Answer:

Limitations of litmus paper and phenolphthalein:

They do not give the numerical pH value.

Can differentiate only between a very strong acid and base.

The colour change can be for reasons other than acid- base reactions.

Explanation:

The litmus test is quick and simple, but it suffers from a few limitations. First, it's not an accurate indicator of pH; it does not yield a numerical pH value. Instead, it roughly indicates whether a sample is an acid or a base. Second, the paper can change colors for other reasons besides an acid-base reaction.

A 0.465 g sample of an unknown compound occupies 245 ml at 298 k and 1.22 atm. what is the molar mass of the unknown compound?

<span>we can find the number of moles of gas using the ideal gas law equation
                                                                                                 
PV = nRT
                                                                                                 
where P - pressure - 1.22 atm
                                               
V - volume - 0.245 L
                                                                                               
n - number of moles
                                                                                               
R - gas constant - 0.08206 L.atm/mol.K
                                               
T - temperature - 298 K
                                                                                               
substituting the values in the equation
                                                   
1.22 atm x 0.245 L = n x 0.08206 L.atm/mol.K x 298 K
                                               
n = 0.0122 mol
                                                                                               
molar mass of compound = mass present / number of moles therefore molar mass = 0.465 g / 0.0122 mol = 38.1 g/mol
the answer is d) 38.0 g/mol </span>

Juanita dissolves 46 g of MgBr2 (molar mass: 184.11 g/mol) in 0.5 kg of distilled water. What is the molality of the solution?
irina [24]
Formula: molality, m = n solute / kg solvent

n solute = # of moles of solute = mass(g) / molar mass

Molar mass of Mg Br2 = 184.11 g/mol

m = [46g / 184.11 g/mol] / 0.5 kg = 0.50 mol/kg

Which of the following would result in butyl phenyl ether as the major product? a. Reaction of phenoxide with 1-bromobutane b. R
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Reaction of 1-butanol with bromobenzene

Explanation:

The reaction would yield ether as the major product is the reaction of the 1-butanol with bromobenzene. This is because the reaction does not have the large percentage of the undesired side product. In fact, the major product is about 85 % in composition, compared to the 15 % of the minor product. Hence, the reaction is efficient.
