The first step is to balance the equation:


<span>C3H8 + 5O2 ---> 3CO2 + 4H2O


Check the balance


element          left side        right side

C                    3                  3  
H                    8                  4*2 = 8
O                    5*2=10        3*2 + 4 = 10


Then you have the molar ratios:


3 mol C3H8 : 5 mol O2 : 3 mol CO2 : 4 mol H2O


Now you have 40 moles of O2 so you make the proportion:

40.0 mol O2 * [3 mol CO2 / 5 mol O2] = 24.0 mol CO2.


Answer: option D. 24.0 mol CO2

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The tissue cells

Explanation:

I think you mean this

H^{+}+HCO^{3} ^{-}  H_{2}CO_{3}

It all starts from Carbondioxide. This Carbondioxide is dissolved in the blood and taken by red blood cell and converted into carbonic acid. It then dissociates to form a bicarbonate ion HCO^{3} ^{-} and a hydrogen ion H^{+}

This <--> means that the whole process is reversible. It is a buffer system to maintain the pH in the blood and duodenum. And also to support proper metabolic function.

In two or more complete sentences explain how to balance the chemical equation and classify its reaction type. ___P4 + ___O2 ⟶ _
Serhud [2]

According to the conversation of mass, mass cannot be created or destroyed. This means whatever is done to one side, must be done to the other.

There are 4 Phosphorus atoms on the left, there must be 4 on the right. To do this, you must multiply the P2O3 by 2 to get 4 Phosphorus atoms and 6 Oxygen atoms. Now to balance the Oxygen atoms, you must multiply the oxygen atoms on the left by 3.

1 P4 + 3 O2 —-> 2 P2O3

Lastly, this equation type is synthesis (combination) because two reactants are becoming a single product.

7.744 Liters of nitrogen are contained in a container. Convert this amount to grams.
Xelga [282]

Answer:

9.69g

Explanation:

To obtain the desired result, first let us calculate the number of mole of N2 in 7.744L of the gas.

1mole of a gas occupies 22.4L at stp.

Therefore, Xmol of nitrogen gas(N2) will occupy 7.744L i.e

Xmol of N2 = 7.744/22.4 = 0.346 mole

Now let us convert 0.346 mole of N2 to gram in order to obtain the desired result. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of N2 = 2x14 = 28g/mol

Number of mole N2 = 0.346 mole

Mass of N2 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of N2 = 0.346 x 28

Mass of N2 = 9.69g

Therefore, 7.744L of N2 contains 9.69g of N2

Why was methyl red used as an indicator in this experiment rather than phenolphthalein?
wolverine [178]
Methyl Red, also called C.I. Acid Red 2, is an indicator dye that turns red in acidic solutions. 
Phenolphthalein is a sensitive chemical with the formula C20H14O4 (often written as "HIn" in chemistry shorthand notation). Often used in titrations, it turns from colorless in acidic solutions to pink in basic solutions. If the concentration of indicator is particularly strong, it can appear purple. A phenolphtalein turns a bright orange color, in a solution containing a ph below 0.
