Hey guys, I need some help with chemistry. 1. Is the reaction

1. yes. because it's hot.
2. ~1.118 mol/dm^3
3. none, because the formula is wrong.

also, you must be 18 to post on this site.

>Is the reaction when ethanol is burned in oxygen exothermic? Explain why / why not.

First balance the reaction of EtOH and O2
C2H6O + (3/2)O2 -> 2 CO2 + 3H2O
Then apply delta_H = [bonds broken - bonds formed].

Or, experimentally, measure the heat released on exhaustive combustion.

>What is the concentration of hydrochloric acid solution if you mixed 0.14 liters, 2 mol / dm 3 hydrochloric acid (HCl) with 0.2 liter, 0.5 mol / dm 3 hydrochloric acid.
I told you how to answer this on /sci/ already, but I did not bump.

>C2H6O + (3)O2 -> 2 CO2 + 3H2O
well that's obviously not balanced
2C on each side
6H on each side
7H on each side

I'm too drunk, I greentexed wrong, but this
>C2H6O + (3)O2 -> 2 CO2 + 3H2O
looks ok

1. exothermic due to the fact energy is released.
2. find moles of each, 2*0.14=0.28mols and 0.2*0.5=0.1mols add up the volumes and moles of HCl in solution, 0.14+0.2=0.34L and 0.28+0.1=0.38mols. concentration is just mols per litre so 0.38/0.34=1.12mols/L
3. need to find mols of ethanol, so mass divided by molar mass 1000/46.06=21.71mols. reaction is two to one (one glucose makes two ethanol) 21.71/2=10.85mols of glucose, then mass= moles times molar mass, 10.85*180.15=1955.6g=1.955kg
