Summary Introduction

Introduction: The process, in which one or more molecules react with each other to form new molecules, is known as a reaction. The rate of the reactions can be increased by the enzymes that act as biocatalyst and participate in reactions to lower down its activation energy.

if we wanted to measure the energy released by an exothermic reaction (like combustion, acid/base neutralization, and oxidation) we would do it in a sealed container and monitor the increase in [1 word]
SITUATION:You are a chemist in a manufacturing company which produces acetaldehyde, CH3CHO. This is prepared by the reaction of ethanol with copper (II) oxide according to the following equation: CH3CH2OH + CuO → CH3CHO + H2O + CuIf there are 1620 g of ethanol and 1020 g of CuO readily available in the laboratory, what mass of acetaldehyde can be produced? QUESTIONS: 1. Would you recommend the company to buy more ethanol or copper (II) oxide? Why?2. How many grams of acetaldehyde will be produced from the readily available materials?3. How many grams of the excess reactant will be left after the reaction?4. If your actual yield is 552.6 g, what is its percent yield?
The 2-carbon alcohol called ethanol is most common because it's made from something else very common: sugar! (this is also why ethanol is the one alcohol that's not toxic, our bodies can metabolize it). Ethanol is mass-produced in factories on an industrial scale, and is commonly used as a fuel (or mixed as an additive into other fuels). The combustion reaction below shows that 6 molecules of oxygen is required to completely burn two molecules of ethanol. How many molecules of carbon dioxide are produced after burning ethanol? ethanol + oxygen carbon dioxide + water 20,H OH + 60, + 6H,0 4CO. 2(e)
