- Propane, C3H8, is a hydrocarbon that is commonly used as a fuel. (a) Write a balanced equation for the complete combustion of propane gas. (b) Calculate the volume of air at 25 C and 1.00 atmosphere that is needed to completely combust 25.0 grams of propane. Assume that air is 21.0 percent O2 by volume. (Hint: we will see how to do this calculation in a later chapter on gasesfor now use the information that 1.00 L of air at 25 C and 1.00 atm contains 0.275 g of 2 per liter.) (c) The heat of combustion of propane is 2,219.2 kJ/mol. Calculate the heat of formation, Hf of propane given that Hf of H2O(l)=285.8 kJ/mol and Hf of CO2(g)=393.5 kJ/mol. (d) Assuming that all of the heat released in burning 25.0 grams of propane is transferred to 4.00 kilograms of water, calculate the increase in temperature of the water.arrow_forwardA car releases 55.0g of CF2Cl2 each month.

- 19. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is _CO2 (g) + _H₂O (1)→ __C6H1206 (s) + (C6H12O6 is glucose, the simplest sugar) a. Balance the chemical equation above by filling in the blanks. b. According to onetreeplanted.org, the average tree (across all climates and sizes) removes 10 kg of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere every year. Based on this, what mass of glucose is produced annually by the average tree? O2 (g) c. Teak is a common species of tropical tree. The graph below shows the amount of CO₂ absorbed by teak forests in tons of CO₂ per hectare of forest per year, according to the climate region where the forests are found (dry = low rainfall, humid=high rainfall). Looking at your photosynthesis equation again, what does this data suggest about which reactant is the limiting reactant for teak trees? Explain. C Teak Carbon sequestration rate (tons CO₂ ha -1yr -1) 10 10 20 Tropical humid Tropical dry Aboveground biomass, 0-20 years Belowground biomass, 0 -20 yearsarrow_forward4. Methanol, CH;OH, can be produced by the following reaction: CO + 2He → CH;OH a) Hydrogen at STP flows into a reactor at a rate of 16.0 L/min. Carbon monoxide at STP flows into the reactor at a rate of 25.0 L/min. If 5.30 g of methanol is actually produced per minute, how much methanol may be produced theoretically? b) What is the proportion of actual to the theoretical yield, expressed as a percentage?arrow_forwardThe atmosphere slowly oxidizes hydrocarbons in a number of steps that eventually convert the hydrocarbon into carbon dioxide and water. The overall reaction of a number of such steps for methane gas is:CH4(g) + 5 O2(g) + 5 NO(g) ------> CO2(g) + H2O(g) + 5 NO2(g) + 2 OH(g) Suppose that an atmospheric chemist combines 155 mL of methane at STP, 885 mL of oxygen at STP, and 55.5 mL of NO at STP in a 2.0-L flask. The flask stands for several weeks at 275 K. If the reaction reaches 90.0% of completion (90.0% of the limiting reactant is consumed), what is the partial pressure of each of the reactants and products in the flask at 275 K? What is the total pressure in the flask?arrow_forward
