Answer:

6 mol/L

Explanation:

You should know or have the equation to solve for Molarity which is;

M = n/v (M: Molarity) (n: moles of solute) (v: Liters of solute)

You can start off differently but I would start by converting the mL to L. This is your "v" value.

50.0 mL/ 1000 mL = <em>0.05 L</em>

Now, you have to convert grams to moles in order to solve for molarity (M).

1.) On the periodic table find the molecular weights of H and O.

H= 1.01 g/mol O= 16.00 g/mol

2.) Multiply them and then add them together to have their combined molecular weights. (You have to multiply by 2 because of their equation; H2O2).

2(1.01) + 2(16.00)= 34.02 g/mol

3.) Now, you're going to use the "picket fence method" or whichever your teacher taught you to convert from grams to moles. This will be your "n" value. (I cannot show it on here without it looking weird, so my sincere apologies.)

10.0 g/ 34.02 g = <em>0.2939 mol</em>

<em />

4.)You are now going to plug in your answers into the equation for Molarity.

M= 0.2939 mol / 0.05 L = <em>5.878 mol/L</em>

5.) I am sure your professor might be a stickler so for sig figs sake when you multiply or divide use the smallest amount of sig figs you see which is 1. Round 5.878 to 6 mol/L

Sorry this explanation is very long let me know if you need a better more written out explanation.

What is the difference between a contractor and a starter

Lunna [17]

"A contactor is a electrically controlled switch which uses an electromagnetic coil to pull in the contacts.”

"A motor starter is a contactor, plus an overload relay that will drop out the coil voltage if the motor overloads. If there is not overload relay, it is not a starter any longer, it's back to being just a contactor."

Water molecules have __________ than molecules of similar size, such as ammonia and methane, reflecting its capacity to absorb l

Flura [38]

Given what we know, the ability of water to absorb more heat than the other substances mentioned is a reflection of its high boiling point.

<h3>What do we mean by boiling point?</h3>

This is the temperature at which the substance boils, and subsequently evaporates. Having a higher boiling point means that the substance will be able to absorb much more heat than that of a substance with a lower boiling point.

Therefore, Water molecules have a higher boiling point than molecules of similar size, such as ammonia and methane, reflecting its capacity to absorb large amounts of heat.

Using the following equation, 2C2H6 +7O2 -->4CO2 +6H2O, if 2.5g C2H6 react with 170g of O2, how many grams of water will be p

kirill [66]

The mass of water (H₂O) that would be produced is 4.5 g

<h3>Stoichiometry </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the mass of water that would be produced.

From the given balanced chemical equation

2C₂H₆ +7O₂ → 4CO₂ +6H₂O

This means

2 moles of C₂H₆ reacts with 7 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 6 moles of H₂O

Now, we will determine the number of moles of each reactant present

For Ethane (C₂H₆)

Mass = 2.5 g

Molar mass = 30.07 g

Using the formula,

$Number\ of\ moles = \frac{Mass}{Molar\ mass}$

Number of moles of C₂H₆ present = $\frac{2.5}{30.07}$

Number of moles of C₂H₆ present = 0.08314 mole

For Oxygen (O₂)

Mass = 170g

Molar mass = 31.999 g/mol

Number of moles of O₂ present = $\frac{170}{31.999}$

Number of moles of O₂ present = 5.3127 moles

Since

2 moles of C₂H₆ reacts with 7 moles of O₂

Then,

0.08314 mole of C₂H₆ will react with $\frac{7 \times 0.08314 }{2}$

$\frac{7 \times 0.08314 }{2}$ = 0.58198 mole

Therefore,

0.08314 mole of C₂H₆ reacts with 0.58198 mole of O₂ to produce 3 × 0.08314 moles of H₂O

3 × 0.08314 = 0.24942 mole

Thus, the number of moles of water (H₂O) produced is 0.24942 mole

Now, for the mass of water that would be produced,

Using the formula,

Mass = Number of moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of water = 18.015 g/mol

Then,

Mass of water that would be produced = 0.24942 × 18.015

Mass of water that would be produced = 4.4933 g

Mass of water that would be produced ≅ 4.5 g

Hence, the mass of water (H₂O) that would be produced is 4.5 g

Determine if the following two structures are

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Identical

Explanation:

Both compounds are identical. If you rotate the compound on the left 60 degree anticlockwise you will get the compound on the right.

These are not isomers of each other because they have same structural and molecular formulas.

Also, they are related to each other because they are the same

A sample of gas contains 0.1700 mol of NH3(g) and 0.2125 mol of O2(g) and occupies a volume of 17.8 L. The following reaction ta

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The volume of the sample after the reaction takes place is 19.78 L.

Explanation:

The given variables are;

Number of moles of NH₃(g) = 0.1700 mol

Number of moles of O₂(g) = 0.2125 mol

Volume occupied by the mixture = 17.8 L

The reaction

4NH₃(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)

Then takes place

That is 4 moles of NH₃(g) reacts with 5 moles of O₂(g) to produce 4 moles of NO(g) and 6 moles of H₂O(g).

Since there are less number of moles of NH₃(g) (= 0.1700 mol) in the mixture, we factor the above equation by the number of moles of NH₃(g) present.

That is,

1 moles of NH₃(g) reacts with 5/4 moles of O₂(g) to produce 1 moles of NO(g) and 3/2 moles of H₂O(g).

Therefore,

0.1700 mol of NH₃(g) reacts with 5/4×0.1700 moles of O₂(g) to produce 0.1700 moles of NO(g) and 3/2×0.1700 moles of H₂O(g).

Which gives

0.1700 mol of NH₃(g) reacts with 0.2125 moles of O₂(g) to produce 0.1700 moles of NO(g) and 0.255 moles of H₂O(g).

Therefore, all of the NH₃(g) and O₂(g) are consumed in the reaction and the present gases in sample then becomes

0.1700 moles of NO(g) and 0.255 moles of H₂O(g).

Total number of moles of reactant = 0.17 + 0.2125 = 0.3825

Total number of moles of product formed = 0.17 + 0.255 = 0.425

However, Avogadro's law states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contains equal number of molecules.

That is volume occupied by 0.3825 moles of gas = 17.8 L

Therefore the volume occupied by 0.425 moles of gas = 17.8×0.425/0.3825 L = 19.78 L
