Answer:

About 19.64 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of gasoline. On the other hand, 22.38 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of diesel. So, different fossil fuels will give different amounts of carbon dioxide to be released.

Suppose a friend says that we don't need to worry about the rising temperatures associated with global climate change. Her claim
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Carbonic acid could be formed.

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on her claim, it would be a really useful strategy to prevent global warming, nevertheless, there would be a problem if a increasing amount of carbon dioxide is not buried at the bottom of the ocean yet it flows freely along the sea and probably reacting with the water, causing carbonic acid to be formed  and subsequently cutting back the sea's pH (increasing its acidity).

It would be useful, but a constant monitoring of the sea's pH must be needed because this could cause some species to be affected not only by the temperature but for the acid pH as well.

Best regards.

Answer : The mass of MnCO_3 required are, 35 kg

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of MnO_2.

The first step balanced chemical reaction is:

2MnCO_3+O_2\rightarrow 2MnO_2+2CO_2

Molar mass of MnCO_3 = 115 g/mole

Molar mass of MnO_2 = 87 g/mole

Let the mass of MnCO_3 be, 'x' grams.

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, (2\times 115)g of MnCO_3 react to give (2\times 87)g of MnO_2

So, xg of MnCO_3 react to give \frac{(2\times 87)g}{(2\times 115)g}\times x=0.757xg of MnO_2

And as we are given that the yield produced from the first step is, 65 % that means,

60\% \text{ of }0.757xg=\frac{60}{100}\times 0.757x=0.4542xg

The mass of MnO_2 obtained = 0.4542x g

Now we have to calculate the mass of Mn.

The second step balanced chemical reaction is:

3MnO_2+4Al\rightarrow 3Mn+2Al_2O_3

Molar mass of MnO_2 = 87 g/mole

Molar mass of Mn = 55 g/mole

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, (3\times 87)g of MnO_2 react to give (3\times 55)g of Mn

So, 0.4542xg of MnO_2 react to give \frac{(3\times 55)g}{(3\times 87)g}\times 0.4542x=0.287xg of Mn

And as we are given that the yield produced from the second step is, 80 % that means,

80\% \text{ of }0.287xg=\frac{80}{100}\times 0.287x=0.2296xg

The mass of Mn obtained = 0.2296x g

The given mass of Mn = 8.0 kg = 8000 g     (1 kg = 1000 g)

So, 0.2296x = 8000

x = 34843.20 g = 34.84 kg = 35 kg

Therefore, the mass of MnCO_3 required are, 35 kg

Acetylene, c2h2, has a standard enthalpy of formation, δh° = 226.7 kj/mol, and a standard entropy change for its formation from
VLD [36.1K]
ΔG⁰ = ΔH⁰ - T ΔS⁰

ΔG⁰ : Standard free energy of formation of acetylene

ΔH⁰ : Standard enthalpy of formation (226.7 kJ/mol)

ΔS⁰ : Standard entropy change (58.8 J / K. mol)

T : Temperature 25°C = 298 K (room temperature)

ΔG⁰ = 226.7 - (298 x 58.8 x 10⁻³) = 209.2 kJ /mol
