Hey umm im confused in question number 30 why do we use the moles of the ACID not alcohol? :/ and can anyone pleaase explain me questions number 4, 5 and 12 in the same exam? Thank u

umm its not an option.. i asked my teacher the samething, he said that we have to think of the acid as a limiting agent..

 

[HubbaBubba]

q31 answer is C ? :S

Nope it's B.
Sulfur trioxide is acidic, and ammonia is a base so that's an acid-base reaction. If you check the equation no oxidation or reduction takes place in any of the elements.

15 Use of the Data Booklet is relevant to this question.
The combustion of fossil fuels is a major source of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide, with a
consequential rise in global warming. Another significant contribution to carbon dioxide levels
comes from the thermal decomposition of limestone, in the manufacture of cement and of lime for
agricultural purposes.
Cement works roast 1000 million tonnes of limestone per year and a further 200 million tonnes is
roasted in kilns to make lime.
What is the total annual mass output of carbon dioxide (in million tonnes) from these two
processes?
A 440 B 527 C 660 D 880

Q4..

Hey umm im confused in question number 30 why do we use the moles of the ACID not alcohol? :/ and can anyone pleaase explain me questions number 4, 5 and 12 in the same exam? Thank u

add all the electrons..
3 x 8 from oxygen
6 from carbon
1 from hydrogen
1 because its an anion (negatively charged.. so must have an excess electrons, and since it requires 2 anions to react with Ca its must be -1)
adding up we have 32, so answer is C

Q5
the answer is D, since when the difference between molecules of a liquid and a gas is the forces holding the liquid molecules together so, in this case hydrogen bonding
so just vaporize a mole of liquid hydrogen halide and note down the energy change that would also be an indicator to the strength of the (hydrogen)bonds

For question 23
"Ethene is half of the products. So there must be 2 ethene molecules and 1 propene and methane. 3+1+(2x2)=8. The compound that is cracked must contain 8 carbons."
For question 33.
Option number 2 is wrong because that is the wrong equation. Because pV=nRT (n=moles) not pV=MRT (M=molar mass)
For question 35
Im little bit confused aswell. Btw Nitrogen goes from -3 to 0 cause its more electronegative the Cl. Hope that helps a little.

Its C aluminum carbide
Al4C3+12H2O------->4AL(OH)3+3CH4

CH4+2O2----->2H2O+CO2

Moles of CO2=72/24000=0.003
moles of Al4C3= 0.003/3=0.001 (as ratio of Al4C3:CH4 is 1:3)
now mass of Al4C3= 0.001 into (27+27+27+27+12+12+12)=0.144g

Alice there were the other ways as well
and you dnt have to say i did it i aint gonna sue you!

what about question 34 in may june 07? Thanks

You see the total amount of limestone roasted is 1200 (1000+200)
Now we make the equation
CaCO3 => CaO + CO2
We find the moles of limestone = 1200/(40.1+12+ 16 x 3) = 11.98
Since the mole ratio of CaCO3:C02 is 1:1, we find the mass, we multiply by the mr of co2 which is 44. 11.9 x 44 = 527.47. Ans B
