Answer:

The correct answer is 16.61 grams methanol and 57.38 grams water.

Explanation:

The mole fraction (X) of methanol can be determined by using the formula,  

X₁ = mole number of methanol (n₁) / Total mole number (n₁ + n₂)

X₁ = n₁/n₁ + n₂ = 0.14

n₁ / n₁ + n₂ = 0.14 ---------(i)

n₁ mole CH₃OH = n₁ mol × 32.042 gram/mol (The molecular mass of CH₃OH is 32.042 grams per mole)

n₁ mole CH₃OH = 32.042 n₁ g

n₂ mole H2O = n₂ mole × 18.015 g/mol  

n₂ mole H2O = 18.015 n₂ g

Thus, total mole number is,  

32.042 n₁ + 18.015 n₂ = 74 ------------(ii)

From equation (i)

n₁/n₁ + n₂ = 0.14

n₁ = 0.14 n₁ + 0.14 n₂

n₁ - 0.14 n₁ = 0.14 n₂

n₁ = 0.14 n₂ / 1-0.14

n₁ = 0.14 n₂/0.86 ----------(iii)

From eq (ii) and (iii) we get,  

32.042 × 0.14/0.86 n₂ + 18.015 n₂ = 74

n₂ (32.042 × 0.14/0.86 + 18.015) = 74

n₂ = 74 / (32.042 × 0.14/0.86 + 18.0.15)

n₂ = 3.1854 mol

From equation (iii),  

n₁ = 0.14/0.86 n₂

n₁ = 0.14/0.86 × 3.1854

n₁ = 0.5185 mol

Now, presence of water in the mixture is,  

= 3.1854 mole × 18.015 gram per mole  

= 57.38 grams

Methanol present in the mixture is,  

= 0.5185 mol × 32.042 gram per mole

= 16.61 grams

If the car still produces 8500N, but now it accelerates at only 4 m/s2 what is the MASS
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

You can do that yourself, but there's a example question below. And, if for example, I just answer your question and you don't even try to answer. it dosent matter.

Explanation:Force=Mass x Acceleration  -or-  F=ma

where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. The units are Newtons (N) for force, kilograms (kg) for mass, and meters per second squared (m/s2) for acceleration. The other forms of the equation can be used to solve for mass or acceleration.

m=F/a and a=F/m Example:

Engineers at the Johnson Space Center must determine the net force needed for a rocket to achieve an acceleration of 70 m/s2. If the mass of the rocket is 45,000 kg, how much net force must the rocket develop?

Using Newton's second law, F=ma

F=(45,000 kg)(70 m/s2) = 3,150,000 kg m/s2 F=3,150,000 N Note that the units kg m/s2 and newtons are equivalent; that is, 1 kg m/s2

Identify the Lewis acid and Lewis base in each reaction:Na⁺ + 6H₂O ⇆ Na (H₂O)⁺₆
klemol [59]

In the reaction, Na⁺ + 6H₂O ⇆ Na (H₂O)⁺₆, Na⁺ is a Lewis acid and H₂O is a Lewis base.

<h3>What is a Lewis acid-base reaction?</h3>
  • According to the Lewis theory of acid-base reactions, acids accept pairs of electrons and bases donate pairs of electrons.
  • Any substance like H+ ion, which is capable of accepting a pair of nonbonding electrons or an electron-pair acceptor is known as a Lewis acid.
  • Any substance, like the OH- ion, that is capable of donating a pair of nonbonding electrons or an electron-pair donor is a Lewis base.
  • Here Na⁺ that is electron deficient accepts electrons from the electron donor, H₂O
  • From the Lewis theory, with no change in the oxidation numbers of any atoms, acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons.

A solution is made by mixing 55.g of thiophene C4H4S and 65.g of acetyl bromide CH3COBr.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Mole fraction of C₄H₄S = 0.55

Explanation:

Mole fraction is moles of solute / Total moles

Total moles are the sum of moles of solute + moles of solvent.

Let's find out the moles of our solute and our solvent.

Mass of solute: 55g

Mass of solvent: 65g

Mol = Mass / molar mass

55 g / 84.06 g/mol = 0.654 moles of C₄H₄S

65 g /123 g/mol = 0.529 moles of C₂H₃BrO

Total moles = 0.654 + 0.529 = 1.183 moles

Mole fraction of thiophene = Moles of tiophene / Total moles

0.654 / 1.183 = 0.55
