Balance an symbol equation between methane and oxygen.

what is the balanced symbol equation for iron oxide add magnesium and how do i figure it out

The fHo of Ethanol (CH3CH2OH) (l)), Water (H2O (l)) and carbon Dioxide (CO2(g)) at 298K are respectively; -277.1 kJ mol-1, -285.8 kJ mol-1 and –393.5 kJ mol-1. Given that the latent heat of fusion of water is 6.02 kJ mol-1 and the average heat capacity of water is 75.3 J K-1 mol-1 how much ice (in grams) would be needed to put in a measure of whisky (25ml, 40% ethanol by volume) such that all the enthalpy of combustion of the ethanol is taken up raising the temperature of the ice to body temperature (35C). Density of ethanol = 0.789 g cm-3 (16 marks)

A catalyst consisting of palladium on an α-Al2O3 support, Pd/α-Al2O3, has been used for the oxidation of CO at room temperature:

Equation 1 CO(g) + ½O2(g) = CO2(g)

Under certain conditions, the oxidation reaction was found to involve competitive adsorption of the reactants with CO being non-dissociatively adsorbed and oxygen undergoing dual-site adsorption:

Equation 2 ka CO(g) + * ↔ CO(ad) Kd

Equation 3 ka’ O2(g) + 2* ↔ O(ad) + O(ad) kd’

The rate-limiting step is then a bimolecular reaction between CO(ad) and O(ad):

Equation 4 CO(ad) + O(ad) → CO (ad)

Carbon dioxide can be assume to be weakly adsorbed and, as a consequence, desorbs as quickly as it is formed.

(i) For the competitive adsorption of CO show that the following expression can be derived by equating the rates of adsorption and desorption of CO:

Equation 5 θCO = bCOpCO(1 – θCO – θO)

Where θCO and θO are the fractional surface coverages of CO and O, respectively. The quantity bCO (= ka/kd) is the adsorption coefficient for CO and pCO is the partial pressure of CO. (Hint In your working you should represent the total number of adsorption sites by N and provide expressions for both the rate of adsorption and the rate of desorption of CO.)

(ii) Equation 5 can be used in a more detailed analysis of the mechanism to derive the following two expressions:

Equation 6 θCO = (bCOpCO) / (1 + bCOpCO + (bO2pO2)1/2)

and

Equation 7 θO = θCO((bO2pO2)1/2 / bCOpCO)

where b02(= ka’ / kd’) and pO2 are, respectively, the adsorption coefficient and partial pressure of O2.

Given Equations 6 and 7, in conjunction with the information about the rate-limiting step at the start of this question, show that the theoretical rate equation takes the form:

Equation 8 r = (kθbCOpCO(bO2pO2)1/2) / {1 + bCOpCO + (bO2pO2)1/2}^2

(iii) The experimental rate equation for the CO oxidation reaction, under conditions for which the mechanism given in part (ii) is valid, takes the form:

Equation 9 r = (kR(pO2)1/2) / pCO

How can this result be rationalised in terms of the theoretical rate equation (Equation 8) that has been derived for the mechanism?

i need to be able to write the formula for each compund based on the name and ionic nomenclature as well so for instance CuSO4 and Iron(ll) oxide

What happens to stearic acid and paraffin wax at a molecular level and the velocity of molecules when it solidifies and melts?

Will Cu(OH)2 react with dilute sulfuric acid?

answer in moles

At a pressure of 1 atmosphere and a temperature of 25 °C, 500 cm3 of the gas HX has a mass of 0.400 g. Calculate the value of the relative atomic mass of X and hence identify element X. (You should assume that 1 mole of gas occupies 24.5 dm3, and 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3. Assume the relative atomic mass of hydrogen to be 1.0.)

When you add elements how do you write the equation? URGENT!
