Nicotine, a component of tobacco, is composed of C, H, and N. A 7.875-mg sample of nicotine was combusted, producing 21.363 mg o

Gnom [1K]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_5H_7N$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of compound having carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen follows:

$C_xH_yN_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=21.363mg=21.363\times 10^3g=21363g$

Mass of $H_2O=6.125g=6.125\times 10^3g=6125g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 21363 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 21363=5826.27g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 6125 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 6125=680.55$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Now we have to calculate the mass of nitrogen.

Mass of nitrogen in the compound = (7875) - (5826.27 + 680.55) = 1368.18 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{5826.27g}{12g/mole}=485.52moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{680.55g}{1g/mole}=680.55moles$

Moles of Nitrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of nitrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of nitrogen}}=\frac{1368.18g}{14g/mole}=97.73moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.0154 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{485.52}{97.73}=4.96\approx 5$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{680.55}{97.73}=6.96\approx 7$

For Nitrogen = $\frac{97.73}{97.73}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : N = 5 : 7 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound nicotine is $C_5H_7N_1=C_5H_7N$

D) does not dissociate in solution.

natima [27]

Answer:

According to the proton theory of acids and bases by J. Brønsted and T. Lowry, the acid is<u> proton donor</u>.

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted lowry concept an acid is substance that gives protons or hydrogen ion while,

Base is substance that accept hydrogen ion or proton.

Consider the following example:

NH₃ + HCl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻

In this example HCl is Bronsted lowry acid it gives H⁺ while ammonia is Bronsted lowry base because it accept H⁺.

This also gives the concept of conjugate acid and base. In given example Cl⁻ is conjugate base of HCl while NH₄⁺ is conjugate acid of ammonia.
