When CH₄ is burnt in excess O₂ following products are formed,
CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O
According to equation 1 mole of CH₄ (16 g) reacts with 2 moles of O₂ to produce 1 mole of CO₂ and 2 moles of H₂O. Hence the products are,
1 mole of CO₂ and 2 moles of H₂O
Converting 1 mole CO₂ to grams;
As,
Mass = Moles × M.mass
Mass = 1 mol × 44 g.mol⁻¹
Mass = 40 g of CO₂
Converting 2 moles of H₂O to grams,
Mass = 2 mol × 18 g.mol⁻¹
Mass = 36 g of H₂O
Total grams of products;
Mass of CO₂ = 44 g
+ Mass of H₂O = 36 g
-------------
Total = 80 g of Product
Result:
80 grams of product is formed when 16 grams of CH₄ is burnt in excess of Oxygen.
The material that has been widely used in casting has been copper. Thus, option C is correct.
Casting has been the process of molding the liquid into a specific shape with the mold. The casting involves the heating of elements and converting them into liquid. The liquid has been poured into the mold and cooling results in the casted material.
The casted material has been selected based on the boiling temperature, cooling temperature, resistivity, cost-effectiveness, and damping ability.
The material that has been consisted of these characteristics has been copper. Thus, copper has been commonly used for casting. Thus, option C is correct.
