Write the balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of adipic acid, an organic acid containing 49.31% C, 6.90% H, and the remainder O, by mass.
The gaseous hydrocarbon acetylene, C2H2, is used in welders’ torches because of the large amount of heat released when acetylene burns with oxygen. :math>2C2H2(g)+5O2(g)4CO2(g)+2H2O(g) w many grams of oxygen gas are needed for the complete combustion of 150 g of acetylene?
A possible practical way to eliminate oxides of nitrogen(such as NO2 ) from automobile exhaust gases uses cyanuricacid, C3N3(OH)3 . When heated to the relatively lowtemperature of 625°F, cyanuric acid converts to gaseousisocyanic acid (HNCO). Isocyanic acid reacts with NO2 inthe exhaust to form nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and water,all of which are normal constituents of the air. (a) Write balanced equations for these two reactions. (b) If the process described earlier became practical, howmuch cyanuric acid (in kilograms) would be requiredto absorb the 1.71010kgNO2 generated annuallyin auto exhaust in the United States?
When potassium chlorate is subjected to high temperatures, it decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen. (a) Write a balanced equation for the decomposition. (b) In this decomposition, the actual yield is 83.2%. If 198.5 g of oxygen are produced, how much potassium chlorate decomposed?
onsider the balanced chemical equation :math>4Al(s)+3O2(g)2Al2O3(s). at mole ratio would you use to calculate how many moles of oxygen gas would be needed to react completely with a given number of moles of aluminum metal? What mole ratio would you use to calculate the number of moles of product that would be expected if a given number of moles of aluminum metal reacts completely?
Methanol, CH3OH, is used in racing cars because it is a clean-burning fuel. It can be made by this reaction: CO(g)+2H2(g)CH3OH(l) What is the percentage yield if 5.0103gH2 reacts with excess CO to form 3.5104gCH3OH ?
Freon-12, CCl2F2, is prepared from CCl4 by reaction with HF. The other product of this reaction is HCl. Outline the steps needed to determine the percent yield of a reaction that produces 12.5 g of CCl2F2 from 32.9 g of Cd4. Freon-12 has been banned and is no longer used as a refrigerant because it catalyzes the decomposition of ozone and has a very long lifetime in the atmosphere. Determine the percent yield.
Write an equation from the following description: reactants are gaseous NH3 and O2, products are gaseous NO2 and liquid H2O, and the stoichiometric coefficients are 4, 7, 4, and 6, respectively.
4.17 Phosgene is a highly toxic gas that has been used as a chemical weapon at times in the past. It is now used in the manufacture of polycarbonates, which are used to make phone cases and plastic eyeglass lenses. Phosgene is produced by the reaction, CO+Cl2COCl2 . Given an excess of carbon monoxide, what mass of chlorine gas must be reacted to form 4.5 g of phosgene?
Sodium borate decahydrate, Na2B4O710H2O is commonly known as borax. It is used as a deodorizer and mold inhibitor. A sample weighing 15.86 g is heated until a constant mass is obtained indicating that all the water has been evaporated off. (a) What percent, by mass of Na2B4O710H2O is water? (b) What is the mass of the anhydrous sodium borate, Na2B4O7?
Citric acid, C6H5CH3, a component of jams, jellies, and fruity soft drinks, is prepared industrially via fermentation of sucrose by the mold Aspergillus niger . The equation representing this reaction is C12H22O11+H2O+3O22C6H8O7+4H2O What mass of citric acid is produced from exactly 1 metric ton (1.000103kg) of sucrose if the yield is 92.30%?
Small quantities of oxygen gas can be generated in the laboratory by the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. The unbalanced equation for the reaction is H2O2(uz/)-? H2O(/) + O2(g) Calculate the mass of oxygen produced when 10.00 g of hydrogen peroxide decomposes.
