Answer:
0.46 grams (C₆H₅)₂CO
Explanation:
To find the mass of benzophenone ((C₆H₅)₂CO), you need to (1) convert mmoles to moles and then (2) convert moles to grams (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 2 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value (2.5 mmoles).
Molar Mass ((C₆H₅)₂CO): 13(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol
Molar Mass ((C₆H₅)₂CO): 182.221 g/mol
2.5 mmoles (C₆H₅)₂CO 1 mole 182.221 g
----------------------------------- x ------------------------ x ------------------- =
1,000 mmoles 1 mole
= 0.46 grams (C₆H₅)₂CO
Answer:
Both involve drilling into the earth and can cause environmental degradation.
Explanation:
The two ways to measure the sand in a sand castle are by counting the number of pails of sand used to build the castle and by determining the mass of the sand used in building the castle. The first method makes use of the volume of the pail to determine the amount of sand while the second method is a more quantitative way.<span />
Because water is polar and oil is nonpolar, their molecules are not
attracted to each other. The molecules of a polar solvent like water are
attracted to other polar molecules, such as those of sugar. This explains
why sugar has such a high solubility in water. Ionic compounds, such
as sodium chloride, are also highly soluble in water. Because water
molecules are polar, they interact with the sodium and chloride ions.
In general, polar solvents dissolve polar solutes, and nonpolar solvents
dissolve nonpolar solutes. This concept is often expressed as “Like
dissolves like.”
So many substances dissolve in water that it is sometimes called
the universal solvent. Water is considered to be essential for life
because it can carry just about anything the body needs to take in
or needs to get rid of.
