An unknown compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (CxHyOz). Combustion of 5.50 g of this compound produced 8.07 g of carbon dioxide and 3.30 g of water.

Required:
a. How many moles of carbon, C, were in the original sample?
b. How many moles of hydrogen, H, were in the original sample?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 0.183 mol C

b. 0.366 mol H

Explanation:

Assuming total combustion, all of the carbon in the unknown compound turned into carbon dioxide, CO₂.

So first we calculate the CO₂ moles produced, using its molecular weight:

8.07 g CO₂ ÷ 44 g/mol = 0.183 mol CO₂

This means in the unknown compound there were 0.183 moles of carbon, C.

Conversely, all of the hydrogen in the unknown compound turned into water, H₂O.

Calculating the H₂O moles:

3.30 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.183 mol H₂O

We multiply the water moles by two, as there are 2 H moles per H₂O mol:

0.183 * 2 = 0.366 mol H.

Required:
a. Write a balanced net ionic equation for the neutralization reaction. Include physical states.
b. Calculate the molarity of the carbonic acid solution.

Answers

Answer:

a. H₂CO₃(aq) + KOH(aq) ⇄ K₂CO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

b. 0.603 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the neutralization reaction

H₂CO₃(aq) + KOH(aq) ⇄ K₂CO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of KOH

22.9 mL of 1.430 M KOH react.

0.0229 L × (1.430 mol/L) = 0.0327 mol

Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of H₂CO₃

The molar ratio of H₂CO₃ to KOH is 1:1. The reacting moles of H₂CO₃ are 1/1 × 0.0327 mol = 0.0327 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the molarity of H₂CO₃

0.0327 moles of H₂CO₃ are in a volume of 54.2 mL. The molarity of H₂CO₃ is:

M = 0.0327 mol/0.0542 L = 0.603 M

If you collect 5.74 mL of O 2 at 298 K and 1.00 atm over 60.0 seconds from a reaction solution of 5.08 mL, what is the initial rate of the reaction

Answers

Answer:

7.71 × 10⁻⁴ M/s

Explanation:

The initial rate of the reaction can be expressed by using the formula:

[tex]\dfrac{\Delta [O_2]}{\Delta t}[/tex]

where the number of moles of O₂ = [tex]\dfrac{PV}{RT}[/tex]

where;

Pressue P = 1.00 atm

Volume V =5.74mL =  (5.74 /1000) L

Rate R = 0.082 L atm/mol.K

Temperature = 298 K

[tex]= \dfrac{1.00 \ atm \times \dfrac{5.74 }{1000}L}{0.082 \ L \ atm/mol.K \times 298 K}[/tex]

= 2.35 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Δ[O₂] = [tex]\dfrac{moles \ produced - initial \ mole}{\dfrac{5.08 }{1000}L }[/tex]

Δ[O₂] = [tex]\dfrac{2.35 \times 10^{-4} M - 0 M}{\dfrac{5.08 }{1000}}[/tex]

Δ[O₂]  = 0.04626 M

The initial rate = [tex]\dfrac{\Delta [O_2]}{\Delta t}[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{0.04626}{60}[/tex]

= 7.71 × 10⁻⁴ M/s

In the laboratory you dissolve 18.7 g of copper(II) bromide in a volumetric flask and add water to a total volume of 375mL.

Required:
a. What is the molarity of the solution?
b. What is the concentration of the copper(II) cation?
c. What is the concentration of the acetate anion?

Answers

Answer:

a) - 0.2 M

b) - 0.2 M

c)- 0

Explanation:

The chemical formula of copper (II) bromide is CuBr₂. Its molar mass (MM) is calculated as follows:

MM(CuBr₂)= MM(Cu) + (2 x MM(Br) = 63.5 g/mol + (2 x 80 g/mol)= 223.5 g/mol

a). Molarity = moles CuBr₂/1 L solution

moles CuBr₂ = mass/MM = 18.7 g x 1 mol/223.5 g = 0.084 mol

Volume in L = 375 mL x 1 L/1000 mL = 0.375 L

M = 0.084 mol/(0.375 L) = 0.223 M ≅ 0.2 M

b). When is added to water, CuBr₂ dissociates into ions as follows:

CuBr₂ ⇒ Cu²⁺ + 2 Br⁻

We have 1 mol Cu²⁺ (copper (II) cation) per mol of CuBr₂. Thus, the concentration of copper (II) cation is:

0.2 mol CuBr₂ x 1 mol Cu²⁺/mol CuBr₂ = 0.2 M

c). The concentration of acetate anion is 0. There is no acetate anion in the solution (the anion from CuBr₂ is bromide Br⁻).

A balloon contains 1.1 L of gas at a pressure of 0.80 atm. How will the volume
change if the pressure is increased to 2.0 atm?

Answers

Answer:

Final volume  = 0.44 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of balloon = 1.1 L

Initial pressure = 0.80 atm

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 2.0 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

0.80 atm × 1.1 L = 2.0 atm × V₂

V₂ = 0.88 atm. L/ 2.0 atm

V₂ = 0.44 L

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 0.050 mol of NaCN with enough water to make a liter of solution

Answers

Answer:

pH = 11

Explanation:

The equilibrium of a weak base as NaCN in water is:

NaCN(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ OH⁻(aq) + Na⁺(aq) + HCN(aq)

And kb, the equilibrium constant, is:

Kb = [OH⁻] [HCN] / [NaCN]

Where Kb of NaCN is 2.04x10⁻⁵

In the beginning, the [NaCN] is 0.050mol / L = 0.050M.

Both [OH⁻] and [HCN] are produced from this equilibrium, and its concentration is X, that is:

2.04x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.050M]

1.02x10⁻⁶ = X²

X = 1x10⁻³ = [OH⁻]

As pOH = - log [OH⁻]

pOH = 3.00

And pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 11

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

NaNO₃  = Na⁺  + NO₃⁻¹

.497 M                 .497 M

moles of NO₃⁻¹ = .897 x .497 = .4458 moles

Ca( NO₃)₂  = Ca + 2 NO₃⁻¹

.341 M                    2 x .341 M = .682 M

moles of NO₃⁻¹ = .813 x .682 = .5544 moles

Total moles =  .4458 moles  +  .5544 moles

= 1.0002 moles

volume of solution = 897 + 813 = 1710 mL

= 1.710 L

concentration of nitrate ion = 1.0002 / 1.710 M

= .585 M

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The heat released for 1 gram of reactant consumed is  [tex]H  =  37.5 \ KJ/g [/tex]

   The mass of reactant considered is  [tex]m =  1.9 \ kg  =  1900 \  g[/tex]

Josh heated a certain amount of blue copper sulfate crystals to get 2.1 g of white copper sulfate powder and 1.4 g of water. What is most likely the mass of the blue copper sulfate that he heated and why?

Answers

Answer: The mass of blue copper sulfate is 3.5 g

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The chemical equation for the heating of copper sulfate crystals is:

Let the mass of blue copper sulfate be 'x' grams

We are given:

Mass of copper sulfate powder = 2.1 grams

Mass of water = 1.4 grams

Total mass on reactant side = x

Total mass on product side = (2.1 + 1.4) g

So, by applying law of conservation of mass, we get:

Hence, the mass of blue copper sulfate is 3.5 grams

Answers

Answer:

2.35 x 10²⁰ atoms Ga

Explanation:

After converting from mg to g, use the molar mass as the unit converter to convert to moles. Then using Avogadro's number, 6.022 x 10²³ convert from moles to atoms of Ga.

[tex]27.2mgGa*\frac{1g}{1000mg} *\frac{1 mol Ga}{69.72gGa} *\frac{6.022*10^2^3 atoms Ga}{1 molGa} = 2.349 * 10^2^0 atoms Ga[/tex]

Then round to 3 significant figures = 2.35 x 10²⁰ atoms Ga.

The number of atoms in 27.2 mg sample of Ga is 2.35 × 10²⁰ atoms

Stoichiometry

From the question, we are to calculate the number of atoms in a 27.2 mg sample of Ga.

First, we will determine the number of moles of Ga present

Using the formula,

[tex]Number\ of\ moles = \frac{Mass}{Molar\ mass} [/tex]

Mass = 27.2 mg = 0.0272 g

Molar mass = 69.72 g/mol

Then,

[tex]Number\ of\ moles \ of\ Ga = \frac{0.0272}{69.72} [/tex]

[tex]Number\ of\ moles \ of\ Ga = [/tex] 0.000390132 moles

Now, for the number of atoms present

From the formula

Number of atoms = Number of moles × Avogadro's constant

Then,

Number of Ga atoms = 0.000390132 × 6.022×10²³

Number of Ga atoms = 2.35 × 10²⁰ atoms

Hence, the number of atoms in 27.2 mg sample of Ga is 2.35 × 10²⁰ atoms

Answers

Answer:

i

[tex]J_{m} = 20 [/tex]

ii

[tex]J_{m} = 22.5 [/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The first temperatures is [tex]T_1 =  25^oC =  25 +273 =298 \ K[/tex]

   The second temperature is  [tex]T_2 =  100^oC =  100 +273 = 373 \ K[/tex]

Generally the equation for  the most highly populated rotational energy level is mathematically represented as

     [tex]J_{m} = [ \frac{RT}{2B}]  ^{\frac{1}{2} } - \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Here R is the gas constant with value [tex]R =8.314 \ J\cdot K^{-1} \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex]

Also  

      B is given as [tex]B=\ 0.244 \ cm^{-1}[/tex]

   Generally the energy require per mole to move 1 cm is  12 J /mole

So   [tex]0.244 \ cm^{-1}[/tex]  will require x J/mole

           [tex]x =  0.244 *  12[/tex]

=>          [tex]x =  2.928 \ J/mol [/tex]

So at the first temperature

     [tex]J_{m} = [ \frac{8.314 * 298  }{2*  2.928 }]  ^{\frac{1}{2} } - 0.5 [/tex]

=>  [tex]J_{m} = 20 [/tex]

So at the second temperature

           [tex]J_{m} = [ \frac{8.314 * 373  }{2*  2.928 }]  ^{\frac{1}{2} } - 0.5 [/tex]

=>  [tex]J_{m} = 22.5 [/tex]
