Question
Heptane (C7H16) gas reacts with oxygen gas to give carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. If you mix heptane and oxygen in the correct stoichiometric ratio to make the reaction go to completion without any excess reagent, and if the total pressure of the mixture is 705 mmHg, what is the partial pressure of heptane?
Enter your answer in units of mmHg.

In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 0.50kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO2 is 2.0 kg/m^3 .arrow_forward

Based L-atm on experimentally collected data, the student calculates R to equal 0.0832 mol·K L-atm Ideal gas law constant from literature: 0.08206 mol·K (a) Determine the percent error for the student's R-value. Percent error = % (b) For the statements below, identify the possible source(s) of error for this student's trial. The student notices a large air bubble in the eudiometer after collecting the hydrogen gas, but does not dislodge it. The student does not clean the zinc metal with sand paper. The student does not equilibrate the water levels within the eudiometer and the beaker at the end of the reaction. The water level in the eudiometer is 1-inch above the water level in the beaker. The student uses the barometric pressure for the lab to calculate R.arrow_forward
