Answer: H₂O₂ (94%) > Air (23%) > Exhaled air (13%) > NaHCO₃ (0%)


Initial important note:


Although NaHCO₃ contents oxygen atoms, and you can calculate its compositoin, the resulting gas does not containg pure oxygen gas (O₂). For the comparisson it is not useful to calculate the content of oxygent atoms, but the concentration of O₂ gas. As such, the gas from NaHCO₃ contains 0% of pure O₂, that is why it is ranked last.


1) Air:


Source: internet


Approximate 23%. It is variable, because air is not a pure substance but a mixture of gases, whose compositon is not unique.


2) Exhaled air:


Source: internet.


Approximate 13%. The compositon of the air changes in our lungs, due to the respiration process: we inhale fresh air with around 23% of oxygen, part of this oxygen pass to the cells (lungs - blood - heart - cells) and then it is exhaled with a lower content of air and a greater content of CO₂


3) Air from the decomposition of H₂O₂.


In this case we can do a chemical calculation, since we can state the chemical equation of the reaction:


i) Chemical Equation:


H₂O₂ (g) → H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)


ii) mole ratio of the products 1 mol H₂ : 1 mol O₂


iii) convert moles into mass (grams)


1 mol H₂ × 2 × 1.008 g/mol = 2.016 g


1 mol O₂ × 2 × 15.999 g/mol = 31.998 g


Composition, % = [31.998 g / (2.016 g + 31.998 g) ] × 100 ≈ 94%



4) Air from the decomposition of NaHCO₃:


i) chemical equation:


2 NaHCO₃(s) → Na₂CO₃(s) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)


ii) mole ratio: take into account only the gases in the products:


1 mol CO₂ (g) : 1 mol H₂O


iii) mass in grams


CO₂: molar mass ia approximately 44.01 g/mol


H₂O: molar mass is approximately 18.02 g/mol


iii) Those gases although have oxygen atoms, do not hae free oxygen gas, which is what we are compariing. That means, that from the decomposition of NaHCO₃ you get 0% oxygen gas.


5) The result is:


H₂O₂ (94%) > Air (23%) > Exhaled air (13%) > NaHCO₃ (0%)

Write the molecular formula for a compound with the possible elements C, H, N and O that exhibits a molecular ion at M
liberstina [14]

Answer:

= \mathbf{C_3H_6O}

Explanation:

From the given information, since the molecular mass of the ion M+ is not given;

Let's assume M+ = 58.0423

So, by applying the 13th rule;

we will need to divide the mass by 13, after dividing it;

The quotient n = no. of carbon; &

The addition of the quotient (n) with the remainder r =  no. of hydrogen.

So;

\dfrac{58}{13}= 4 \ remainder \ 6

So;

C_nH_{n+r} = C_4H_{4+6}

= C_4H_{10}

From the given information; we have oxygen present, so since the mass of oxygen = 16, we put oxygen in the molecular formula by removing CH_4. Also, since the mass is an even number then Nitrogen is 0.

So, we have:

= \mathbf{C_3H_6O}

An ore is to be analyzed for its iron content by an oxidation-reduction titration with permanganate ion. A 4.230 g sample of the
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The balanced redox reaction equation is;

8H+ + MnO4^- + 5Fe2+ ---------> Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O

Amount of KMnO4 reacted = 31.60/1000 * 0.05120 = 1.62 * 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of MnO4^- reacted with 5 moles of Fe2+

1.62 * 10^-3 moles will react with 1.62 * 10^-3 moles * 5/1 = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles  *  56 g/mol

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 0.45 g

Amount of iron in the sample =  0.45 g

Percentage of iron in the sample;

0.45 g/4.230 g  * 100 = 10.6 %
