A 5.2 molal aqueous solution of methyl alcohol, CH3OH, is supplied. What is the mole fraction of methyl alcohol in the solution?

telo118 [61]

Answer:

0.086

Explanation:

A 5.2 molal aqueous solution of methyl alcohol indicates that 5.2 moles of methyl alcohol are present in 1 kilogram (or 1000 g) of water. Water has a molecular weight of 18 g/mol.

(100g)/18g/mol=55.56 mol

5.2 mol/(5.2mol+55.56 mol)=0.086

A cylinder with a moving piston expands from an initial volume of 0.350 L against an external pressure of 1.90 atm. The expansio

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

1.84 L

Explanation:

Using the equation for reversible work:

$W = -P*(V_{2} - V_{1})$

Where:

W is the work done (J) = -287 J.

Since the gas did work, therefore W is negative.

P is the pressure in atm = 1.90 atm.

However, work done is in joules and pressure is in atm. We can use the values of universal gas constant as a convenient conversion unit. R = 8.314 J/(mol*K); R = 0.0821 (L*atm)/(mol*K)

Therefore, the conversion unit is 0.0821/8.314 = 0.00987 (L*atm)/J

$V_{1}$ is the initial volume = 0.350 L

$V_{2}$ is the final volume = ?

Thus:

(-287 J)*0.00987 (L*atm)/J = -1.9 atm*( $V_{2}$ - 0.350) L

$V_{2}$ = [(287*0.00987)+(1.9*0.350)]/1.9 = (2.833+0.665)/1.9 =1.84 L

Which contains the greatest mass of oxygen: 0.75 moles of ethanol ( C2H5OH ), 0.60 mole of formic acid ( HCO2H ), or 1.0 mole of

Luda [366]

Answer:

In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O

Explanation:

Let's make some rules of three, to solve this problem:

1 mol of ethanol has 2 moles of C, 6 moles of H, and 1 mol of oxygen

Therefore, 0.75 moles of ethanol must have 0.75 mol of oyxgen

Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.75 mol . 16 g/ 1 mol = 12 g

1 mol of formic acid has 2 moles of H, 1 mol of C and 2 mol of oxygen

0.60 moles of formic acid must have (0.6 .2) / 1 = 1.2 mol of O

If we convert the amount to mass → 1.2 mol . 16 g/ 1mol = 19.2 g

1 mol of water has 1 mol of oyxgen

Therefore, we have 1 mol of oxygen with a mass of 16 g.

In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O

What is the net charge of C

sashaice [31]

Explanation:

Sorry, I don't know, but I can tell you that when an atom, or a body, has the same amount of positive charges (protons) and negative charges (electrons), it is said to be electrically neutral. ... The net charge corresponds to the algebraic sum of all the charges that a body possesses.
