How can these objects all weigh the same but be different sizes?

A chemistry student needs 50.0 g of methyl acetate for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, t

slamgirl [31]

Explanation:

As density is defined as the mass of a substance divided by its volume.

Mathematically, Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

It is given that mass is 50 g and density is 0.934 $g/cm^{3}$ .

Hence, calculate the volume of methyl acetate as follows.

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

0.934 $g/cm^{3}$ = $\frac{50 g}{volume}$

Volume = $53.53 cm^{3}$

or, = $53.53 ml$ (as 1 $cm^{3}$ = 1 mL)

Thus, we can conclude that the volume of methyl acetate the student should pour out is $53.53 ml$ .

The formation of iodine is described by the following chemical equation:

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

N2O2(g) +O2(g) ===> 2NO2(g)

Explanation:

For a nonelementary reaction, the reaction equation is described as the sum of all the steps involved. All these steps constitute the reaction mechanism. Each step in the mechanism is an elementary reaction. The rate law of the overall reaction involves the rate determining step (slowest step) in the reaction sequence.

Now look at the overall reaction 2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)

The two steps in the mechanism are

2NO(g) --------->N2O2(g) (fast)

N2O2(g) +O2(g) -------> 2NO2(g) (slow)

Summing all the steps and cancelling out the intermediate N2O2(g), we obtain the reaction equation;

2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)

Hence the answer.

What percentage of the mass of hydrofluoric acid (HF) is contributed by hydrogen?

Morgarella [4.7K]

This problem is asking for the percent by mass of hydrogen in hydrofluoric acid. At the end, the answer turns out to be D. 5% as shown below:

<h3>Percent compositions:</h3>

In chemistry, percent compositions are used for us to know the relative amount of a specific element in a compound. In order to do so for hydrogen, we use the following formula, which can also be applied to any other element in a given compound:

$\% H=\frac{m_H*1}{M_{HF}}*100\%$

Where $m_H$ stands for the atomic mass of hydrogen and $M_{HF}$ for the molar mass of hydrofluoric acid. In such a way, we plug in the atomic masses of hydrogen (1.01 g/mol) and fluorine (19.0 g/mol) to obtain:
