A household water heater containing 50 gallons (227 L) of water is heated burning natural gas (methane, molar mass = 16.043 g mol-1) via the following reaction: CH4(g) + O2(g) CO2(g) + H20(O A,H = -891 kJ mol-1 What mass of methane, in units of g, is needed to heat the 227 L of water in the heater from 25.0°C to 44.0°C? Assume: • the heater is 100% efficient in its use of heat energy • no heat is lost to the surroundings specific heat of water is: 4.184 Jg-1 °C-1 density of water is: 0.9970 g mL¯1
ebixoiC 4 During the production of ammonia, hydrogen is produced from the steam reforming of methane. In the reformer methane gas is reacted with excess water and the resulting mixture is found to contain 12 kg of hydrogen and 15 kg water. Assuming all the methane is reacted calculate the amount of water used.
Soda ash (sodium carbonate) is widely used in the manufacture of glass. Prior to the environmental movement much of it was produced by the following reaction. CaCO3 + 2 NaCl → Na2CO3 + CaCl2 Unfortunately, the byproduct calcium chloride is of little use and was dumped into rivers, creating a pollution problem. As a result of the environmental movement, all of these plants closed. Assume that 125g of calcium carbonate (100.09 g/mol) and 125 g of sodium chloride (58.44 g/mol) are allowed to react. Determine how many grams of useful sodium carbonate (105.99 g/mol) will be produced. How many grams of useless calcium chloride (110.98 g/mol) will be produced? You should also determine how many grams of excess reactants are left (indicate which one is the limiting reactant)
Be sure to answer all parts. Nitroglycerin (C;H;N3O9) is a powerful explosive. Its decomposition may be represented by 4C H;N3O9 6N2 + 12CO, +10H,0 02 This reaction generates a large amount of heat and gaseous products. It is the sudden formation of these gases, together with their rapid expansion, that produces the explosion. (a) What is the maximum amount of O, in grams that can be obtained from 8.00 x 10 g of nitroglycerin? (b) Calculate the percent vield in this reaction if the amount of O, generated is found to be 26.3 g. 0/0
10 Ethylene (CH,CH,) is the starting point for a wide array of industrial chemical syntheses. For example, worldwide about 8.0 × 10º kg of polyethylene are made from ethylene each year, for use in everything from household plumbing to artificial joints. Natural sources of ethylene are entirely inadequate to meet world demand, so ethane (CH,CH,) from natural gas is "cracked" in refineries at high temperature in a kinetically complex reaction that produces ethylene gas and hydrogen gas. Suppose an engineer studying ethane cracking fills a 60.0 L reaction tank with 22.0 atm of ethane gas and raises the temperature to 500. °C. She believes K =0.050 at this temperature. Calculate the percent by mass of ethylene the engineer expects to find in the equilibrium gas mixture. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Note for advanced students: the engineer may be mistaken about the correct value of K , and the mass percent of ethylene you calculate may not be what she actually observes. %
The human body burns glucose (C6H₁2O6) for energy according to this chemical reaction: C6H12O6 +60₂-6CO₂ + 6H₂O The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O). Interestingly, all of the carbon dioxide and much of the water exits the body through the lungs: on every breath, the average person exhales 500. mL of air, which is typically enriched to 4% CO₂ and 5% water vapor by volume. In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9 kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 1.00 kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO₂ is 2.0 kg/m³. 0 ☐ ☐x10 X

Chemical energy is released or absorbed from reactions in various forms. The most easily measurable form of energy comes in the form of heat, or enthalpy. The enthalpy of a reaction can be calculated from the heats of formation of the substances involved in the reaction: ΔΗn = ΣηΔΗ; (products) – Σπ.ΔΗ (reactants) where n represents the stoichiometric coefficients. Part A Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction Use the following data: ΔΗ; Substance (kJ/mol) A B C D ΔΗ; = -237 -385 205 -515 Submit Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. ► View Available Hint(s) μА Value Previous Answers 2A + B2C + 2D Review | Constants I Periodic Table Units ?
1. More than 2000 years ago human cultures figured out a way to produce iron metal from rocks containing iron ores. This iron could be worked by a blacksmith (repeated heating and hammering) to make iron metal pure enough for creating useful tools (even Samurai swords). This direct heating technique was common up until about 200 years ago when people found a better way to obtain iron metal. When hematite, Fe2O3(s), is strongly heated in a blast furnace in the presence of charcoal (carbon), pure iron metal is obtained.
