Fire is actually a chemical reaction. It's an oxidation reaction to be specific. When wood gets hot enough (the part of the wood that is burning) the large hydrocarbons break down to charred solids and a gas. The gas is what reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to produced light, CO2 and H2O.
Answer is: the percent purity of the sodium bicarbonate is 56.83 %.
1. Chemical reaction: 2NaHCO₃ + H₂SO₄ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O + Na₂SO₄.
2. m(NaHCO₃) = 3.50 g
n(NaHCO₃) = m(NaHCO₃) ÷ M(NaHCO₃).
n(NaHCO₃) = 3.50 g ÷ 84 g/mol.
n(NaHCO₃) = 0.042 mol.
3. From chemical reaction: n(NaHCO₃) : n(CO₂) = 1 : 1.
n(CO₂) = 0.042 mol.
m(CO₂) = 0.042 mol · 44 g/mol.
m(CO₂) = 1.83 g.
4. the percent purity = 1.04 g/1.83 g ·100%.
the percent purity = 56.8 %.
Answer:
the empirical (lowest raios) is
C2H4Cl
Explanation:
A compound is known to consist solely of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. Through elemental analysis, it was determined that the compound is composed of 24.27% carbon.
What is the empirical formula of this compound?
the compound has ONLY C, H, and Cl
the % Cl = 100% - 24.27% -4.03% = 71.7%
in 100 gm, there are 71.7 gm Cl, 24.27 gm C, and 4.03 gm H
the number of moles are Cl=71.7/70.91 =1.01= ~ 1
C = 24.27/12.0 = 2.02 =~ 2
H = 403/1.01 = 3.97 =~ 4
so the empirical (lowest raios) is
C2H4Cl
Answer:
The time taken for the cross to become invisible decreases.
Explanation:
We know that one of the factors affecting the rate of reaction is the concentration of reactants. From the collision theory, we know that the higher the concentration of reactants, the greater the possibility of effective collision between reactants leading ultimately to an increase in the rate of reaction. Increase in the rate of reaction implies that the reaction takes a shorter time to reach completion.
In the case of the reaction shown in the question, the point when the reaction is completed is observed by the time take for the cross mark to become invisible. If we look at the given data closely, we will notice that the volume of acid was held constant, the volume of thiosulphate was increased gradually while the volume of water was decreased accordingly. This implies that the concentration of the reactants was increased. Decreasing the volume of water increases reactant concentration.
As explained above, increase in reactant concentration increases the rate of reaction. Hence, the rate of reaction of the acid and thiosulphate increases as reactant concentration increases and the cross mark becomes invisible faster. This implies that in the last column for time taken for the cross to become invisible, the values of time decreases steadily as concentration of reactants increases.
C) Tc-99 is a radioactive isotope also known as radioisoptope.
