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 118-ml flask is evacuated and found to have a mass of 97.129 g. when the flask is filled with 768 torr of helium gas at 35 ?c,
Inessa05 [86]
The full question asks to decide whether the gas was a specific gas. That part is missing in your question. You need to decide whether the gas in the flask is pure helium.

To decide it you can find the molar mass of the gas in the flask, using the ideal gas equation pV = nRT, and then compare with the molar mass of the He.

From pV = nRT you can find n, after that using the mass of gass in the flask you use MM = mass/moles.

1) From pV = nRT, n = pV / RT

Data:
V = 118 ml = 0.118 liter
R = 0.082 atm*liter/mol*K
p = 768 torr * 1 atm / 760 torr = 1.0105 atm
T = 35 + 273.15 = 308.15 K

n = 1.015 atm * 0.118 liter / [ 0.082 atm*liter/K*mol  * 308.15K] =0.00472 mol

mass of gas = mass of the fask with the gas - mass of the flasl evacuated = 97.171 g - 97.129 g = 0.042

=> MM =  mass/n = 0.042 / 0.00472 = 8.90 g/mol

Now from a periodic table or a table you get that the molar mass of He is 4g/mol

So the numbers say that this gas is not pure helium , because its molar mass is more than double of the molar mass of helium gas.

What type of chemical reaction is Cu(NO3)2 + NaOH to Cu(OH)2 + NaNO3
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Cu(NO 3) 2 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq) → Cu(OH) 2 (s) + 2 NaNO 3 (aq) This is a precipitation reaction: Cu(OH) 2 is the formed precipitate.
