Answer to Problem 67E
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between propene and oxygen gas is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
Hydrocarbons in the presence of oxygen burns to give carbon dioxide and water. Therefore, propene reacts with oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

Answer to Problem 67E
The balanced chemical equation for the heating of hydrated salt of sodium dichromate is shown below.
Explanation of Solution
A hydrated salt on heating gives an anhydrous compound as on heating the water molecules evaporate. Therefore, on heating of sodium dichromate dihydrate, anhydrous sodium dichromate is obtained and water evaporates.
The completed chemical equation of the reaction for the heating of hydrated salt of sodium dichromate is shown below.
The numbers of atoms of elements on the left side of the reaction are not equal to the right side of the reaction. Therefore, the reaction is unbalanced.

- The carbon dioxide exhaled in the breath of astronauts is often removed from the spacecraft by reaction with lithium hydroxide 2LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(l) Estimate the grams of lithium hydroxide required per astronaut per day. Assume that each astronaut requires 2.50 103 kcal of energy per day. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 2.50 103 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of CO2 produced and hence the amount of LiOH required. The H for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.arrow_forward(A) if both sentences are true,(B) if both sentences are false,(C) if the first sentence is true but the second is false, and(D) if the first sentence is false but the second is true. 1. In a redox reaction, the oxidation number of iron changed from +2 to +3; thus, sulfur is a reducing agent. In a redox reaction, the oxidation number of nitrogen was unchanged; thus, nitrogen is an oxidant. 2. In a redox reaction, the reducing agent is oxidized and it gains electrons. In a redox reaction, the oxidizing agent is reduced and it gains electrons. 3. Bending stress is also known as flexural stress. The test used in observing the mechanical strength of chocolate is the three-point bend test. 4. The flexural strength of materials may be expressed in Pascals.
