Answer:

It doesn't matter which chloride

Explanation:

Because Carboxylic acids reacts with any of these inorganic chlorides such as PCl3, PCl5 and SOCl2 to form acid chloride as the major product, then the acid chloride further reacts to form acid anhydride

Answer:

Check Explanation.

Explanation:

Carboxylic acids undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions where the nucleophile (-OH) is substituted by another nucleophile.

In cases such as the reaction with inorganic chlorides, which are strong electrophiles, the partially negatively charged carbonyl oxygen (δ-) can act as a nucleophile and attack the electrophile.

So, the inorganic chlorides that Carboxylic acids react with are the ones with electrophilic centres. The ones with centres that have space to expand and accept electrons new pair of electrons.

Such inorganic chloride include SOCl₂, PCl₃ and PCl₅.

Michelle is trying to find the average atomic mass of a sample of an unknown
GREYUIT [131]

The average atomic mass of her sample is 114.54 amu

Let the 1st isotope be A

Let the 2nd isotope be B

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Abundance of isotope A (A%) = 59.34%
  • Mass of isotope A = 113.6459 amu
  • Mass of isotope B = 115.8488 amu
  • Abundance of isotope B (B%) = 100 – 59.34 = 40.66%
  • Average atomic mass =?

The average atomic mass of the sample can be obtained as follow:

Average \: atomic \: mass \:  =  \frac{mass \: of \: A \times A\%}{100}  + \frac{mass \: of \: B \times B\%}{100}  \\  \\ Average \: atomic \: mass \:  =  \frac{113.6459\times 59.34}{100} + \frac{115.8488\times 40.66}{100} \\  \\ Average \: atomic \: mass \:  = 114.54 \: amu  \\  \\

Thus, the average atomic mass of the sample is 114.54 amu

The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O,in grams, must react to produce 50.00
N76 [4]
Answer is: mass of water is 56.28 grams.
Chemical reaction: 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂.
m(O₂) = 50.00 g.
n(O₂) = m(O₂) ÷ M(O₂).
n(O₂) = 50 g ÷ 32 g/mol.
n(O₂) = 1.5625 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(O₂) : n(H₂O) = 1 : 2.
n(H₂O) = 2 · 1.5625 mol.
n(H₂O) = 3.125 mol.
m(H₂O) = n(H₂O) · M(H₂O).
m(H₂O) = 3.125 mol · 18.01 g/mol.
m(H₂O) = 56.28 g.
