In a reaction, 2mol of oxygen reacts with 8g of ethane to produce carbon dioxide and water, calculate the mass of carbon dioxide formed in this reaction. 2C2H6 +7O2 > 4CO2 +6H2O

Answers

Answer:

The mass of carbon dioxide formed in the reaction is 23.47 grams.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

2 C₂H₆ +7 O₂ ⇒ 4 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:

C₂H₆: 2 moles O₂: 7 moles CO₂: 4 molesH₂O: 6 moles

Being the molar mass of the compounds:

C₂H₆: 30 g/moleO₂: 16 g/mole CO₂: 44 g/moleH₂O: 18 g/mole

By reaction stoichiometry, the following mass amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:

C₂H₆: 2 moles* 30 g/mole= 60 gO₂: 7 moles* 16 g/mole= 112 gCO₂: 4 moles* 44 g/mole= 176 gH₂O: 6 moles* 18 g/mole= 108 g

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

To determine the limiting reagent, you can use a simple rule of three as follows:  if by stoichiometry of the reaction 7 moles of O₂ react with 60 g of C₂H₆, 2 moles of O₂ will react with how much mass of C₂H₆?

[tex]mass of C_{2}H_{6} =\frac{2 moles of O_{2}* 60 grams of C_{2}H_{6} }{7 moles of O_{2}}[/tex]

mass of C₂H₆= 17.14 grams

But 17.14 grams of C₂H₆ are not available, 8 grams are available. Since you have less moles than you need to react with 2 moles of O₂, ethane C₂H₆ will be the limiting reagent.

Then, it is possible to determine the amount of mass of CO₂ produced by another rule of three: if by stoichiometry 60 grams of C₂H₆ produce 176 grams of CO₂, how many mass of CO₂ will be formed if 8 grams of C₂H₆ react?

[tex]mass of CO_{2} =\frac{8 grams of C_{2}H_{6}* 176 grams of CO_{2} }{60 grams of C_{2}H_{6}}[/tex]

mass of CO₂= 23.47 grams

The mass of carbon dioxide formed in the reaction is 23.47 grams.

2:1 ratio?

Answers

Answer:

Will group 2 elements lose electrons to bond with nonmetals in group 17 in a

1:2 ratio?

Explanation:

Metals are electropositive in nature. This means that they loose electrons. Thus, metals form ionic bonds by loosing electrons to non metals.

Elements of group 2 have a valency of 2 while those of group 17 has a valency of 1 so the ratio in which group 2 elements bond with elements of group 17 is 1:2. Hence the answer.

What is this equation balanced?

Answers

Answer:

2Al + 6HCl —> 3H₂ + 2AlCl₃

Explanation:

From the question given above:

Al + HCl —> H₂ + AlCl₃

The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:

Al + HCl —> H₂ + AlCl₃

We have 1 atom of Cl on the left side and 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of HCl and 2 in front of AlCl₃ as shown below:

Al + 6HCl —> H₂ + 2AlCl₃

We have 6 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by 3 in front of H₂ as shown below:

Al + 6HCl —> 3H₂ + 2AlCl₃

We have 1 atom of Al on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of Al as shown below:

2Al + 6HCl —> 3H₂ + 2AlCl₃

Thus, the equation is balanced.

What happens when liquid changes to gas?


1.Added heat makes water molecules move fast enough to overcome the attraction
between them
2. Heat causes molecules to speed up and merge together (Which one?)

Answers

Answer:

#1

The temperature that this happens is called the freezing point and is the same temperature as the melting point. As more energy is put into the system, the water heats up, the molecules begin moving faster and faster until there is finally enough energy in the system to totally overcome the attractive forces.

Explanation:

#2

Heating a liquid increases the speed of the molecules. An increase in the speed of the molecules competes with the attraction between molecules and causes molecules to move a little further apart. ... A decrease in the speed of the molecules allows the attractions between molecules to bring them a little closer together.

Why do molecules change the speed? (SELECT ONE)

 Claim 1: Molecules speed up when energy is created and slow down when energy is destroyed.

 Claim 2: Molecules speed up when they get energy from other molecules and slow down when they give energy to other molecules.

Answers

Answer:

Molecules speed up when they get energy from other molecules and slow down when they give energy to other molecules.

Explanation:

We know from the first law of thermodynamics that energy can not be created nor destroyed.

However, according to the kinetic molecular theory, molecules collide frequently with each other. All molecules in a substance do not possess equal energy hence some molecules are more energetic than others.

When a more energetic molecule collides with a less energetic molecule, the more energetic molecule transfers energy to the less energetic molecule. The less energetic molecule speeds up while the molecule that collided with it slows down due to energy transfer from one molecule to another.

What is an atom ?

Each atom is made up of a nucleus and one or more electrons that are linked to it. One or more protons and a significant number of neutrons make up the nucleus. Only the most prevalent kind of hydrogen is neutron-free. The smallest component of ordinary stuff that makes up a chemical element is an atom.

An atom's nucleus is surrounded by an area of electrons. The electrical charge of every electron is negative one. Protons and neutrons, which together make up an atom's nucleus, are made of quarks.

The atoms in the reactants rearrange and link with one another differently to create one or more new products that vary from the reactants in several ways.

Thus, When bonds between molecules or atoms are created, disrupted, or both, chemical changes occur.

If the temperature of a gas increased from 100 K to 200 K and the volume of a gas decreased from 20 L to 10 L, what is the new pressure if the original pressure was kPa?

Answers

Answer:

320pka

Explanation:

This is a complete question;

If the temperature of a gas increased from 100 K to 200 K and the volume of a gas decreased from 20 L to 10 L, what is the new pressure if the original pressure was 80kPa?

EXPLANATION;

Gas laws can be regarded as aws which relate the pressure, volume, as well as temperature of a gas. It can be expressed as

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where

V1= initial volume= 20L

V2 = final volume= 10L

T1 = initial temperature= 100K

T2 = final temperature= 200K

P2=final pressure=

P1= initial pressure= 80pka

Making P2 subject of the formula from the eqn, we have

P2= (P1*V1*T2=)/(T1*V2)

If we substitute the values we have

P2= (80 × 20×200)/(100×10)

P2= 320pka

Hence, the new pressure is 320pka

The modern theory of the atom states that electrons do not travel in specific paths or orbits. Where do electrons travel? Can we predict where an electron may be found?

Answers

Answer:

1. When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side.

2. Well, if you think about it logically, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle basically means that it's impossible to predict both exactly what the electron will do or exactly where the electron will be found.  In other words, when you know where the electron is going, you don't know where it is.
