The chemical reaction is given as:

<span>C8H10+3O2 = C8H6O4+2H2O

We are given the initial amount of para-xylene for the reaction. We use this amount and the relation of substances from the reaction to obtain the amount of the acid produced.

204 g ( 1 mol / 106.18 g ) ( 1 mol C8H6O4 / 1 mol C8H10 ) ( 166.14 g / mol ) = 319.20 g terephthalic acid</span>

7. A square chunk of plastic has a length of 5 cm, width of 5 cm and height of 5 cm. It has a mass of 200 g. What is its density
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

d=1.6\ g/cm^3

Explanation:

Given that,

The dimension of a square chunk of plastic is 5 cm × 5 cm × 5 cm

Mass, m = 200 g

We need to find its density

Density = mass/volume

It will form a cube. It volume = side³

So,

d=\dfrac{200\ g}{5^3\ cm^3}\\\\d=1.6\ g/cm^3

Hence density is 1.6\ g/cm^3

Enter your answer in the provided box.A mixture of helium and neon gases is collected over water at 28°C and 791 mmHg. If the pa
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using Dalton's law of partial pressure

P total pressure = Pressure of helium + Pressure of neon + Vapor pressure of water

P = 28.3 mmHg, Pressure of helium = 381 mmHg, Vapor pressure of water at 28°C

791 mmHg - 381 mmHg - 28.3 mmHg = Pressure of neon

Pressure of neon = 381.7 mmHg

Compound A melts at 801o C and is soluble
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Explanation:

Organic compounds are defined as the compounds which contain carbon as their main element. For example, CH_{3}OH is an organic compound.

Generally, organic compounds are non-polar in nature and due to the presence of covalent bonding organic compounds have low melting point.

As compound A melts at 801^{o}C and is soluble  in water. This means it is an ionic compound as it has high melting point and it is also polar in nature.

Whereas compound B melts at 24^{o}C and is insoluble  in water. This means that this compound has covalent bonding and it is also non-polar in nature . Hence, it is more likely to be organic in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that compound B is more likely to be an organic

compound.
