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

Potassium nitrate decomposes on heating, producing potassium oxide and gaseous nitrogen and oxygen:
ahrayia [7]

To produce 56.6 kg of oxygen,  moles of KNO₃ = 142.915 kg

This is a stoichiometric kind of question where everything should be converted into moles in order to proceed on with the calculations.

First you find the number of moles of oxygen using the following formula:

Mole (mol) = Mass (g) / Molar Mass (g/mol)

For oxygen, the molar mass is 32g/mol.

Therefore the number of moles in 56.6 kg of oxygen is :

(56.6 × 1000)/32

= 1768.75

From the reaction equation, the ratio of KNO_{3} to O2 is 4:5.

Thus the number of moles of KNO_{3} is

1768.75 × 4/5

= 1415 mol.

If you are looking for the mass of  KNO_{3} needed then Mass (g)

= Mole (mol) × Molar Mass (g/mol),

1415 ×101 = 142,915g

= 142.915kg

What happens to potassium nitrate when heated?

When potassium nitrate is heated, it decomposes into potassium nitrite and oxygen. Write a balanced equation for this reaction and add the state symbols of the reactants and products.

What determines the path that an object in projectile motion follows?
Andre45 [30]

Projectile is like a cannon shooting a ball so it will be in "free fall"

While in free fall you are subject to gravity pulling the ball down.

Also since it's flying through the air there is air resistance.


So GRAVITY AND AIR RESISTANCE

What is the most likely evidence of an energy transformation taking place when a wite that is twisted and turned breaks
SashulF [63]

The most likely evidence of an energy transformation taking place when a <em>wire</em> is twisted and turned breaks is that the broken ends of the wire turn warm (even very hot if it was twisted and turned vigoroulsy).


The heat (thermal energy) evolves due to the internal friction developed by the relative motion of the internal particles of the wire, being kinetic energy transformed into heat energy.


It is the same phenomenon that is observed when a saw cuts a piece of metal and the reason why a cooling fluid is poured over the pieces of metal to avoid that the temperature raises too much.
