Write a balanced equation for the complete combustion of 2,3,3-trimethylpentane. Use the molecular formula for the alkane (C before H) and the smallest possible integer coefficients.

C8H18 + 25/2O2 > 8CO2 + 9H2O

Explanation:

2,3,3-trimethylpentane has the molecular formula C8H18.

The general formula for the combustion of an alkane is;

CnH2n+2 + 3n+1/2O2 >nCO2 + (n+1)H2O

In writing a balanced chemical reaction equation, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side of the reaction equation must be the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side of the reaction equation.

For C8H18, the balanced chemical reaction equation for combustion is;

C8H18 + 25/2O2 > 8CO2 + 9H2O

1.consider the following balanced equation and answer parts a through. show calculations for each part.  

3 ag(s) + 4 hno3(aq) → 3 agno3(aq) + no(g) + 2 h2o(l)  

a. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 3 moles of ag with excess hno3. if the number to the left of the compound represents the number of moles of the compound which are present, then 3 moles of ag react with 4 moles hno3 to produce 3 moles agno3 (aq).

so the answer to a would be 3 moles.

b. calculate the number of moles of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.  

i'm not sure how to plug in the grams of silver into an equation using moles to find how many moles are produced.

c. calculate the number of grams of agno3 produced by the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3  

d. calculate the number of moles of no produced as a byproduct of the reaction of 108 grams of ag with excess hno3.  

e. calculate the number of grams of no produced as a byproduct starting with 108 grams of ag and excess hno3.  

explanation:

answer is: nuclear fusion produces elements that are heavier than helium.

nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy.  

for example, fusion of hydrogen atoms at the sun.  

this fusion nuclear reaction is in the inner core of the sun and hydrogen (atomic number 1) is conveted into helium (atomic number 2).  

the inner core is the central region of the sun and all solar energy is produced in the core by nuclear fusion.
