Butane (c4h10) undergoes combustion in excess oxygen to generate gaseous carbon dioxide and water. given δh°f[c4h10(g)] = –124.7

kj/mol, δh°f[co2(g)] = –393.5 kj/mol, δh°f[h2o(g)] = –241.8 kj/mol, how much energy is released (kj) when 8.30 g of butane is burned?

The Δ H value for butane (g) is -124.7 kJ/mol.

The Δ H value for CO2 (g) is -393.5 kJ/mol.

The Δ H value for H2O (g) is -241.8 kJ/mol.

The mass of butane is 8.30 grams.

Butane has a molar mass of 58 g/mol.

Considering the reaction,

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ = 4CO₂ + 5H₂O

To determine the Δ H° of the reaction:

ΔH°rxn = ∑nH° f (products) - ∑nH° f (reactants)

By substituting values, we find that

Δ H° rxn = 4 (-393.5) + 5 (-241.8) - (-124.7)

= -1574 -1209 + 124.7

= -2783 - 124.7

= -2658.3 kJ/mol

Now, we will calculate how many moles of butane are in 8.30 grams.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 8.30 / 58

= 0.143 moles

Therefore, the total energy released during the reaction is given by,

Q = number of moles × ΔH° rxn

= 0.143 × (2658.3)

= 380.14 kJ

Thus, the total heat released in the reaction is 380.14 kJ.

lions [1003]

The visual representation is displayed in the following image.

For calculations, consider 100 grams of the compound:

ω(Cl) = 85.5% ÷ 100%.

ω(Cl) = 0.855; signifying the mass percentage of chlorine in the compound.

m(Cl) = 0.855 · 100 g.

m(Cl) = 85.5 g; this represents the mass of chlorine.

m(C) = 100 g - 85.5 g.

m(C) = 14.5 g; indicating the mass of carbon.

n(Cl) = m(Cl) ÷ M(Cl).

n(Cl) = 85.5 g ÷ 35.45 g/mol.

n(Cl) = 2.41 mol; this is the quantity of chlorine.

n(C) = 14.5 g ÷ 12 g/mol.

n(C) = 1.21 mol; this is the quantity of carbon.

n(Cl): n(C) = 2.41 mol: 1.21 mol = 2: 1.

The compound in question is identified as dichlorocarbene CCl₂.

Alekssandra [992]

Answer:

Explanation:

Diethyl malonate possesses greater acidity compared to monocarbonyl substances (pKa=13) because its alpha hydrogens are linked to two carbonyl groups. Consequently, the malonic ester can be readily changed into its enolate ion by reacting it with sodium ethoxide in ethanol. When the malonic ester undergoes alkylation, a hydrogen atom in the alpha position becomes acidic, permitting another round of alkylation to yield a dialkylated malonic ester.

In this scenario, when diethyl malonate interacts with urea in the presence of sodium ethoxide base, the second alkylation step occurs within the molecule, producing a cyclic compound known as barbituric acid.

What features of this model will help Armando answer the question?
lions [1003]

Answer:

The adjustable legs along with the sand table.

Note: The question is incomplete. The full question is presented below.

Using Models to Address Questions Regarding Systems

Armando’s class was examining images of rivers shaped by flowing water. Most rivers appeared wide and shallow, except for one, which was narrow and deep. The students theorized that this river's narrowness and depth are due to:

  • the steepness of the hill from which the water descends, or
  • the diminutive size of the sand grains the water flows through.

To explore the answer to the question of why this river is so narrow and deep, Armando created the model outlined below.

Explanation:

The model constructed by Armando will facilitate addressing the question due to specific features:

1. Adjustable leg - as one theory proposed by the class suggests that the steep hill affecting the water's path could be the reason for the river's dimensions, the adjustable legs are designed to be raised or lowered to alter the slope, allowing testing of this theory.

2. Sand table - this acts as the streambed. By modifying the size of the sand grains, students can examine the second hypothesis that smaller sand grains contribute to the river's narrowness and depth.

The outcomes of their experimentation will lead them to a conclusion.

KiRa [976]

Answer:

[Cl⁻] = 0.016M

Explanation:

To begin, we analyze the reaction:

Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + MgCl₂ (aq) → PbCl₂ (s) ↓  +  Mg(NO₃)₂(aq)

This indicates a solubility equilibrium, resulting in the formation of lead(II) chloride precipitate. The salt can dissociate as follows:

           PbCl₂(s)  ⇄  Pb²⁺ (aq)  +  2Cl⁻ (aq)     Kps

Initial        x

React       s

Eq          x - s              s                  2s

Given that this is an equilibrium scenario, the Kps serves as the constant (Solubility product):

Kps = s. (2s)²

Kps = 4s³ = 1.7ₓ10⁻⁵

4s³ = 1.7ₓ10⁻⁵

s =  ∛(1.7ₓ10⁻⁵. 1/4)

s = 0.016 M
