Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. varying the mass per- centages of the two metals produces brasses with different proper- t

ies. a brass called yellow zinc has high ductility and strength and is 34–37% zinc by mass. (a) find the mass range (in g) of copper in 185 g of yellow zinc. (b) what is the mass range (in g) of zinc in a sample of yellow zinc that contains 46.5 g of copper?

First step: The mass of zinc in the yellow zinc sample can be calculated with the help of percentage (given) in the sample. After that, mass of copper is determine by the subtracting the mass of zinc from the total mass of zinc in the given sample.

Thus,

Mass of zinc in 34% zinc sample = 185 g yellow zinc \times \frac{34 zinc}{100 yellow zinc}

= 62.9 g zinc

Mass of zinc in 37% zinc sample = 185 g yellow zinc \times \frac{37 zinc}{100 yellow zinc}

= 68.45 g zinc

Now,

mass of copper in 34% zinc sample =185 g -62.9 g

= 122.1 g \simeq 122 g

mass of copper in 37% zinc sample = 185 g -68.45 g

=116.55 g \simeq 117 g

Thus, the range of mass of copper is 117 g to  122 g

Second step:

34% zinc sample consist of 66% copper (100-34= 66%)

37% zinc sample consist of 63% copper (100-37=63%)

Mass of zinc = (46.5 g copper) \times \frac{34 percent zinc}{66 percent copper}

= 23.95 g\simeq 24 g

Mass of zinc  =46.5 g copper \times \frac{37 percent zinc}{63 percent copper}

= 27.30 g\simeq 27g

Thus, the range of mass of zinc is 24 g to  27 g

Name each of the following species for the following acid-base reactions. (The equilibrium lies to the right in each case, i.e.,
DaniilM [7]

Answer: a) H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

The species accepting a proton is considered as a base and after accepting a proton, it forms a conjugate acid.

The species losing a proton is considered as an acid and after loosing a proton, it forms a conjugate base

For the given chemical equation:

a) H_3O^++CH_3O^-\rightleftharpoons CH_3OH+H_2O

acid : hydronium ion

base : methoxide ion

conjugate acid : methanol

conjugate base: water

b) CH_3CH_2O^-+HCl\rightleftharpoons CH_3CH_2OH+Cl^-

acid : hydrogen chloride

base : ethoxide ion

conjugate acid : ethanol

conjugate base: chloride ion

c) NH_2^-+CH_3OH\rightleftharpoons NH_3+CH_3O^-

acid : methanol

base : amide ion

conjugate acid : ammonia

conjugate base: methoxide ion

When energy transforms into mass, the amount of energy does not remain the same. When mass transforms into energy, the amount of energy also does not remain the same. However, the amount of matter and energy remains the same. ... You would weigh much less on the Moon because it is only about one-sixth the mass of Earth. So the answer is D

Suppose the flask is already at equilibrium but then the volume of the reaction flask is then reduced what will happen
sveta [45]

1) Answer is: c) The reaction will proceed right.

Balanced chemical reaction: N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) ⇄ 2NH₃(g) ΔH = +92 kJ.

Reducing the volume of the system increase the partial pressures of the products and reactants.

With a pressure increase due to a decrease in volume, the side of the equilibrium with fewer moles is more favorable, there are 4 moles at the left side (three moles of hydrogen and one mole of nitrogen) and 2 moles (ammonia) at the right side of the reaction.

2) Answer is: d) The partial pressure of ammonia will increase.

This reaction is endothermic (enthalpy is higher than zero), which means that heat is added.

According to Le Chatelier's principle when the reaction is endothermic heat is included as a reactant and when the temperature increased, the heat of the system increase, so the system consume some of that heat by shifting the equilibrium to the right,  producing more ammonia.
