Answer 1

Answer:

6059.63 kcal/kg.

Explanation:

CH4 consist of Hydrogen and carbon. Therefore, Hydrogen in CH4 = 12 × 4 = 48 kg,  carbon in CH4 = 12 × 12 = 144kg.

For ethane, the amount of hydrogen present = 2 × 6 = 12kg and that of carbon in ethane = 2 × 24 = 48kg.

The weight of carbon in CO = 15 × 12 = 18kg and the weight of Hydrogen in CO = 15 × 16 = 240kg.

For hydrogen, its weight in H2 = 50 × 2 = 100kg.

For CO2, carbon has = 4 × 12 = 48 kg and oxygen has = 4 × 32 = 128kg.

For C6H6, carbon has 2 × 72 = 144kg and hydrogen has 2 × 6 = 12kg.

For N2, the amount of nitrogen= 11 × 28 = 308 kg.

For CH2= CH2, carbon has 4 × 24 = 96kg and hydrogen = 4 × 4 = 16kg.

The gross calofiric value = 1/100 [ 8080 C + 34500 + ( H - O/8) + 22405].

Where the total weight = 128 + 180+ 48 + 240 + 100 + 144 + 48 + 12 + 48 + 16 + 96 + 308 + 12 + 144 = 1524 kg.

The percentage by weight of carbon = total weight of carbon/total weight × 100.

The total Weight of carbon= 48 + 180 + 144 + 48 +144 + 96 = 660kg.

The percentage weight of carbon = 660/1524 × 100 = 43.3 %.

The percentage weight of hydrogen = total weight of hydrogen/total weight × 100.

The total weight of hydrogen = 100 + 12 + 48 + 16 +12 = 188.

The percentage weight of Hydrogen = 188/ 1524 × 100 = 12.33%.

Percentage weight of oxygen = total weight of oxygen/total weight × 100.

Percentage weight of oxygen = ( 128 + 240) / 1524 × 100 = 24.15%.

The gross calorific value = 1/100 [ 8080 × 43.3 ,+ 34500 ( 13.33 - 24.15/8) ] = 6711.02 kcal/kg.

Net calorific value = 6711.02 - 0.09 × 12.3 × 587 = 6059.63kcal/kg.

An unknown solid is added to water in a calorimeter. The temperature of the water increases. What does this say about the reaction? A) The reaction is exothermic. B) The reaction is endothermic. C) The reaction has absorbed heat from the solution. D) The reaction has released heat to the solution. E) Both A and D are correct.

Answers

Answer:

Option A is correct.

Option D is correct.

E is the correct answer

Explanation:

This a theoretical calorimetry problem that can be solved by thermodynamic concepts.

Our system is the unknown solid. If the temperature of water has increased, we can think, that the heat from the metal was absorbed by water, which is our surrounding. If in the analysis of the situation we use a calorimeter, knowing that it is an isolated system, which does not allow the entry or exit of heat, we can conclude that the heat released is equal to the heat absorbed.

In conclusion, the thermodynamic system is constituted by the chemical reaction. In this case, the surrounding is made up of water and the calorimeter itself.

If the reaction is exothermic, the heat released by the reaction will be absorbed by the surrounding . Then, the final temperature will be higher than the initial temperature. If the reaction is endothermic, the heat absorbed by the reaction will be released by the environment. So, the final temperature will be lower than the initial temperature.

However, one structural representation for butane is CH3CH2CH2CH3, while isobutane can be described using the structural formula (CH3)3CH.

The mass fractions of a mixture of gases are 15 percent nitrogen, 5 percent helium, 60 percent methane, and 20 percent ethane with a total mixture molecular weight of 16.12 kg/kmole. Determine the mole fraction of each constituent, the partial pressure of each constituent when the mixture pressure is 1200 kPa and the apparent specific heats of the mixture when the mixture is at room temperature.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

mass fraction N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : 15 : 5 : 60 : 20

mole fraction  N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : 15/28 : 5/4 : 60/16 : 20/30

mole fraction  N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : .5357  : 1.25 : 3.75 : .67

Total mole fractions = .5357 + 1.25 + 3.75 + 0.67 = 6.2057

mole fraction of N₂ =  .5357 / 6.2057 = .0877

mole fraction of He = 1.25 / 6.2057 = .20

mole fraction of CH₄ = 3.75 / 6.2057 = .6043

mole fraction of C₂H₆ = .67 / 6.2057 = .108

Partial pressure = total pressure x mole fraction

Partial pressure of N₂ = 1200 kPa  x .0877 = 105.24 kPa

Partial pressure of He = 1200 kPa  x .20  = 240 kPa

Partial pressure of CH₄ = 1200 kPa  x  .6043  = 725.16 kPa

Partial pressure of C₂H₆ = 1200 kPa  x .108    = 129.6 kPa

A student assembles ball bearings that are 0.19 inches in diameter into an FCC lattice using glue which makes for a 0.001 inch thick bond between bearings. What is the lattice constant in inches of this FCC crystal? Three significant digits and fixed point notation.

Answers

Answer:

the lattice constant is 0.270 inches

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

For FCC lattice;

a = b = c, ∝ = β = α = 90°

from the image below;

AC = 0.19 + 0.19/2 + 0.19/2 + 2(0.001) inch

AC = 0.19 + 0.095 + 0.095 + 0.002

AC = 0.382 inches

Now using Pythagoras theorem

AC² = AB² + BC²

since a = b = c

AC² = a² + a²

(0.382)² = 2a²

2a² = 0.145924

a² = 0.145924 / 2

a² = 0.072962

a = √0.072962

a =  0.27011 ≈ 0.270 inches

Therefore, the lattice constant is 0.270 inches

Liquid octane CH3CH26CH3 will react with gaseous oxygen O2 to produce gaseous carbon dioxide CO2 and gaseous water H2O. Suppose 2.3 g of octane is mixed with 12.4 g of oxygen. Calculate the minimum mass of octane that could be left over by the chemical reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answers

Answer: Octane will be used completely.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

[tex]\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}[/tex]    

[tex]\text{Moles of octane}=\frac{2.3g}{114g/mol}=0.0202moles[/tex]

[tex]\text{Moles of oxygen}=\frac{12.4g}{32g/mol}=0.388moles[/tex]

The balanced chemical reaction will be

[tex]2C_8H_{18}+25O_2(g)\rightarrow 16CO_2(g)+18H_2O(g)[/tex]  

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of octane require = 25 moles of [tex]O_2[/tex]

Thus 0.0202 moles of octane will require=[tex]\frac{25}{2}\times 0.0202=0.2525moles[/tex]  of [tex]O_2[/tex]

Thus octane is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and [tex]O_2[/tex] is the excess reagent.  

Thus octane will be used completely.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction may be assumed in chemical equilibrium, we can write up the rate law as shown below:

[tex]r=-k_1[NO]+k_{-1}[N_2O_2][/tex]

However, since the rate of reaction at equilibrium is zero, due to the fact that the concentrations remains the same, we can write:

[tex]0=-k_1[NO]+k_{-1}[N_2O_2][/tex]

Which can be also written as:

[tex]k_1[NO]=k_{-1}[N_2O_2][/tex]

Then, we solve for the concentration of NO to obtain:

[tex][NO]=\frac{k_{-1}}{k_1} [N_2O_2][/tex]

The following aqueous solutions of are mixed: 100.0 mL of 1.00 M lithium bromide and 100.0 mL of 1.00 M lead (II) nitrate. In an organized and clear manner, show all of your work and answers for this problem on the uploaded work. (a) Write the molecular equation for this reaction. (b) Write the total ionic chemical equation for this reaction. (c) Write the net ionic chemical equation for this reaction. (d) Identify the spectator ions in this reaction. (e) Identify the limiting reactant. (f) Determine the mass of solid product that is formed?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

(a) When lithium bromide (LiBr) solution is mixed with a solution of lead (II) nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂), lithium nitrate (LiNO₃) and lead (II) bromide (PbBr₂) are formed, according to the following molecular equation:

2LiBr(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) → 2LiNO₃(aq) + PbBr₂(s) ↓

As the product PbBr₂ is an insoluble solid, it precipitates (↓).

(b) The total ionic equation is written with all ions of the reaction - no matter if they participate in the precipitate formation or not:

2Li⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) + Pb²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq) → 2Li⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq) + PbBr₂(s)

(c) The net ionic equation is written including only the ions which participate in the precipitate formation. In this case, the precipitate is PbBr₂, and it is formed by Pb²⁺ and Br⁻ ions:

Pb²⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) → PbBr₂(s)

(d) The spectator ions are those which do not participate in the formation of the precipitate. From the total ionic equation, we can see that Li⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions are repeated on both sides of the equation, so they are redundant. Thus, the spectator ions are Li⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions.

(e) To identify the limiting reactant, we first calculate the moles of each compound as the product of the solution concentration and volume:

For LiBr:

C = 1.00 M = 1 mol/L

V = 100.0 mL x 1 L/1000 mL = 0.1 L

moles of LiBr = 0.1 L x 1.00 mol/L = 0.1 mol

The same for Pb(NO₃)₂:

C = 1.00 M = 1 mol/L

V = 100.0 mL x 1 L/1000 mL = 0.1 L

moles of Pb(NO₃)₂  = 0.1 L x 1.00 mol/L = 0.1 mol

From the total ionic equation, we can see that 2 mol of LiBr reacts with 1 mol of Pb(NO₃)₂ to give 1 mol of PbBr₂ (solid product). The stoichiometric molar ratio is 2 mol LiBr/1 mol Pb(NO₃)₂ and we have 0.1 mol of each reactant (0.1 mol LiBr/0.1 mol Pb(NO₃)₂= 1). As 2 mol LiBr/mol Pb(NO₃)₂ > 1 mol LiBr/mol Pb(NO₃)₂, LiBr is the limiting reactant.

(f) From the total ionic equation, we know that 2 moles of LiBr produce 1 mol of PbBr₂. To determine the mass of solid product (PbBr₂) formed, we first multiply the stoichiometric ratio (1 mol PbBr₂/2 mol LiBr) by the actual number of moles of limiting reactant we have (0.1 mol):

moles of PbBr₂ = 0.1 mol LiBr x (1 mol PbBr₂/2 mol LiBr) = 0.05 mol PbBr₂

Finally, we convert the moles of PbBr₂ to gram by using the molar mass of the compound:

Molar mass PbBr₂ = 207.2 g/mol + (2 x 79.9 g/mol) = 367 g/mol

grams of PbBr₂ = 0.05 mol x 367 g/mol = 18.35 g

Answers

Answer:

71.8%

Explanation:

The percent yield of a process or a chemical reaction is calculated as:

percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100%

From the problem we have:

theoretical yield = 3.9 kg

actual yield = 2.8 kg

Thus, we calculate the yield of H₂SO₄ production as follows:

percent yield = (2.8 kg/3.9 kg) x 100 = 71.79 % ≅ 71.8%
