Answer:

Distillation.

Explanation:

Distillation is the separation technique which can be used for separation of any two liquids of different boiling points.

The boiling point of water is near 100 degree celsius while that of alcohol is less than it.

So if we separate them with distillation, then alcohol will separate out first.

If two liquids have close boiling points then we can use fractional distillation.

Distillation method would be a good method.

2. What ions are present in what ratio in a solution of aqueous calcium chloride?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} \text { and } \mathrm{Cl} \text { - ions are present in } 1: 2 \text { ratio in a solution of aqueous calcium chloride. }$

Explanation:

Here in Calcium Chloride ionic bond is present in between calcium and chlorine atoms. As we know according to Octet rule calcium have two excess atoms and for matching nearest noble gas electronic configuration. It donate two electrons to gain more stability and form $\mathrm{Ca}^{2+}$ , while chlorine is deficient from one electron to meet nearest noble gas electronic configuration therefore two chlorine atoms accept excess electron from calcium individually and form two $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ ions.

$\text { Equation is as follows: } \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{CaCl}_{2}$

Hence aqueous solution of calcium chloride breaks the ionic bond pairing in one $\mathrm{Ca}^{2+}$ and two $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ ions: $\mathrm{CaCl}_{2} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \quad \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}(\mathrm{ag})+2 \mathrm{Cl}(\mathrm{ag})$

A 3.4 g sample of an unknown monoprotic organic acid composed of C,H, and O is burned in air to produce 8.58 grams of carbon dio

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$C_7H_6O_2$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, we can divide the problem in three stages: (1) determine the empirical formula with the combustion analysis, (2) compute the molar mass of acid via the moles of the acid in the neutralization and (3) determine the molecular formula.

(1) In this case, since 8.58 g of carbon dioxide are released, we can first compute the moles of carbon in the compound:

$n_C=8.58gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44.01gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.195molC$

And the moles of hydrogen due to the produced 1.50 grams of water:

$n_H=1.50gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18.02gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O} =0.166molH$

Next, to compute the mass and moles of oxygen, we need to use the initial 3.4 g of the acid:

$m_O=3.4g-0.195molC*\frac{12.01gC}{1molC}-0.166molH*\frac{1.01gH}{1molH} =0.89gO\\\\n_O=0.89gO*\frac{1molO}{16.0gO}=0.0556molO$

Thus, the subscripts in the empirical formula are:

$C=\frac{0.195}{0.0556}=3.5 \\\\H=\frac{0.166}{0.0556}=3\\\\O=\frac{0.0556}{0.0556}=1\\\\C_7H_6O_2$

As they cannot be fractions.

(2) In this case, since the acid is monoprotic, we can compute the moles by multiplying the concentration and volume of KOH:

$n_{KOH}=0.279L*0.1mol/L\\\\n_{KOH}=0.0279mol$

Which are equal to the moles of the acid:

$n_{acid}=0.0279mol$

And the molar mass:

$MM_{acid}=\frac{3.4g}{0.0279mol} =121.86g/mol$

(3) Finally, since the molar mass of the empirical formula is:

7*12.01 + 6*1.01 + 2*16.00 = 122.13 g/mol

Thus, since the ratio of molar masses is 122.86/122.13 = 1, we infer that the empirical formula equals the molecular one:

$C_7H_6O_2$

Best regards!

How many grams of NH3 can be produced from 2.51 mil of N2 and excess H2 ?

salantis [7]

Answer:

85.34g of NH3

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3

Step 2:

Determination of the number of moles of NH3 produced by the reaction of 2.51 moles of N2. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of N2 reacted to produce 2 moles of NH3.

Therefore, 2.51 moles of N2 will react to produce = (2.51 x 2)/1 = 5.02 moles of NH3.

Therefore, 5.02 moles of NH3 is produced from the reaction.

Step 3:

Conversion of 5.02 moles of NH3 to grams. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of NH3 = 14 + (3x1) = 17g/mol

Number of mole of NH3 = 5.02 moles

Mass of NH3 =..?

Mass = mole x molar Mass

Mass of NH3 = 5.02 x 17

Mass of NH3 = 85.34g

Therefore, 85.34g of NH3 is produced.
