(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_forwardWhat is the biological importance of stratospheric ozone?

- Dinitrogen monoxide, N2O (commonly called nitrous oxide), is prepared by the careful decomposition of ammonium nitrate and is used as an oxidizing agent in rocket engines as well as a weak general anesthetic (where you may know it as laughing gas). However, it is also known to be a powerful greenhouse gas. In a Science magazine article, it was stated that Human activities may be causing an unprecedented rise in the terrestrial N2O source. Marine N2O production may also rise substantially as result of eutrophication, warming and ocean acidification. [L. A. Codispoti, Science, Vol. 327, pp. 1339-1340, 2010.] The powerful greenhouse gas N2O is used as a propellant in cans of instant whipped cream. (a) Draw a Lewis electron dot structure for N2O, and specify the formal charge on each atom and the molecular geometry. (b) The atom connections are NNO. Why is the connection NON not likely?
