Identify the most and the least basic compound in each of the following sets. Leave the remaining answer in each set blank. a) Sodium acetate: _______ Ammonia: _______ Sodium ethoxide: _______ b) Sodium acetate: _______ Sodium chloroacetate: _______ Sodium fluoroacetate: _______ c) Sodium acetate: _______ Sodium methoxide: _______ Sodium phenoxide:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is -

a) Sodium acetate: least Ammonia: _______ Sodium ethoxide: most

b) Sodium acetate: most Sodium chloroacetate: _______ Sodium fluoroacetate: least

c)  Sodium acetate: least Sodium methoxide: most Sodium phenoxide:

Explanation:

A) In this case the basicity can be found by the stability of the base, Sodium acetate is the most stable base due to resonance stabilization of acetate anion. Sodium acetate is the least basic as the lone pair of electrons involved in the resonance here. An ethoxide ion has more electrons to donate an electron pair easily.

Thus, the correct answer is - Sodium acetate is the least basic while sodium ethoxide is the most basic.

B) Fluroacetate gives a very strong acid and the acetate gives the least strong acid among all three as described in case of a), thus, the most basic is acetate and the least is fluoroacetate.

]C) comparing the acidity of the acids formed by the addition of a proton to the anions is an easy and correct way to find the basicity of compounds.

Acetate ion adds a proton ⇒ acetic acid

methoxide adds a proton ⇒ methanol

phenoxide ion adds proton ⇒ phenol

As it is known that the stronger the acid, the weaker is the conjugate base formed by the loss of the proton.

acetic acid is the strongest acid because it can easily give up its proton to form acetate. Methanol is the weakest among all three and hence methoxide anion is the strongest base.

Thus, the correct answer is - sodium acetate is the least basic while sodium methoxide is the most basic.

In the oxidation of iron; how many grams of iron (III) oxide will be produced from 6.20 mol of Fe?
4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) --> 2Fe2O3(s)

Answers

Answer:

496 g of Fe₂O₃.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4Fe + 3O₂ —> 2Fe₂O₃

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Fe reacted to produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃.

Therefore, 6.20 moles of Fe will react to produce = (6.20 × 2)/4 = 3.1 moles of Fe₂O₃

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 3.1 moles of Fe₂O₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of Fe₂O₃ = 3.1 moles

Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = (56 × 2) + (3×16)

= 112 + 48

= 160 g/mol

Mass of Fe₂O₃ =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 3.1 × 160

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 496 g

Therefore, 496 g of Fe₂O₃ were produced from the reaction.

Oxalic Acid, a compound found in plants and vegetables such as rhubarb, has a mass percent composition of 26.7% C, 2.24% H, and 71.1% O. Oxalic acid can interfere with respiration and cause kidney or bladder stones. If a large quantity of rhubarb leaves is ingested, the oxalic acid can be toxic. The lethal dose (LD50) in rats for oxalic acid is 375 mg/kg. Rhubarb leaves contain about 0.5% by mass of oxalic acid. (Show your work, using the insert equation tool :) What is the empirical formula of oxalic acid

Answers

Answer:

HCO₂

Explanation:

From the information given:

The mass of the elements are:

Carbon C = 26.7 g;     Hydrogen H = 2.24 g     Oxygen O = 71.1 g

To determine the empirical formula;

First thing is to find the numbers of moles of each atom.

For Carbon:

[tex]=26.7 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{12.01 \ g} \\ \\ =2.22 \ mol \ of \ Carbon[/tex]

For Hydrogen:

[tex]=2.24 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{1.008 \ g} \\ \\ =2.22 \ mol \ of \ Hydrogen[/tex]

For Oxygen:

[tex]=71.1 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{1.008 \ g} \\ \\ =4.44 \ mol \ of \ oxygen[/tex]

Now; we use the smallest no of moles to divide the respective moles from above.

For carbon:

[tex]\dfrac{2.22 \ mol \ of \ carbon}{2.22} =1 \ mol \ of \ carbon[/tex]

For Hydrogen:

[tex]\dfrac{2.22 \ mol \ of \ carbon}{2.22} =1 \ mol \ of \ hydrogen[/tex]

For Oxygen:

[tex]\dfrac{4.44 \ mol \ of \ Oxygen}{2.22} =2 \ mol \ of \ oxygen[/tex]

Thus, the empirical formula is HCO₂

how many moles of ammonia can be formed from 4.0 mol H2

how many moles of hydrogen are required to form 8.0 mol NH3

how many moles of nitrogen are required to react with 6.0 mol H2

Answers

Answer: 1. 2.7 moles  of ammonia are formed

2. 12.0 moles  of hydrogen are required

3. 2.0 moles of nitrogen are required

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

[tex]N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3[/tex]

According to stoichiometry:

3 moles of hydrogen form = 2 moles of ammonia

Thus 4.0 moles of hydrogen form =[tex]\frac{2}{3}\times 4.0=2.7moles[/tex] of ammonia

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of ammonia are formed by = 3 moles of hydrogen

Thus 8.0 moles of ammonia are formed by  =[tex]\frac{3}{2}\times 8.0=12.0moles[/tex] of hydrogen

According to stoichiometry:

3 moles of hydrogen react with = 1 mole of nitrogen

Thus 6.0 moles of hydrogen react with =[tex]\frac{1}{3}\times 6.0=2.0moles[/tex] of nitrogen

To determine the empirical formula of a compound, we need to follow a series of steps.

Step 1: Divide each percent composition by the atomic mass of the element

P: 22.6/30.97 = 0.729

Cl: 77.4/35.45 = 2.18

Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one, i.e. 0.729

P: 0.729/0.729 = 1

Cl: 2.18/0.729 ≈ 3

The empirical formula of the compound is PCl₃.

Express the answer to the nearest whole number, or round to the nearest ones place. The molar mass of H2O is 18.02 g/mol.

Answers

Answer:

3 × 10⁴ kJ

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced thermochemical equation

C₃H₈(g) + 5 O₂(g) ⟶ 3 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(g) ΔH = -2220 kJ

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 865.9 g of H₂O

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.

865.9 g × 1 mol/18.02 g = 48.05 mol

Step 3: Calculate the heat produced when 48.05 moles of H₂O are produced

According to the thermochemical equation, 2220 kJ of heat are evolved when 4 moles of H₂O are produced.

48.05 mol × 2220 kJ/4 mol = 2.667 × 10⁴ kJ ≈ 3 × 10⁴ kJ
