Report molar masses to 1 decimal place. Molar mass of benzoic acid g/mol Molar mass of methyl benzoate

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular mass is the sum of the relative atomic masses of all the atoms in the molecule.

The relative atomic mass of reactants and products are calculated as follows;

Benzoic acid is C7H6O2 hence the molar mass of benzoic acid is ;

7(12) + 6(1) + 2(16) = 84 + 6 + 32 = 122.0 g/mol

Methyl benzoate is C8H8O2

8(12) + 8(1) + 2(16) = 96 + 8 + 32 = 136.0 g/mol

The oxidizing agent is:______.
The reducing agent is:_______.

Answers

Answer:

a. 2NO₂ (g) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + H₂O (l)

b. i. NO₂⁻ is the oxidizing agent

ii. NO₃⁻ is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

a. Balance the following skeleton reaction

The reaction is

NO₂ (g) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq)

The half reactions are

NO₂ (g) → NO₃⁻ (aq)  (1) and

NO₂ (g) → NO₂⁻  (aq) (2)

We balance the number of oxygen atoms in equation(1) by adding one H₂O molecule to the left side.

So, NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq)

We now add two hydrogen ions 2H⁺ on the right hand side to balance the number of hydrogen atoms

NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq)

The charge on the left hand side is zero while the total charge on the right hand side is -1 + 2 = +1. To balance the charge on both sides, we add one electron to the right hand side.

So, NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + e⁻  (4)

Since the number of atoms in equation two are balanced, we balance the charge since the charge on the left hand side is zero and that on the right hand side is -1. So, we add one electron to the left hand side.

So, NO₂ (g) + e⁻ → NO₂⁻  (aq) (5)

We now add equation (4) and (5)

So, NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + e⁻  (4)

+  NO₂ (g) + e⁻ → NO₂⁻  (aq) (5)

2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + e⁻ → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + e⁻  (4)

2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)  → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq)  

We now add two hydroxide ions to both sides of the equation.

So, 2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻ (aq)

The hydrogen ion and the hydroxide ion become a water molecule

2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + 2H₂O (l)

2NO₂ (g) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + H₂O (l)

So, the required reaction is

2NO₂ (g) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻  (aq) + H₂O (l)

b. Identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent

Since the oxidation number of oxygen in NO₂ is -2. Since the oxidation number of NO₂ is zero, we let x be the oxidation number of N.

So, x + 2 × (oxidation number of oxygen) = 0

x + 2(-2) = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

Since the oxidation number of oxygen in NO₂⁻ is -1. Since the oxidation number of NO₂⁻ is -1, we let x be the oxidation number of N.

So, x + 2 × (oxidation number of oxygen) = 0

x + 2(-2) = -1

x - 4 = -1

x = 4 - 1

x = 3

Also, the oxidation number of oxygen in NO₃⁻ is -1. Since the oxidation number of NO₃⁻ is -1, we let x be the oxidation number of N.

So, x + 2 × (oxidation number of oxygen) = -1

x + 3(-2) = -1

x - 6 = -1

x = 6 - 1

x = 5

i. The oxidizing agent

The oxidation number of N changes from +4 in NO₂ to +3 in NO₂⁻. So, Nitrogen is reduced and thus  NO₂⁻ is the oxidizing agent

ii. The reducing agent

The oxidation number of N changes from +4 in NO₂ to +5 in NO₃⁻. So, Nitrogen is oxidized and thus and  NO₃⁻ is the reducing agent.

g
of methane?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answers

Answer:

6.4×10¯³ g of O₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> CO₂ + 2H₂O

Next, we shall determine the masses of CH₄ and O₂ that reacted from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of CH₄ = 12 + (4×1)

= 12 + 4

= 16 g/mol

Mass of CH₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 16 = 16 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH₄ reacted with 64 g of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of O₂ needed to react with 1.6×10¯³ g of CH₄. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH₄ reacted with 64 g of O₂.

Therefore, 1.6×10¯³ g of CH₄ will react with = (1.6×10¯³ × 64) / 16 = 6.4×10¯³ g of O₂

Thus, 6.4×10¯³ g of O₂ is needed for the reaction.

beaker with its contents on the balance. The recorded data is:
mass of the empty, clean beaker #1: 74.605 g
mass of the beaker #1 with the white solid: 74.896 g
Using the Law of Conservation of Mass, what is the mass of the unknown solid you placed in beaker #1?

Answers

Answer:

the mas is .291 g

Explanation:

the mass of a object does not change. so when added the substance the beaker. you had the mass of both objects together. you know the mass of the beaker and you know the mass of both. since mass does not change. the beakers mass is still 74.605g. the mass of both objects is 74.896. all you have to do is subtract the mass of the beaker from the total mass. 74.896 - 74.605 equals .291g. so the mass of the unknown substance Is .291g

Nitric acid and nitrogen monoxide react to form nitrogen dioxide and water, like this: At a certain temperature, a chemist finds that a 7.7 L reaction vessel containing a mixture of nitric acid, nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and water at equilibrium has the following composition: compound amount
HNO 16.2 g 11.0 g 18.6 g H20 236.7 g 3 NO NO
Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant K for this reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

K = 3.3

Explanation:

Nitric acid, HNO3, reacts with nitrogen monoxide, NO, to produce nitrogen dioxide, NO2 and water H2O as follows:

2HNO3(g) + NO(g) → 3NO2(g) + H2O(g)

Where equilibrium constant, K, is:

K = [NO2]³[H2O] / [HNO3]²[NO]

[] is the molar concentration of each species at equilibrium.

To solve this question we need to find molarity of each gas and replace these in the equation as follows:

[NO2] -Molar mass NO2-46.0g/mol-

18.6g * (1mol/46.0g) = 0.404mol / 7.7L = 0.0525M

[H2O] -Molar mass:18.01g/mol-

236.7g * (1mol/18.01g) = 13.14 moles / 7.7L = 1.707M

[HNO3] -Molar mass:53.01g/mol-

16.2g * (1mol/53.01g) = 0.3056 moles / 7.7L = 0.0397M

[NO] -Molar mass: 30.0g/mol-

11.0g * (1mol/30.0g) = 0.367 moles / 7.7L = 0.0476M

Replacing:

K = [NO2]³[H2O] / [HNO3]²[NO]

K = [0.0525M]³[1.707M] / [0.0397M]²[0.0476M]

K = 3.3

Two flasks are connected by a closed valve. One contains gas particles and the other contains a vacuum. If the valve is opened such that the particles move until they fill both flasks, the process by which the particles can reconvene entirely in one of the flasks is:

Answers

Answer: The process by which the particles can reconvene entirely in one of the flasks is: NONSPONTANEOUS.

Explanation:

The spontaneity of a process can affect the distribution of energy and matter within the system. Different chemical or physical processes have the natural tendency to occur in one direction under a given set of conditions. For example:

--> when water is pour down a hill it naturally flows down but it requires outside energy maybe from a water pump to flow up the hill and ,

--> during an iron rust, iron that is exposed to atmosphere will corrode, but rust is not converted to iron without intentional chemical treatment.

Therefore, a spontaneous process is one that occurs naturally under certain conditions. While a NONSPONTANEOUS process, on the other hand, will not take place unless it is initiated by the continual input of energy from an outside source. A process that is spontaneous in one direction under a particular set of conditions is nonspontaneous in the REVERSE direction.

From the two flasks that where connected through a valve, once the valve was opened, the gas spontaneously becomes evenly distributed between the flasks. To reverse this, it would require an external energy making the reconvening of the particles back to the first flask a NONSPONTANEOUS PROCESS .

A compound with a molecular weight of about 64.47 g/mol was found to be 18.63 % of C, 1.56 % of H, 24.82 % of O, and 54.99 % of Cl by mass. Determine the molecular formula and draw the Lewis structure showing an accurate 3-D perspective. *Show your calculations

Answers

Answer:

See detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hey there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to solve this problem by firstly calculating the moles of each element, assuming those percentages are masses, so that we divide by their molar masses:

[tex]C=\frac{18.63}{12.01}=1.55\\\\H=\frac{1.56}{1.01} =1.55\\\\O=\frac{24.82}{16.00}=1.55\\\\Cl=\frac{54.99}{35.45}=1.55[/tex]

Then, we divide all of them by 1.55 to realize the empirical formula is:

[tex]CHOCl[/tex]

Whose molar mass is 64.47 g/mol, and therefore, since the molar mass of these two is the same, we infer the molecular formula is also CHOCl.

The Lewis structure is shown on the attached document, whereas, the central atom is C and it does complete its octet as well as both O and Cl.

Answers

Best practices for fume hoods: work 25 cm inside, organize items to one side, use raised ledge; avoid open sash and quick movements.

Laboratory fume hoods must be used safely. Workers should operate at least 25 cm within the hood to preserve ventilation and avoid dangerous chemicals. Place things on one side of the hood to preserve ventilation and prevent clogging.

A raised ledge on the rear of the hood prevents things from falling in and impeding airflow. Avoid fully opening the sash to maintain ventilation and containment. Fast, rapid motions can interrupt airflow, so prevent them. These practises guarantee the fume hood contains harmful compounds, making the lab safer. Therefore, option (B), (D) and (E) are correct.

A) 2.80
B) 0.357
C) 14.5
D) 17.5
E) none of the above

Answers

Answer:

Option D. 17.5

Explanation:

Equiibrium is: CO + 2H₂  ⇄  CH₃OH

1 mol of CO is in equibrium with 2 moles of hydrogen in order to make, methanol.

Initially we have 0.42 moles of CO and 0.42 moles of H₂

If 0.29 moles of CO remained, (0.42 - 0.29) = 0.13 moles have reacted.

So in the equilibrium we may have:

0.29 moles of CO, and (0.42 - 0.13 . 2) = 0.16 moles of H₂

Ratio is 1:2, if 0.13 moles of CO haved reacted, (0.13 . 2) moles have reacted of hydrogen

Finally 0.13 moles of methanol, are found after the equilibrium reach the end.

Let's make expression for KC: [Methanol] / [CO] . [Hydrogen]²

0.13 / (0.29 . 0.16²)

Balance the redox reaction Al(s) + MnO4^- (aq) --> MnO2 (s) + Al(OH)4^- (aq) in aqueous basic solution

Answers

Answer:

Al + MnO4- + 2H2O → Al(OH)4- + MnO2

Explanation:

First of all, we out down the skeleton equation;

Al + MnO4- → MnO2 + Al(OH)4-

Secondly, we write the oxidation and reduction equation in basic medium;

Oxidation half equation:Al + 4H2O + 4OH- → Al(OH)4- + 4H2O + 3e-

Reduction half equation:MnO4- + 4H2O + 3e- → MnO2 + 2H2O + 4OH-

Thirdly, we add the two half reactions together to obtain:

Al + MnO4- + 8H2O + 4OH- + 3e- → Al(OH)4- + MnO2 + 6H2O + 3e- + 4OH-

Lastly, cancel out species that occur on both sides of the reaction equation;

Al + MnO4- + 8H2O→ Al(OH)4- + MnO2 + 6H2O

The simplified equation now becomes;

Al + MnO4- + 2H2O → Al(OH)4- + MnO2
