Minchanka [31]3 years ago

Answer : 0.0392 grams of Zn metal would be required to completely reduced the vanadium.

Explanation :

Let us rewrite the given equations again.

2VO_{2}^{+} (aq)+ 4H^{+}(aq) + Zn (s)\rightarrow 2VO^{2+}(aq)+Zn^{2+}+2H2O(l)2VO^{2+}(aq)+ 4H^{+}(aq) + Zn (s)\rightarrow 2V^{3+} (aq)+Zn^{2+}+2H2O(l)

2V^{3+} (aq)+ Zn (s)\rightarrow 2V^{2+}(aq)+Zn^{2+}(aq)

On adding above equations, we get the following combined equation.

2VO_{2}^{+} (aq)+ 8H^{+} (aq) + 3Zn (s)\rightarrow 2V^{2+}(aq)+3Zn^{2+}(aq)+4H_{2}O(l)

We have 12.1 mL of 0.033 M solution of VO₂⁺.

Let us find the moles of VO₂⁺ from this information.

12.1 mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL}\times \frac{0.033mol}{L}=0.0003993mol NO_{2}^{+}

From the combined equation, we can see that the mole ratio of VO₂⁺ to Zn is 2:3.

Let us use this as a conversion factor to find the moles of Zn.

0.0003993mol NO_{2}^{+}\times \frac{3mol Zn}{2molNO_{2}^{+}}=0.00059895mol Zn

Let us convert the moles of Zn to grams of Zn using molar mass of Zn.

Molar mass of Zn is 65.38 g/mol.

0.00059895mol Zn\times \frac{65.38gZn}{1molZn}=0.0392gZn

We need 0.0392 grams of Zn metal to completely reduce vanadium.

A beaker is filled to the 500 mL mark with alcohol. What increase in volume (in mL) does the beaker contain when the temperature
Aliun [14]

Answer:

"1.4 mL" is the appropriate solution.

Explanation:

According to the question,

  • v_0=500
  • \alpha =1.12\times 10^{-4}
  • \Delta \epsilon = 25

Now,

Increase in volume will be:

⇒ \Delta V = \alpha\times v_0\times \Delta \epsilon

By putting the given values, we get

           =1.12\times 10^{-4}\times 500\times 25

           =1.12\times 10^{-4}\times 12500

           =1.4  \ mL

How many liters are in 5.98 moles of nitrogen gas at STP?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is c) 134L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV =nRT. The normal conditions of temperature and pressure are 273K and 1 atm, we use the gas constant = 0, 082 l atm / K mol.

1 atm x   V = 5, 98 mol x 0, 082 l atm / K mol x 273 K

V = 5, 98 mol x 0, 082 l atm / K mol x 273 K / 1 atm

V = 133, 86828 l

What are the reasons for existence of large number of organic compounds in nature.Explain ​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

because of catenation of carbon.

Explanation:

Catenation is the binding of an element to its self through covalent bonds to form chain or ring molecules. carbon is able to form continuous links with other carbon atoms which is the reason for the existence of a large number of organic compounds.

What is the total mass of Hydrogen in each of the molecules?
frutty [35]

Explanation:

a) In 1 mole of methane there are 4 moles of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of methane = 4 × 1 g = 4 g

b) In 1 mole of chloroform there are 1 mole of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of methane = 1× 1 g = 1 g

c) In 1 mole of C_{12}H_{10}O_{16} there are 10 moles of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of C_{12}H_{10}O_{16} = 10 × 1 g = 10 g

d)In 1 mole of CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3 there are 12 moles of hydrogen atom.

CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3=C_5H_{12}

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3 = 12 × 1 g = 12 g

How many moles of solute are contained in a 250.0-milliliter solution that has a concentration of 0.85 M?
adoni [48]

Answer : The correct option is, 0.21 moles

Solution : Given,

Molarity of the solution = 0.85 M = 0.85 mole/L

Volume of solution = 250 ml = 0.25 L     (1L=1000ml)

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of the solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in liters}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the moles of solute of the solution.

0.85mole/L=\frac{\text{moles of solute}}{0.25L}

\text{moles of solute}=0.2125=0.21moles

Therefore, the moles of solute is, 0.21 moles
