When propane is burned in pure oxygen, the reaction proceeds according to the equation:
C3H8(g) + 5 O2(g) ---> 3 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(g)
If such an oxidation is carried out on a gaseous mixture prepared by mixing 6.1 grams of
C3H8 and 11.0 liters of O2 measured at 1.0 atmosphere and 150 °C, what will be the total final
volume under the same conditions of measurement after the reaction is complete?
2. The Kb of ammonia is 1.8 x 10¯5; the Ksp of Mg(OH)2 is 1.1 x 10¯11.
(a) What is the pH of a solution which is 0.030 molar with respect to ammonia and
0.050 molar with respect to ammonium chloride?
(b) If 0.20 liter of this solution is mixed with 25 milliliters of 0.084-molar sodium
hydroxide solution, what is the resulting pH?
(c) Carry out calculations to determine whether a precipitate of magnesium
hydroxide should be expected to form if equal volumes of the solution prepared in
(b) and a 0.020-molar solution of magnesium chloride are mixed.
