A 1.00 gram sample of which of the following compounds contains the greatest mass of oxygen? And explain.

1. K2O2
2. Na2O
3. BeO

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

BeO will have the greatest mass composition of oxygen

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we would find the mass composition of oxygen in each of the given sample.

To find this mass composition, let us derive the molecular mass of the given species;

  K₂O₂ = 2(39) + 2(16) = 110g/mol

  Na₂O = 2(23) + 16 = 62g/mol

   BeO = 9 + 16  = 25g/mol

Now; we know that mass of each sample is 1g;

mass composition of O in K₂O₂ = [tex]\frac{32}{110}[/tex] x  1= 0.29g

mass composition of O in Na₂O = [tex]\frac{16}{62}[/tex] x 1 = 0.26g

mass composition of O in BeO = [tex]\frac{16}{25}[/tex] x 1 = 0.64g

We can see that BeO will have the greatest mass composition of oxygen.

Answer 2

The mass composition of oxygen has been highest in BeO. Thus, option 3 is correct.

The molecular mass has been the mass of each element that has been present in the compound. The molecular mass of given compounds have been:

[tex]\rm K_2O_2[/tex] = 2(mass of K) + 2(mass of O)

= 2 (39) + 2 (16)

= 110 g/mol

[tex]\rm Na_2O[/tex]= 2(mass of N) + mass of O

= 2 (23) + 16

= 62 g/mol

BeO = mass of Be + mass of O  

= 9 + 16

= 23 g/mol

The mass composition of oxygen in 1 gram of the following compounds have been:

Mass composition = [tex]\rm \dfrac{Mass\;of\;Oxygen}{Molecular\;mass\;of\;compound}\;\times\;weight\;of\;sample[/tex]

[tex]\rm K_2O_2[/tex] = [tex]\rm \dfrac{32}{110}\;\times\;1\;gram[/tex]

[tex]\rm K_2O_2[/tex] = 0.29 grams

[tex]\rm Na_2O[/tex] = [tex]\rm \dfrac{16}{62}\;\times\;1\;gram[/tex]

[tex]\rm Na_2O[/tex] = 0.26 grams

BeO = [tex]\rm \dfrac{16}{23}\;\times\;1\;gram[/tex]

BeO = 0.64 grams.

The mass composition of oxygen has been highest in BeO. Thus, option 3 is correct.

Why do gases diffuse more quickly than liquids?

Choose the correct answer.

A) Liquids can be compressed easily.

B)The particles in gases are not mobile.

C)Liquids are always at lower temperatures than gases.

D)Gas particles move rapidly and have space between them.

Answers

Answer:

D)Gas particles move rapidly and have space between them.

Explanation:

Matter exists in three states namely: solids, liquids and gases. The particles contained in these three states are different from one another. In the gaseous state, the particles are FAR APART from one another i.e. space exists and they move at a very fast rate in contrast to the particles of a liquid, which have less space and move slower.

This rapid movement of gas particles within a less restricted space accounts for the reason why gaseous substances DIFFUSE more quickly than liquids.

1. With the aid of a Hess cycle, determine the enthalpy of the decomposition reaction of sodium nitrate, NaNO3 to sodium nitrite, NaNO2 and oxygen, O2. [5]

Enthalpy of formation of NaNO3 = -468 kJ/mol
Enthalpy of formation of NaNO2 = -369kJ/mol

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

2NaNO₃ = 2NaNO₂ + O₂

NaNO₃    =     NaNO₂   +    1/2 O₂

- 468 kJ           -369 kJ           0  kJ

enthalpy of decomposition reaction

= - 369 - ( - 468 ) kJ

The density of ethanol, C 2H 5OH, is 0.789 g/mL. How many milliliters of ethanol are needed to produce 25.0 g of CO 2 according to the following chemical equation?

C 2H 5OH( l) + 3 O 2( g) → 2 CO 2( g) + 3 H 2O( l)

Answers

Answer:

11.1mL

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

          C₂H₅OH   + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ +  3H₂O

Given parameters:

density of ethanol  = 0.789g/mL

mass of CO₂ = 25g

Unknown:

Volume of ethanol = ?

Solution:

First find the number of moles of the CO₂ from the given mass;

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

 Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + 2(16) = 44g/mol

Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{25}{44}[/tex]    = 0.57mol

Then;

 Find the number of moles of ethanol used;

     3 moles of CO₂ is produced from 1 mole of ethanol;

    0.57mole of CO₂ will be produced from [tex]\frac{0.57}{3}[/tex]  = 0.19mole of ethanol

Now;

Find the mass of the ethanol from the given mole;

     Mass of ethanol  = number of moles x molar mass

     Molar mass of ethanol  = 2(12) + 5(1) + 16 + 1 = 46g/mol

      Mass of ethanol  = 0.19 x 46 = 8.74g

Then;

  Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance;

       Density  = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

        Volume  = [tex]\frac{mass}{density}[/tex]  

          Volume  = [tex]\frac{8.74}{0.789}[/tex]   = 11.1mL

In one paragraph, using your own words, describe the structure of DNA using the following terms: phosphate, sugar, pyrimidines, purines, and bonding.

Answers

The phosphate group of one nucleotide bonds covalently with the sugar molecule of the next nucleotide, and so on, forming a long polymer of nucleotide monomers. The sugar–phosphate groups line up in a “backbone” for each single strand of DNA, and the nucleotide bases stick out from this backbone. The carbon atoms of the five-carbon sugar are numbered clockwise from the oxygen as 1′, 2′, 3′, 4′, and 5′ (1′ is read as “one prime”). The phosphate group is attached to the 5′ carbon of one nucleotide and the 3′ carbon of the next nucleotide. In its natural state, each DNA molecule is actually composed of two single strands held together along their length with hydrogen bonds between the bases.

Answer:

Explanation:

The discovery that DNA is the prime genetic molecule, carrying all the hereditary information within chromosomes, immediately focused attention on its structure. It was hoped that knowledge

of the structure would reveal how DNA carries the genetic messages that are replicated when chromosomes divide to produce two identical copies of themselves. During the late 1940s and early 1950s, several research groups in the United States and in Europe engaged in serious efforts—both cooperative and rival—to understand how the atoms of DNA are linked together by covalent bonds and how the resulting molecules are arranged in three-dimensional space. Not surprisingly, there initially were fears that DNA might have very complicated and perhaps bizarre structures that differed radically from one gene to another. Great relief, if not general elation, was thus expressed when the fundamental DNA structure was found to be the double helix. It told us that all genes have roughly the same three-dimensional form and that the differences between two genes reside in the order and number of their four nucleotide building blocks along the complementary strands.

Now, some 50 years after the discovery of the double helix, this simple description of the genetic material remains true and has not had to be ap- preciably altered to accommodate new findings. Nevertheless, we have come to realize that the structure of DNA is not quite as uniform as was first thought. For example, the chromosome of some small viruses have single-stranded, not double-stranded, molecules. Moreover, the precise orientation of the base pairs varies slightly from base pair to base pair in a manner that is influenced by the local DNA sequence. Some DNA se- quences even permit the double helix to twist in the left-handed sense, as opposed to the right-handed sense originally formulated for DNA’s general structure. And while some DNA molecules are linear, others are circular. Still additional complexity comes from the supercoiling (further twisting) of the double helix, often around cores of DNA-binding proteins.

Likewise, we now realize that RNA, which at first glance appears to be very similar to DNA, has its own distinctive structural features. It is principally found as a single-stranded molecule. Yet by means of intra-strand base pairing, RNA exhibits extensive double-helical character and is capable of folding into a wealth of diverse tertiary structures. These structures are full of surprises, such as non-classical base pairs, base-backbone interactions, and knot-like configurations. Most remarkable of all, and of profound evolutionary significance, some RNA molecules are enzymes that carry out reactions that are at the core of information transfer from nucleic acid to protein.

Clearly, the structures of DNA and RNA are richer and more intricate than was at first appreciated. Indeed, there is no one generic structure for DNA and RNA. As we shall see in this chapter, there are in fact vari- ations on common themes of structure that arise from the unique physi- cal, chemical, and topological properties of the polynucleotide chain
