Predict the geometry about each interior atom in acetic acid:

Chemistry
1 answer:
aleksandr82 [10.1K]3 years ago
5 0

The atomic structure of the acetic acid is:

                        H     O

                        l       l

                H – C – C – O – H

                        l

                        H

 

We can see from the structure that there are 2 interior atoms, and these are all Carbon atoms.


The geometry is:

Tetrahedral on First Carbon

Trigonal Planar on Second Carbon

3.75 g of an unknown gas at 59 °C and 1.00 atm is stored in a 1.35-L flask. What is the molar mass of the gas?
MAXImum [283]
You need to find moles of the gas, so you would use the ideal gas law:
PV=nRT
Pressure
Volume
n=moles
R= gas constant
Tenperature in Kelvin
n= PV/RT
(1.00atm)(1.35L)/(.08206)(332K) = 0.050mol
Molar mass is grams per mole, so
(3.75g/.050mol) = 75g/mol

Which of the following are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase? A) nitrilesB) esters C) secondary amides D) acid chlori
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chemical formula of a secondary amide is R'-CONH-R, where R and R' can be same of different alkyl or aryl groups. Here, the hydrogen atom of amide is attached to more electronegative oxygen atom of the C=O group.

Therefore, the hydrogen atom will be more strongly held by the electronegative oxygen atom. As a result, there will be  strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase of secondary amide.

Whereas chemical formula of nitriles is RCN, ester is RCOOR' and acid chlorides are RCOCl. As no hydrogen bonding occurs in any of these compounds because hydrogen atom is not being attached to an electronegative atom.

Thus, we can conclude that secondary amides are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase.

Copper was the first metal to be produced from its ore because it is the easiest to smelt, that is, to refine by heating in the
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

57.48%

Explanation:

Calculate the mass of 1 mole of malachite:

MM Cu = 63.55

MM O = 16.00

MM H = 1.01

MM C = 12.01

(Cu_{2}(OH)_{2}CO_{3})

A mole of malachite has:

2 moles of Cu

5 moles of O

2 moles of H

1 mole of C

MW Malachite = 2*MM(CU) + 5*MM(O) + 2*MM(H) + 1 *MM(C)

MW Malachite = 2*63.55 + 5*16.00 + 2*1.01 + 1*12.01

MW Malachite = 221.13

Mass of Cu in a mole of Malachite = 2*MM(CU) = 127.1

Now divide the mass of Cu by the mass of Malachite

%Cu = \frac{127.1}{221.13} =0.5748=57.48%
