The number of bonds in the molecule
If N = 5, which corresponds to pentane, what is the molecular formula of pentane?
C₅H₈
C₅H₁₀
C₅H₁₂
C₅H₁₄
Balance the following combustion reaction:
C6H14+O2→CO2+H2O
2C6H14+19O2 → 6CO2+14H2O
2C6H14+24O2 → 12CO2+7H2O
2C6H14+19O2 → 12CO2+14H2O
2C6H14+19O2 → 6CO2+7H2O
Calculate the molar mass of hexane (C₆H₁₄)
Molar mass:
Carbon (C) = 12.01 g/mol
Hydrogen (H) = 1.008 g/mol
72.06 g/mol
86.17 g/mol
100.12 g/mol
58.12 g/mol
Convert 100 g of hexane (C₆H₁₄) to moles.
(Molar mass of hexane = 86.17 g/mol)
0.86 moles
1.16 moles
1.39 moles
1.92 moles
Using the balanced equation you balanced before:
2 C₆H₁₄ + 19 O₂ → 12 CO₂ + 14 H₂O
How many moles of oxygen (O₂) are required to burn 1.16 moles of hexane (C₆H₁₄)?
9.50 moles O₂
10.25 moles O₂
11.03 moles O₂
12.50 moles O₂
Convert 11.03 moles of oxygen (O₂) to grams. The molar mass of O₂ is 32.00 g/mol.
321.0 g
353.0 g
288.5 g
375.2 g
Using the previously calculated 11.03 moles of O₂, how many liters of oxygen gas (O₂) is required to burn 100g of hexane (C₆H₁₄) at standard temperature and pressure (STP)?
(1 mole of gas = 22.4 L at STP)
123.5 L
220.6 L
247.0 L
275.8 L
If the volume of oxygen (O₂) required to burn 100g of hexane is 247.0 L, and assuming air is 21% oxygen and , how many liters of air are needed?
1176.2 L
950.6 L
576.6 L
220.2 L
Knowing that 100g of hexane (C₆H₁₄) represents 1.16 moles of hexane, how many moles of CO₂ are produced by burning 1.16 moles of hexane?
7.0 moles of CO₂
12.0 moles of CO₂
1.16 moles of CO₂
19.0 moles of CO₂
Convert 7 moles of CO₂ to volume at STP (0°C, 1 atm, 1 mole of gas = 22.4 L)
7.0 L
156.8 L
154.4 L
22.4 L
