Suppose, in an experiment to determine the amount of sodium hypochlorite in bleach, you titrated a 23.92 mL sample of 0.0100 M K I O 3 with a solution of N a 2 S 2 O 3 of unknown concentration. The endpoint was observed to occur at 13.80 mL . How many moles of K I O 3 were titrated
Answer:
2.39x10⁻⁴ moles
Explanation:
As the problem asks us the number of moles of KIO₃ that were titrated, all that is required of us is to calculate how many moles of KIO₃ are there in 23.92 mL of a 0.0100 M solution (All moles in the samples are titrated).
We can do so by using the definition of molarity:
Molarity = moles / litersconverting 23.92 mL ⇒ 23.92 / 1000 = 0.02392 L
moles = 0.0100 M * 0.02392 Lmoles = 2.39x10⁻⁴ molesCalculate the moles of H3PO4 that reacted (8). Consult the coefficients in the balance chemical reaction to obtain the mole ratio. Show your calculation here.
Answer:
The number of moles of H₃PO₄ that reacted is 0.000343 moles
Note: Some data is missing. Data from the attachment is used for the calculationsinnthe explanation below.
Explanation:
The reaction is a neutralization reaction between NaOH and H₃PO₄. The equation of the reaction is given as follows:
3 NaOH + H₃PO₄ ---> Na₃PO₄ + 3 H₂O
The molarity of the NaOH solution is 0.238 mol/L.
Average volume of NaOH used during the titration to arrive to endpoint = (4.6 + 3.9 + 4.5) mL / 3 = 4.33 mL
Molarity is defined ratio of the number of moles of solute to the volume of solution. Mathematically, molarity = number of moles/volume in Litres
Number of moles of NaOH reacted = 0.238 mol/L × (4.33mL × 1 L/1000 mL)
Number of moles of NaOH = 0.00103 moles
From the equation of the reaction, 3 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of H₃PO₄
0.00103 moles of NaOH will react with 0.00103 x 1/3 moles of H₃PO₄ = 0.000343 moles of H₃PO₄.
Therefore, number of moles of H₃PO₄ that reacted is 0.000343 moles

g Elimination reaction simulation, Kim had tried to prepare cyclohexene from cyclohexanol using HCl as a catalyst, but he got a weird side product cyclohexyl chloride. Cyclohexyl chloride is formed possibly from the side reaction called A. SN1 substitution reaction B. E2 reaction C. E1 reaction D. SN2 substitution reaction
Answer:
SN1 substitution reaction
Explanation:
cyclohexanol is a secondary alkanol. The mechanism of acid catalysed dehydration of cyclohexanol involves the protonation of the -OH group.
This is followed by loss of water which is a good leaving group. At this stage, a proton could be abstracted to yield cyclohexene by E1 mechanism or an SN1 substitution reaction may occur to yield Cyclohexyl chloride.
The both reactions are equally likely.
How many moles of hydrogen are in the sample?
Round your answer to 4 significant digits.
Answer:
1.56 mol H₂
Explanation:
Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂
There are 4 Si moles per Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ mol. With that in mind we can calculate how many Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ moles are there in the sample, using the given number of silicon moles:
3.120 mol Si * [tex]\frac{1molMg_3(Si_2O_5)_2(OH)_2}{4molSi}[/tex] = 0.78 mol Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂Then we can convert Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ moles into hydrogen moles, keeping in mind that there are 2 hydrogen moles per Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ mol:
0.78 mol Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ * 2 = 1.56 mol H₂How do forces between particles in gases compare to forces in the other states of matter?
The forces in gases are weaker than forces in solids and liquids.
Because they have more kinetic energy that overcomes the force of attraction.
1. Calculate the percent recovery of benzoic acid, naphthalene and 3-nitroaniline if you were able to collect 10.75 g of benzoic acid, 5.41 g of naphthalene, and 7.81 g of 3-nitroaniline from a set of extractions. The starting mass of the mixture was 25.04 g. (0.6 pt) 2. Describe why it is important to use sodium hydroxide and hydrochloride acid in this experiment. Why was it necessary to initially start off with a 5% solution of the acid or base for this experiment
Explanation:
1.)
mass = 25.04
percentage recovery
[tex]benzoic acid = \frac{10.75}{25.04} = 0.4293*100 = 42.93%\\[/tex]
[tex]naphtalene =\frac{5.41}{25.04} = 0.2160*100 = 21.60\\3-nitroaniline=\frac{7.81}{25.04} =0.3119*100=31.19[/tex]
2. This experiment has these compounds, benzoic acid (which is an acid), naphthalene (this is neutral) and 3-nitroaniline (this is a base).
to extract, 5 percent of NaOH has to be used in order for benzoic acid to become with sodium hydroxide. the salt would then dissolve in H2O, the other two remaining are going to dissolve in organic layer. and this would make benzoic acid to leave the mix.
we make use of 5 percent of HCl so that the 3-nitroaniline will turn into ammonium salt with the hcl, then the ammonium salt would dissolve in water and naphtalene would become soluble in organic layer. when this happens we would then have the three compounds separated.
In the reactionpyruvate lactatethat is catalyzed by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase, the compound on which the enzyme works, pyruvate, is called the _______.
Answer:
Substrate
Explanation:
In biochemical sciences, a substrate is a substance that is acted upon by an enzyme to yield a product. Enzymes are known for catalyzing biochemical reactions. The substances that are usually worked with during this catalytic process are termed as SUBSTRATES.
Substrates, which are usually changed during the process, binds to the active site on the enzyme and form an enzyme-substrate complex.
According to this question, pyruvate is converted to lactate in a reaction that is catalyzed by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase. This means that the compound on which the enzyme works, pyruvate, is called the SUBSTRATE.
4. Draw conclusions: How is the periodic table organized?
Answer:
.
Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in the order of their increasing atomic numbers. Thus,
Elements in the same group will have the same valence electron configuration and hence, similar chemical properties.
Whereas, elements in the same period will have an increasing order of valence electrons. Therefore, as the energy level of the atom increases, the number of energy sub-levels per energy level increases.
The first 94 elements of the periodic table are naturally occurring, while the rest from 95 to 118 have only been synthesized in laboratories or nuclear reactors.
The modern periodic table, the one we use now, is a new and improved version of certain models put forth by scientists in the 19th and 20th century. Dimitri Mendeleev put forward his periodic table based on the findings of some scientists before him like John Newlands and Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier. However, Mendeleev is given sole credit for his development of the periodic table.

Part A of the lab involved adding 4 mL increments of distilled water to 5.00 mL of antimony trichloride solution. The antimony trichloride solution contains 0.10 M SbCl3 in 4.5 M HCl. Calculate the concentrations of SbCl3 and H /Cl- in the test tube after 12.0 mL of distilled water has been added. Assume dilution only.
Answer:
0.0238M SbCl3, 1.07M H+, 1.14M Cl-
Explanation:
The total volume of the solution is:
4mL + 5.00mL + 12.0mL = 21mL
As the volume of the SbCl3 is 5.00mL, the dilution factor is:
21mL / 5.00mL = 4.2 times
The concentration of SbCl3 is:
0.10M SbCl3 / 4.2 times = 0.0238M SbCl3
The concentration of H+ = [HCl]:
4.5M / 4.2 times = 1.07M H+
The initial concentration of Cl- is:
3 times SbCl3 + HCl = 0.10M*3 + 4.5M =
3 times SbCl3 because 1 mole of SbCl3 contains 3 moles of Cl-
4.8M Cl- / 4.2 times = 1.14M Cl-

Classify each of the following as a strong acid or a weak acid and indicate how each should be written in aqueous solution. Classify ... In solution this acid should be written as: weak 1. hydrocyanic acid H3O CN- _______ 2. hydrobromic acid
Answer:
HCN, weak acid
H⁺, Br⁻, strong acid
Explanation:
Hydrocyanic acid is a weak acid, according to the following equation.
HCN(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + CN⁻(aq)
Thus, it should be written in the undissociated form (HCN).
Hydrobromic acid is a strong acid, according to the following equation.
HBr(aq) ⇒ H⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)
Thus, it should be written in the ionic form (H⁺, Br⁻).

3. A 3.455-g sample of a mixture was analyzed for barium ion by adding a small excess of sulfuric acid to an aqueous solution of the sample. The resultant reaction produced a precipitate of barium sulfate, which was collected by filtration, washed, dried, and weighed. If 0.2815 g of barium sulfate was obtained, what was the mass percentage of barium in the sample
Answer:
[tex]Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass=4.8\%[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Mass of mixture [tex]m=3.455g[/tex]
Mass of Barium [tex]m_b=0.2815g[/tex]
Equation of Reaction is given as
[tex]Ba2+ + H2SO4 => BaSO4 + 2 H+[/tex]
Generally the equation for Moles of Barium is mathematically given by
Since
[tex]Moles of Ba^{2+} = Moles of BaSO_4[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]Moles of Ba^{2+} = \frac{mass}{molar mass of BaSO4}[/tex]
[tex]Moles of Ba^{2+} = \frac{0.2815}{233.39}= 0.0012061 mol[/tex]
Generally the equation for Mass of Barium is mathematically given by
[tex]Mass\ of\ Ba^{2+} = Moles * Molar mass of Ba^{2+}[/tex]
[tex]Mass\ of\ Ba^{2+} = 0.0012061 * 137.33 = 0.1656 g[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass = mass of Ba^{2+}/mass of sample * 100%[/tex]
[tex]Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass= \frac{0.1656}{ 3.455 }* 100%[/tex]
[tex]Ba\ percentage\ in\ Mass=4.8\%[/tex]

A soluble unknown has contaminated your sample. It absorbs the same wavelength as your analyte, Allura Red dye. How will this affect your results, and what type of error is introduced
Answer:
The explanation as per the given query is presented in the following paragraph.
Explanation:
The Allura Reds Pigment or coloring increases the absorption by absorbing at around a very similar wavelength as that of the analysis.Therefore, the approximated analysis concentration or its intensity seemed substantially higher than that of the authentic one. Some positive mistake is going to exist.Thus the above is the correct explanation.
The measured absorbance will be higher, thereby creating systematic error.
Absorbance can be defined as the value or quantity of light absorbed by a given sample.The presence of impurity with a similar absorption wavelength will increase the absorbance. Moreover, systematic error is a type of error that is repeated along with different processes of measurement.In conclusion, the measured absorbance will be higher, thereby creating systematic error.

Which diagram correctly depicts the trend in electronegativity?
a.
b.
c.
d.
The electronegativity increases across the period and decreases down the group. Thus, option B is correct.
Electronegativity can be defined as the tendency of an atom to gain or attract an electron. The electronegativity has been dependent on the size of the atom, as well as the atomic number and valence electrons.
The atom with the requirement of a less number of atoms to complete its octet can easily gain the electron and thereby have high electronegativity. The atomic size also plays a role in the electronegativity of the atom.
The atom with a bigger size has the lesser force of attraction from the nucleus and thus has difficulty attracting the electron, however, the smaller size atom can easily attract the electron with the attraction force from the nucleus.
Thus, the elements with smaller sizes and a high number of valence electrons are more electronegative. In the periodic table, on moving from left to right the valence electrons increase, thus the electronegativity increases.
On moving down the group, the element size increase, thus the electronegativity decreases down the group.
The electronegativity increases across the period and decreases down the group. Thus, option B is correct.

Describe how you would prepare your assigned ester from a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. You do not need to include a detailed procedure, but you should include any necessary reagents or catalyst (solvents are not needed).
Answer:
The general preparation of esters( for example ethyl ethanoate) is through a process known as ESTERIFICATION.
Explanation:
The formation of an ester by the reaction between an alkanol and an acid is known as esterification. This reaction is extremely slow and reversible at room temperature, and is catalyzed by a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
In the preparation of one of the simpler esters known as ETHYL ETHANOATE the reactants include ethanol(an alcohol) and glacial ethanoic acid(a carboxylic acid) in the presence of concentrated tetraoxosulphate VI acid as a CATALYST. Note that, a catalyst is any substance that is able to increase the rate of a chemical reaction.
The mixture is warmed in a water bath( hot but not boiling) for about 25 minutes. The mixture is poured into a beaker partially filled with a sodium or calcium chloride to remove interacted ethanol. The ethyl ETHANOATE floats on the mixture as oily globules.

Gaseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 9.6 g of methane is mixed with 64.9 g of oxygen. Calculate the maximum mass of water that could be produced by the chemical reaction. Round your answer to significant digits.
Answer:
21.6 g
Explanation:
The reaction that takes place is:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂OFirst we convert the given masses of both reactants into moles, using their respective molar masses:
9.6 g CH₄ ÷ 16 g/mol = 0.6 mol CH₄64.9 g O₂ ÷ 32 g/mol = 2.03 mol O₂0.6 moles of CH₄ would react completely with (2 * 0.6) 1.2 moles of O₂. As there are more O₂ moles than required, O₂ is the reactant in excess and CH₄ is the limiting reactant.
Now we calculate how many moles of water are produced, using the number of moles of the limiting reactant:
0.6 mol CH₄ * [tex]\frac{2molH_2O}{1molCH_4}[/tex] = 1.2 mol H₂OFinally we convert 1.2 moles of water into grams, using its molar mass:
1.2 mol * 18 g/mol = 21.6 g
