A compound containing only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is analyzed using combustion analysis. When 50.1 g of the compound is burned, 91.8 g of carbon dioxide and 25.1 g of water are collected. In order to determine the moles of carbon in the compound, first determine the moles of carbon dioxide that were produced from the combustion.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]C_{3}H_4O_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the carbon of the initial compound is present in the carbon dioxide product, we can compute the mass and moles of carbon in the compound:

[tex]n_C=91.8g CO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44gCO_2} *\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2} =2.09molC\\\\m_C=91.8g CO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44gCO_2} *\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}*\frac{12gC}{1molC} =25.0gC[/tex]

Next, the mass and moles of hydrogen in the compound, is contained in the yielded amount of water, thus, we compute the mass and moles of hydrogen in the compound:

[tex]n_H=25.1gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O} *\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O} =2.79molH\\\\m_H=25.1gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O} *\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O} *\frac{1gH}{1molH} =2.79gH[/tex]

In such a way, the mass of oxygen comes from the mass of the compound minus the mass of carbon and oxygen:

[tex]m_O=50.1g-25.0g-2.79g=22.31gO[/tex]

And the moles:

[tex]n_O=22.31gO*\frac{1molO}{16gO}=1.39molO[/tex]

Then, we compute the subscripts by diving the moles of C, H and O by the moles of oxygen as the smallest moles:

[tex]C:\frac{2.09}{1.39}=1.5 \\\\H:\frac{2.79}{1.39}=2\\ \\O:\frac{1.39}{1.39} =1[/tex]

After that, we write:

[tex]C_{1.5}H_2O[/tex]

Which must be shown in whole number only, thereby we multiply the subscripts by 2, so the empirical formula turns out:

[tex]C_{3}H_4O_2[/tex]

Best regards.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

H₂ + O₂       →     H₂O

Balance chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

Step 1:

H₂ + O₂       →     H₂O

Left hand side                     Right hand side

O = 2                                    O = 1

Step 2:

H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

Left hand side                     Right hand side

H = 2                                    H = 4

O = 2                                    O = 2

Step 3:

2H₂ + O₂       →     2H₂O

A sample of an unknown gas weighs 0.419 grams and produced 5.00L of gas at 1.00atm (unknown gas only) and 298.15K, what is the molar mass (g/mole) of this unknown gas

Answers

Answer:

molar mass of unknown gas = 1.987 g/mol

Explanation:

First, the number of moles of the unknown gas is found

Using the ideal gas equation: PV = nRT

P = 1.00 atm, V = 5.00 L, T = 298.15 K, R = 0.082 L.atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹

n = PV/RT

n = (1.00 atm * 5.00 L)/(298.15 K *0.082 L.atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹)

n = 0.2109 moles

Molar mass = mass/ number of moles

molar mass = 0.419 g/ 0.2109 mols

molar mass of unknown gas = 1.987 g/mol

The molar mass of unknown gas by using ideal gas equation = 1.987 g/mol.

Ideal gas equation

This equation gives the relation between pressure, volume, temperature as given below:

[tex]PV = nRT[/tex]

P = 1.00 atm, V = 5.00 L, T = 298.15 K, R = 0.082 L.atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹

Substitute the above values in the above equation as follows:

n = (1.00 atm * 5.00 L)/(298.15 K *0.082 L.atm.mol⁻¹K⁻¹)

n = 0.2109 moles

Formula for molar mass

[tex]Molar mass = mass/ number of moles[/tex]

Calculate molar mass by using the above equation,

molar mass = 0.419 g/ 0.2109 moles

The molar mass of unknown gas = 1.987 g/mol

A student was performing a separation of a mixture of organic compounds. The final step of the process involved a filtration of the analyte from an aqueous solution. After drying the filtered solid for a very short period time, they took the melting point of the compound. The measured melting point range of the compound was 106 – 113.8 0C, while the literature melting point of the compound was 122.3 0C. The above scenario is a very common one in organic labs.
1. Do you think their sample was pure?
2. If not, then what do you think could be the source of error.
3. How do you think this error can be minimized?

Answers

Answer:

1) No

2) The solvent contaminated the analyte

3) The solvent should be evaporated properly before washing and drying the analyte

Explanation:

During separation of organic compounds, solvents are used. These solvents are able to contaminate the analyte and lead to a large difference in melting point of solids obtained.

However, the error can be minimized by evaporating the solvent before washing, drying and melting point determination of the solid.

What is the final concentration if water is added to 0.25 L of a 8M NaOH solution to make 4.0 L of a diluted NaOH solution?
.25 M NaOH solution
1 M NaOH solution
.5 M NaOH solution

Answers

Answer:

0.5 M NaOH solution

Explanation:

Initially, we have 0.25L or 250 mL of 8M NaOH solution

Which means that 1L of this solution would have 8 moles of NaOH

Moles present in 250 mL of solution:

Molarity * Volume( in L)

8 * 0.25 = 2 moles

There is 2 moles of NaOH in 0.25 L of the provided NaOH solution

More water is going to be added to this solution but the number of moles of NaOH will remain the same

now that the solution has a volume of 4L after adding the additional water, we have a 4L solution which contains 2 moles of NaOH

Molarity of the new solution:

Molarity = Number of moles in solution / Volume of solution

Molarity = 2 / 4

Molarity = 0.5 M

In the combustion of hydrogen gas, hydrogen reacts with oxygen from the air to form water vapor. hydrogen+oxygen⟶water If you burn 58.9 g of hydrogen and produce 526 g of water, how much oxygen reacted?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m_{O_2}=467gO_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, for the reaction:

[tex]2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O[/tex]

The correct way to compute the oxygen that reacted is by considering the mass of hydrogen, 58.9 g, its molar mass, 2.02 g/mol, the 2:1 mole ratio between hydrogen and oxygen and the atomic mass of that gaseous oxygen 32.00 g/mol; therefore we use the following stoichiometric procedure:

[tex]m_{O_2}=58.9gH_2*\frac{1molH_2}{2.02gH_2}*\frac{1molO_2}{2molH_2} *\frac{32.00gO_2}{1molO_2} \\\\m_{O_2}=467gO_2[/tex]

The same result could have been obtained by using the mass of water since the law of conservation of mass is obeyed here.

In chemistry, one often uses a unit of charge known as the Faraday, F, which has the magnitude of the charge of 1 mole of electrons. How many faradays of charge does that correspond to

Answers

Answer:

1 Faraday

Explanation:

This question seeks to test proper understanding of Faraday's second law of electrolysis which states when the same quantity electricity passes through a solution of different electrolytes, the mass of the substance deposited is directly proportional to there chemical equivalence.

This law hints at the charges of ions being the chemical equivalence and also been represented as the unit for the quantity of electricity in faraday, F. Hence, a metal with the charge of 1+ can be displaced by 1F (which is equal to 96, 500 coloumbs). This charge also represents one molecule of electron, thus 1 faraday corresponds to one mole of electrons.

NOTE: It should be noted that a metal with the charge of 2+ can be displaced by 2F and so on.

If 5.00g of iron metal is reacted with 0.950g of Cl2 gas, how many grams of ferric chloride (FeCl3) will form?

Answers

Answer:

1.45g of FeCl3

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

2Fe + 3Cl2 --> 2FeCl3

2 mol of Fe reracts with 3 mol of Cl2 to form 2 mol of FeCl3

Upon converting to mass using;

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

( 2 * 55.85 = 111.7g ) of Fe reacts with ( 3 * 71 = 213g ) of Cl2 to form ( 2 * 162.2 = 324.4g) of FeCl3

Cl2 is the limiting reactant as it determines how much of FeCl3 is formed

213g of Cl2 = 324.4g of FeCl3

0.950g of Cl2 = x

x = (0.950 * 324.4 ) / 213

x = 1.45g of FeCl3

Answers

Answer:

0.013 mol/L

Explanation:

Molarity, which is molar concentration or moles per unit volume, can be calculated using the formula:

M = n/V

Where; M = Molar concentration of solution

n = number of moles of solute

V = Volume of solvent

n = 0.0025 moles of sugar

V = 200.00mL of solution

Since 0.001L = 1mL

200mL = 0.200L

Therefore, M = n/V

M = 0.0025/0.200

M = 0.0125 mol/L

Round up to the nearest thousandth ~ 0.013mol/L
