The standard heat of combustion of ethanol, C2H5OH, is 1372 kJ/mol ethanol. How much heat (in kJ) would be liberated by complete

Answer:

The correct answer is 596.5 kJ.

Explanation:

The mass of ethanol or C2H5OH mentioned in the question is 20 gm.  

The molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol.  

The moles of the compound can be determined by using the formula,  

n = weight of the compound/molar mass

= 20/46 = 0.435 moles

It is mentioned in the question that standard heat of combustion of ethanol is 1372 kJ/mole, that is, one mole of ethanol is producing 1372 kilojoules of energy at the time of combustion.  

Therefore, the energy liberated by completely burning the 20 grams of ethanol is 0.435*1372 = 596.5 kJ.

Answer:

Pd(O2C2H3)2

Explanation:

<u>Percentage composition of elements in the compound:</u>

Pd= 47.40%

O=28.50%

C=21.40%

H= 2.69%

<u>Molar mass of each element</u>

Pd= 106g/mol

O= 16g/mol

C= 12g/mol

H= 1g/mol

Step 1

Find the moles of each element in 100g sample using the formula

no. of moles(n)=mass/molar mass

<u>For Pd:</u> 47.40g/106g/mol

      n=   0.447 moles

<u>For O:</u> 28.50/16

      n= 1.78 moles

<u>For C:</u> 21.40/12

       n= 1.783 moles

<u>For H:</u> 2.69/1

     n= 2.69moles

Step 2

Now divide the no. of moles separately by the smallest number of moles. Smallest number of moles is <em>0.447</em>

Pd= 0.447/0.447

    = 1

O= 1.78/0.447

  = 3.9=4

C= 1.78/0.447

  = 3.9=4

H= 2.69/0.447

 = 6

Hence empirical formula is PdO4C4H6

The probable molecular formula is Pd(O_{2}C_{2}H_{3})2

If 16.0 mL of acetone is dissolved in water to make 155 mL of solution what is the concentration expressed in volume/volume % of
Lady_Fox [76]
Percentage by volume of solution is the percentage volume of solute in total volume of solution.
Volume percentage (v/v%) = volume of solute / total volume of solution x 100%
volume of solute - 16.0 mL
total volume of solution - 155 mL 
v/v% = 16.0 / 155 x 100% = 10.32%
this means that in a volume of 100 mL solution, 10.32 mL is acetone.

A 0.652-g sample of a pure strontium halide reacts with excess sulfuric acid. the solid strontium sulfate formed is separated, d
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The formula of the original halide is SrCl₂.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of this reaction is:

SrX₂ + H₂SO₄ → SrSO₄ + 2 HX, where X is the halide.

  • From the equation stichiometry, 1.0 mole of strontium halide will result in 1.0 mole of SrSO₄.
  • The number of moles of SrSO₄ <em>(n = mass/molar mass) </em>= (0.755 g) / (183.68 g/mole) = 4.11 x 10⁻³ mole.
  • The number of moles of SrX are  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
  • n = mass / molar mass, n =  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles and mass = 0.652 g.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ = mass / n = (0.652) / (4.11 x 10⁻³ moles) = 158.62 g/mole.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ (158.62 g/mole) = Atomic mass of Sr (87.62 g/mole) + (2 x Atomic mass of halide X).
  • The atomic mass of halide X = (158.62 g/mole) - (87.62 g/mole) / 2 = 71 / 2  g/mole = 35.5 g/mole.
  • This is the atomic mass of Cl.
  • <em>So, the formula of the original halide is SrCl₂</em>.

This formula equation is unbalanced. P4(s) + Cl2(g) Right arrow. PCl3(l) Which coefficient should be placed in front of PCl3 to
Levart [38]

Answer:

The balance equation is:

P₄(s) + 6Cl₂(g) → 4PCl₃(l)

Therefore the coefficient that should be placed in front of PCl₃ is 4

Explanation:

The unbalanced reaction is:

P₄(s) + Cl₂(g) → PCl₃(l)

As we have 4 atoms of P, we need to add 4 in front of the PCl₃ but now we unbalance the chlorine.

In 4 moles of PCl₃ we have 12 Cl, so we must add 6 in the Cl₂ on the reactant side.

The balance equation will be:

P₄(s) + 6Cl₂(g) → 4PCl₃(l)
