Ne, c4h10, 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) at 1.00 atm and 23 ∘c, what is the volume of carbon dioxide formed by the combustion of 2.20 g of butane?

3.68 liters First, determine the number of moles of butane you have. Start with the atomic weights of the involved elements: Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass butane = 4*12.0107 + 10*1.00794 = 58.1222 g/mol Moles butane = 2.20 g / 58.1222 g/mol = 0.037851286 Looking at the balanced equation for the reaction which is 2 C4H10(g)+13 O2(g)→8 CO2(g)+10 H2O(l) It indicates that for every 2 moles of butane used, 8 moles of carbon dioxide is produced. Simplified, for each mole of butane, 4 moles of CO2 are produced. So let's calculate how many moles of CO2 we have: 0.037851286 mol * 4 = 0.151405143 mol The ideal gas law is PV = nRT where P = Pressure V = Volume n = number of moles R = Ideal gas constant ( 0.082057338 L*atm/(K*mol) ) T = absolute temperature (23C + 273.15K = 296.15K) So let's solve the formula for V and the calculate using known values: PV = nRT V = nRT/P V = (0.151405143 mol) (0.082057338 L*atm/(K*mol))(296.15K)/(1 atm) V = (3.679338871 L*atm)/(1 atm) V = 3.679338871 L So the volume of CO2 produced will occupy 3.68 liters.

Ibelieve its a because an empirical formula usually has a ch in it your options are a or b

Non metal is an element or substance that is not a metal metal is a solid material that is typically hard, shiny, malleable, fusible, and ductile, with good electrical and thermal conductivitymetalloid is an element (e.g., germanium or silicon) whose properties are intermediate between those of metals and solid nonmetals. they are electrical semiconductors.
