Answer:

3.2 g O₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of O₂, you need to (1) convert grams H₂O to moles H₂O (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles H₂O to moles O₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles O₂ to grams O₂ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 2 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given value (3.6 g).

Molar Mass (H₂O): 2(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol

Molar Mass (H₂O): 18.014 g/mol

2 H₂O -----> 2 H₂ + 1 O₂

Molar Mass (O₂): 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (O₂): 31.996 g/mol

3.6 g H₂O         1 mole               1 mole O₂           31.996 g
----------------  x  ---------------  x  ---------------------  x  ---------------  = 3.2 g O₂
                         18.014 g          2 moles H₂O          1 mole

kozerog [31]
Properties of a solution that depend only on the ratio of the number of particles of solute and solvent in the solution are known as colligative properties. For this problem, we use boiling point elevation concept.

ΔT(boiling point)  = (Kb)mi
ΔT(boiling point)  = (0.51 C-kg / mol )(4.0 mol / 2.05 kg ) (2)
ΔT(boiling point)  = 1.99 C

T(boiling point) = 101.99 C

Why are teeth not minerals?
lozanna [386]
Because your Teeth are composed of calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals. ... But bones are still not as strong as teeth. The hardest part of the human body ,teeth mostly consist of a calcified tissue called dentine. The tooth's dentine tissue is covered in enamel, that hard, shiny layer that you brush.

Why do you require an acid catalyst to make an ester? Why not just mix acid and alcohol? Describe an alternate method of making
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:Acid catalyst is needed to increase the electrophilicity of Carbonyl group of Carboxylic acid as alcohol is a weak nucleophile.

Alternatively esters can be synthesised by converting carboxylic acid into acyl chloride using thionyl chloride(SOCl_{2} and then further treating acyl chloride with alcohol.

Carboxylic acid and esters can be easily distinguished on the basis of IR as carboxylic acid would contain a broad intense peak in 2500-3200cm_{-1} corresponding to OH stretching frequency whereas esters would not contain any such broad intense peak.

Alcohol and esters can also be distinguished using IR as alcohols would contain a broad intense peak at around 3200-3600cm_{-1}

Explanation: For the synthesis of esters using alcohol and carboxylic acid we need to add a little amount of acid in the reaction . The acid used here increases the electrophilicity of carbonyl carbon and hence makes it easier for a weaker nucleophile like alcohol to attack the carbonyl carbon of acid.

The oxygen of the carbonyl group is protonated using the acidic proton which  leads to the generation of positive charge on the oxygen. The positive charge generated is delocalised over the whole acid molecule and hence the electrophilicity of carbonyl group is increased. Kindly refer attachment for the structures.

If we simply mix the acid and alcohol then no appreciable reaction would take place between them and ester formation would not take place because the carboxylic acid in that case is not a good electrophile whereas alcohol is also not a very strong nucleophile which can attack the carbonyl group.

Alternatively we can use thionyl chloride or any other reagent which can convert the carboxylic acid into acyl chloride. Acyl chloride is very elctrophilic and alcohol can very easily attack the acyl chloride and esters could be synthesized.

The carboxylic acid and ester can very easily be distinguished on the basis of broad intense OH stretching frequency peak at around 2500-3200cm_{-1} . The broad intense OH stretching frequency peak is present in carboxylic acids as they contain OH groups and absent in case of esters .

Likewise esters and alcohols can also be distinguished on the basis IR spectra as alcohols will have broad intense spectra  at around 3200-3600cm_{-1}corresponding to OH stretching frequency whereas esters will not have any such peak. Rather esters would be having a Carbonyl stretching frequency at around 1720-1760

A car travels at 35.0 mi/hr. How far has it gone in 2455 seconds?
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 23.8 miles</h3>

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>distance = velocity × time</h3>

From the question

velocity = 35.0 mi/hr

time = 2455 s = 0.68 hr

We have

distance = 35 × 0.68

We have the final answer as

<h3>23.8 miles</h3>

Hope this helps you
