|Decaborane, BH14, was used as a fuel for rockets in the 1950s. It reacts violently with oxygen, O to pro- B.O3 and water. Calculate the percentage by mass of BH14 in a fuel mixture designed to ensure that B1oH14 and O2 run out at exactly the same time |(Such a mixture minimizes the mass of fuel that a rocket must carry.)

suppose a student reacts 1.57 g Ca with O2 gas. In his/her calculations however S/he mistakenly calculate the theoretical yield with 1.97 g Ca. Will the theoretical yield of CaO be too high, too low, or unaffected?
E-85 is an alternative fuel for automobiles and light trucks that consists of 85.0% (by volume) ethanol (C2H5OH), and 15.0% gasoline. When ethanol burns completely it produces CO2 and H2O. The balanced equation for the burning of ethanol isC2H5OH+3O2-->2CO2+3H2OThe density of ethanol is 0.790 g/mL. How many moles of carbon dioxide are produced by the complete combustion of the quantity of ethanol in 8.00 gallons of E-85 fuel? _mol CO2

A 235.2-g sample of ground water is analyzed for calcium. The Ca2+ in the sample is first precipitated and filtered-off as NH4CaPO4·7H2O. This precipitate is dried and heated, releasing water and ammonia to yield anhydrous calcium pyrophosphate (Ca2P2O7). The mass of Ca2P2O7 obtained is 0.0234 g.Give the calcium content of the ground water in parts per million (to three significant figures).
