mass of pentane : = 30.303 g
moles of Al₂(CO₃)₃ : = 0.147
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
1. Reaction
C₅H₁₂+8O₂→6H₂O+5CO₂.
45.3 g water
2. 2AlCl₃ + 3MgCO₃ → Al₂(CO₃)₃ + 3MgCl₂
37.2 MgCO₃
Required
mass of pentane
moles of Al₂(CO₃)₃
Solution
1. mol water = 45.3 : 18 g/mol = 2.52
From equation, mol ratio of C₅H₁₂ : H₂O = 1 : 6, so mol pentane :
= 1/6 x mol H₂O
= 1/6 x 2.52
= 0.42
Mass pentane :
= mol x MW
= 0.42 x 72.15 g/mol
= 30.303 g
2. mol MgCO₃ : 37.2 : 84,3139 g/mol = 0.44
mol Al₂(CO₃)₃ :
= 1/3 x mol MgCO₃
= 1/3 x 0.44
= 0.147
Density is the ratio of mass to the volume.
The mathematical expression is given as:
Now, density of isooctane = 
Volume = 
Since, 1 gallon = 3.78 L
So, 3.8 gal = 
= 
As, 1 L = 1000 mL
Therefore, = 
Volume in mL = 
Put the values,
= 
Hence, mass of 3.8 gal of the gasoline is .
Lower flammable limit means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.
What is hazardous atmosphere?
It is an atmosphere that may expose employees to risk of death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self-rescue, injury, or acute illness from one or more of following causes
- Flammable gas, vapor, or mist in excess of 10 percent of lower flammable limit (LFL)
- Airborne combustible dust at concentration that meets or exceeds its LFL
What is lower flammable limit?
- It means the lowest concentration of a material that will propagate a flame.
- The LFL is usually expressed as percent by volume of material in air (or other oxidant)
- Atmospheres with concentration of flammable vapors at or above 10 percent of lower explosive limit (LEL) are considered hazardous when located in confined spaces.
- However, atmospheres with flammable vapors below 10 percent of LEL are not necessarily safe. Such atmospheres are too lean to burn
