Consider the following thermochemical reaction for kerosene 2C12H26+37O2=24CO2+15026kj.
a. when 21.3g of CO2 are made, how much heat is released?
b. if 500.00kj of heat are released by thye reaction, how many grams of C12H26 have been consumed.?
c. if this reactionwere being used to generate heat, how many grams of C12H26 would have to be reacted to generate enough heat to raise the temperature of 750g of liquid water from 10 degrees celcius to 90 degrees celcius

Thermochemistry has to do with  heat evolved or absorbed in a chemical reactions. Thermochemical equations are equations in which the heat of reaction is included in the reaction equation. The reaction of moles and heat of reaction is important here.

This question has to do with thermochemistry and thermochemical equations.

The answers to each of the questions are shown below;

a) 300.52 KJ

b) 11.39 g

c) 5.78 g

The equation of the thermochemical reaction is;

2C12H26 + 37O2> 24CO2 + 15026KJ

Number of moles of CO2 released = 21.3g/44g/mol = 0.48 moles

From the reaction equation;

15026KJ is released when 24 moles of CO2 is released

x KJ is released when  0.48 moles of CO2 is released

x = 15026KJ  * 0.48 moles/24 moles

x = 300.52 KJ

b) If 2 moles of C12H26 released 15026KJ of heat

     x moles of C12H26  released 500.00KJ

x = 2 * 500.00KJ/15026KJ

x = 0.067 moles

Mass of C12H26 consumed =  0.067 moles * 170 g/mol = 11.39 g

c) Heat gained by water = heat released by combustion of kerosene

Heat gained by water = 0.75 Kg * 4200  * (90 -10)

Heat gained by water = 252 KJ

If 2 moles of C12H26  produced 15026KJ

x moles of C12H26  produces 252 KJ

x = 2 * 252/15026

x = 0.034 moles

Mass of C12H26   = 0.034 moles *  170 g/mol = 5.78 g

idk what the question is about

the density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3

the relation between density and mass and volume is

density = mass / volume

given :

mass of gold = 13 g

density = 13g / volume = 19.3

volume = 13 /19.3 = 0.67 cm^3

thus volume of gold nugget = 0.67 cm^3
