combine to form hydrocarbon chains and rings.

For example the structural formula for Methane (CH4)

5. Hydrogen & oxygen react chemically to form water. How much water
stepladder [879]

39.25 g of water (H₂O)

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

2 H₂ + O₂ → 2 H₂O

Now we calculate the number of moles of each reactant:

number of moles = mass / molar weight

number of moles of H₂ = 14.8 / 2 = 7.4 moles

number of moles of O₂ = 34.8 / 32 = 1.09 moles

We see from the chemical reaction that 2 moles of H₂ will react with 1 mole of O₂ so 7.4 moles of H₂ will react with 3.7 moles of O₂ but we only have 1.09 moles of O₂ available. The O₂ will be the limiting reactant. Knowing this we devise the following reasoning:

if        1 moles of O₂ produces 2 moles of H₂O

then  1.09 moles of O₂ produces X moles of H₂O

X = (1.09 × 2) / 1 = 2.18 moles of H₂O

mass = number of moles × molar weight

mass of H₂O = 2.18 × 18 = 39.25 g

When 0.230 g of sodium metal is added to an excess of hydrochloric acid, 2390 J of heat are produced. What is the enthalpy of th
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

ΔHrxn = 239 kj/mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium = 0.230 g

Heat produced = 2390 J

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na + 2HCl → 2NaCl + H₂

Number of moles of sodium:

Number of moles of sodium = mass / molar mass

Number of moles of sodium = 0.230 g / 23 g/mol

Number of moles of sodium = 0.01 mol

Enthalpy of reaction:

ΔHrxn =  2390 J / 0.01 mol

ΔHrxn = 239000 j/mol

ΔHrxn = 239 kj/mol
