In an isothermal gas chromatography experiment using an ECD detector, 1.69 nmols of nchlorohexane, C6H13Cl, was added as an inte

rnal standard to an unknown amount of nchlorodecane, C10H21Cl. The area of the first peak to elute was 32434 units and the area of the second peak to elute was 2022 units. Calculate the amount of chlorodecane in the unknown.

Answer:

The amount of Chlorodecane in the unknown is 0.105nmols

Explanation:

a) Since the GC is in an isothermal state, Chlorohexane C6H13Cl (1.69 nmols) because of its lower boiling point will elute first and Chlorodecane C12H21Cl will elute second.

The area of the first peak corresponding to Chlorohexane is 32434 units.

The area of the second peak corresponding to chlorodecane is 2022 units.

Since the response factor of the compound is not given in question and considering the response factor is same for both the compounds, the answer will be as follow:

1.69 nmols of Chlorohexane gives 32434 units

How much of chlorodecane gives 2022 units

By cross multiplication;

Moles of Chlorodecane = 2022*1.69/32434

                                         =0.105nmols

A sample of methane collected when the temp was 30 C mmHg measures 398 mL. What would be the volume of the sample at -5 C and 61
Levart [38]
<h2>Question </h2>

A sample of methane collected when the temp was 30 C and 760mmHg measures 398 mL. What would be the volume of the sample at -5 C and 616 mmHg pressure

<h2>Answer:</h2>

434.32mL

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using the combined gas law:

\frac{PV}{T} = k

Where;

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature

k = constant.

It can be deduced that:

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2} = k           ---------------------(i)

Where:

P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressures of the given gas

V₁ and V₂ are the initial and final volumes of the given gas

T₁ and T₂ are the initial and final temperatures of the gas.

<em>From the question:</em>

the gas is methane

P₁  = 760mmHg

P₂ = 616mmHg

V₁ = 398mL

V₂ = ?

T₁ = 30°C = (30 +273)K = 303K

T₂ = -5°C = (-5 +273)K = 268K

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

\frac{760*398}{303} = \frac{616*V_2}{268}

Solve for V₂

V₂ = \frac{760*398*268}{616*303}

V₂ = 434.32mL

Therefore, the volume of the sample at -5C and 616mmHg pressure is 434.32mL

What is the oxidation number of S In Li2SO4? <br><br>A. +1<br>B. +2<br>C. +5<br>D. +6​
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

Li has an oxydation number of 1          2*1     = 2

O has an oxidation number of -2         4(-2) = -8

S has an oxydation number of x           1 * x = x

The oxidation number on the molecule is 0.

So here is the equation

2 - 8 + x = 0        Combine like terms

-6 + x = 0            Add 6 to both sides

-6 + 6 + x = 6      Combine like terms

x = 6

Sulphur in this case has an oxidation number of 6

Which of the following is a property of an ionic compound?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

C. Involves a metal and a nonmetal.

Explanation:

Ionic compound involves a metal and a non-metal. Ionic compounds have electrovalent bonds between them.

These compounds are usually made up of metals and non - metals combining to form a unit.

  • The metals usually has low electronegativity and transfers it electrons to the non - metal.
  • The non-metal has high affinity for the electron.
  • The electrostatic attraction between the ions formed results in the ionic bond.
