Response: - After the reaction, the gas volume in the flask totals 156.0 L.

Solution: The equation representing the combustion of ethane is:

2C_2H_6(g)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)

The balanced equation indicates that ethane and oxygen react in a 2:7 mol ratio, or 2:7 vol ratio assuming ideal conditions.

To determine the limiting reactant, we can first calculate how much oxygen is necessary for 36.0 L of ethane:

36.0LC_2H_6(\frac{7LO_2}{2LC_2H_6})

= 126 L O_2

To completely react with 36.0 L of ethane, 126 L of oxygen is needed, but only 105.0 L is available—therefore, oxygen is the limiting reactant.

Next, we compute the volumes of products formed from 105.0 L of oxygen:

105.0LO_2(\frac{4LCO_2}{7L O_2})

= 60.0 L CO_2

Now, let's calculate the volume of water vapor produced:

105.0L O_2(\frac{6L H_2O}{7L O_2})

= 90.0 L H_2O

Since there is excess ethane, some will still be present in the flask.

First, we need to find out how many liters reacted with 105.0 L of oxygen and subtract that from the initial volume of ethane:

105.0LO_2(\frac{2LC_2H_6}{7LO_2})

= 30.0 L C_2H_6

The remaining ethane volume = 36.0 L - 30.0 L = 6.0 L

Thus, the total gas volume in the flask post-reaction = 6.0 L + 60.0 L + 90.0 L = 156.0 L

Therefore, the final answer is 156.0 L.

Predict whether a reaction will occur when elemental chlorine and potassium iodide are mixed.
Alekssandra [3086]
Indeed, a reaction will occur as chlorine displaces iodine from its aqueous solution due to its more potent oxidizing properties.

A mass of 5.4 grams of aluminum (al) reacts with an excess of copper (ii) chloride (cucl2) in solution, as shown below. 3cucl2 2
eduard [2782]

Answer:

The mass of copper generated is 19.07g

Explanation:

Let's write out the chemical equation;

3CuCl2 + 2Al → 2AlCl3 + 3Cu

3:   2:   2: 3

After confirming that the reaction is balanced, we can continue.

The problem asks for the mass of Cu produced from 5.4g of Al reacting.

Based on the equation, what is the relation between Al and Cu?

2 moles of Al would yield 3 moles of Cu

Expressing this in mass terms, we find;

mass = number of moles * molar mass

Mass of Aluminium = 2 * 26.98 = 53.98 g

Mass of Copper = 3 * 63.546 = 190.638g

This indicates that;

53.98 g of Al would react to create 190.638g of Cu

So, how much Cu would result from 5.4 g of Al?

This leads us to;

53.98 = 190.638

5.4 = x

By cross multiplication, we determine;

x = (190.638 * 5.4) / 53.98

x = 19.07 g

The mass of copper created is 19.07g

Which items in this image are electrically conductive? Check all that apply.
Anarel [2989]
A indicates the power lines are what truly conducts (or transmits) the power.
Options B or E are incorrect, as wood is not a good conductor. That's why it's commonly used in homes to retain heat (which comes from electricity), preventing it from escaping.
Option C is also not correct since rubber, similarly, is a poor conductor. Like wood, it acts as an insulator, not transmitting heat (or electricity). This is why rubber gloves are utilized during electrical work.
Option D is valid—most metals are excellent electricity conductors. For instance, copper pans are efficient in cooking because copper effectively conducts heat. Being a metal, this is also why wire cutters have rubber grips; it isolates the user from potential electric shock from the conductive metal. The rubber serves as a barrier to protect against electrocution when handling wires or electricity.

11. If there are 8.24 x 1022 molecules of NaCl in a salt shaker, what is the mass of the salt?
lorasvet [2795]
To determine the mass of salt using Avogadro's number, we find the moles of NaCl: 8.24x10²² molecules NaCl divided by 6.022x10²³ molecules NaCl per mole gives 0.14 mole NaCl. We can convert moles to grams of NaCl by multiplying 0.14 mole by 58g NaCl per mole, yielding a total of 8.12 g NaCl.
