Dimethyl ether, a useful organic solvent, is prepared in two steps. In the first step, carbon dioxide and hydrogen react to form methanol and water: CO₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) CH₂OH(1) + H₂O(1) In the second step, methanol reacts to form dimethyl ether and water: 2 CH₂OH(1)→ CH₂OCH3(g) + H₂O(1) Calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of dimethyl ether from carbon dioxide and hydrogen from these reactions. Round your answer to the nearest kJ. เม kJ AH=-131. kJ Ś ΔΗ= 8. kJ
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. %
Butane, C4H10C4H10, is a component of natural gas that is used as fuel for cigarette lighters. The balanced equation of the complete combustion of butane is 2C4H10(g)+13O2(g)→8CO2(g)+10H2O(l)2C4H10(g)+13O2(g)→8CO2(g)+10H2O(l) At 1.00 atmatm and 23 ∘C∘C, what is the volume of carbon dioxide formed by the combustion of 2.00 gg of butane?
Given: 2 NaOH(aq) + CuSO4(aq) ⟶⟶Na2SO4(aq) + Cu(OH)2(s) If you want to form 5.00 g of sodium sulfate, what mass of sodium hydroxide would you need to react?
The Apollo 13 mission astronauts are running out of oxygen and need to get rid of the excess carbon dioxide. You know that sodium hydroxide can remove carbon dioxide from the spacecraft cabin. The filter which they had been using is fully saturated and no longer works. The astronauts have a 5 kg container of sodium hydroxide on the ship. The reaction to neutralize the air, remove carbon dioxide with sodium hydroxide is shown below CO2(g) + 2NaOH(s) ⟶⟶ Na2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) The astronauts have 2 days left before they land on earth. You know that there are three astronauts, and each astronaut emits roughly 500. g of carbon dioxide each day. Is there enough sodium hydroxide in the cabin to cleanse the cabin air of the carbon dioxide, or are the astronauts doomed? Calculate how much sodium hydroxide is required to remove all the carbon dioxide from the three astronauts. Be sure to show all your work!
