Wine goes bad soon after opening because the ethanol in it reacts with oxygen gas from the air to form water and acetic acid , the main ingredient of vinegar. What mass of ethanol is consumed by the reaction of 3.37g oxygen gas?

The mass of ethanol is consumed by the reaction of 3.37g oxygen gas is 4.85g

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the chemical reactions is;

CH₃CH₂OH + O₂ → CH₃COOH + H₂O

The mole ratio between oxygen and ethanol in the reaction is 1 : 1

The molar mass of O₂ is 32g / mole. Therefore the O₂ moles consumes in the reaction is;

3.37 / 32

If the molar mass of ethanol is 46.07g/mole, and the ration of reaction in 1 : 1; Then the moles of ethanol consumed is;

3.37/32 * 46.07

= 4.85g

the ratio of the conjugate base to the acid required to attain the desired ph.

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
