Question 4

A graduated cylinder initially contains 32.5 mL of liquid. After removing some, it reads 23.5 mL. If the liquid is $$\mathrm{C$$_{16}$$H_{34}O_3$}$$ with a density of $$0.91\ \mathrm{g/mL}$$, what is the mass of the extracted liquid?

Accepted Answer

$$8.19\ \mathrm{g}$$

Question 5

Given the combustion reaction $$\mathrm{C$$_{16}$$H_{34}O_3$ + 23\ O_2$ \rightarrow 16\ CO_2$ + 17\ H_2O}$$, how many grams of $$\mathrm{O_2$}$$ are required to combust $$9.0\ \mathrm{mL} of$$ $$\mathrm{C$$_{16}$$H_{34}O_3$} ($$density $$0.91\ \mathrm{g/mL}$$, molar mass $$274\ \mathrm{g/mol}$$)?

Accepted Answer

$$22\ \mathrm{g}$$

Question 6

Combustion analysis of $$63.8\ \mathrm{mg} of a $$compound containing only C, H, and O produces $$145.0\ \mathrm{mg}$$ $$\mathrm{CO_2$}$$ and $$59.38\ \mathrm{mg}$$ $$\mathrm{H_2O}. $$What is the empirical formula of the compound?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{C_3H_6O}$$

Question 8

In the reaction $$\mathrm{2H_2 + O_2$ \rightarrow 2H_2O}$$, if you start with $$4$$ moles of $$\mathrm{H_2$}$$ and $$1$$ mole of $$\mathrm{O_2$}$$, which is the limiting reactant?

Accepted Answer

$$\mathrm{O_2$}$$

Question 9

A reaction uses $$2.00\ \mathrm{g} of$$ $$\mathrm{NH_3$} ($$molar mass $$17\ \mathrm{g/mol}) $$and $$4.00\ \mathrm{g} of$$ $$\mathrm{O_2$} ($$molar mass $$32\ \mathrm{g/mol}) to $$form $$\mathrm{NO}$$ and $$\mathrm{H_2O}. $$Which is the limiting reactant?
