Acetylsalicylic acid is the active ingredient in aspirin. It took 35.17 mL of 0.5065 M sodium hydroxide to react completely with

3.210 g of acetylsalicylic acid. Acetylsalicylic acid has one acidic hydrogen. What is the molar mass of acetylsalicylic acid?

Answer:

the molar mass of Acetylsalicylic acid is 180.2 g.

Explanation:

Knowing that Acetylsalicylic acid (AA-H) has one acidic proton, we can write the equation for the reaction with NaOH as follows:

AA-<u>H </u>+ NaOH → AA-Na + H₂O (underlined is the acidic proton)

From the equation, we know that 1 mol NaOH reacts with 1 mol AA-H.

The moles of NaOH that react with AA-H can be calculated using the data provided by the problem since we have the volume and the concentration of the NaOH used:

mol NaOH = V * C  where V = volume and C = concentration.

The molar concentration (M) is the number of moles present in 1 liter solution, then, the NaOH solution used has 0.5065 mol NaOH in 1000 ml.

The moles of NaOH used in the reaction can be calculated this way:

mol NaOH = 35.17 ml * (0.5065 mol / 1000 ml) = 0.01781 mol

Then, because 1 mol NaOH reacts with 1 mol AA-H, there must be 0.01781 mol AA-H that react with 0.01781 mol NaOH.

This number of mol of AA-H has a mass of 3.210 g according to the information provided by the problem. Then the mass of a single mol (the molar mass) must be:

molar mass = 1 mol * 3.210 g / 0.01781 mol = <u>180.2 g</u>

What mass of water is produced by the combustion 1.2 x 10^26 molecules of butane ?
podryga [215]

Answer:

17.934 kg of water

Explanation:

If balanced equation is not given; this format can come in handy.

For any alkane of the type : CₙH₂ₙ₊₂ , it's combustion reaction will follow:

2CₙH₂ₙ₊₂ + (3n+1) O₂  →  (2n)CO₂ + 2(n+1) H₂O

For butane:

2C₄H₁₀(g) + 13O₂(g) →  8CO₂(g) + 10H₂O(l)

2 moles of butane gives 10 moles of water.

1 mol of any substance has Avogadro number(N) of molecules in it( 6.022 x 10²³)

Mass of 1 mole of any substance is equal to it's molar mass

So, if 2 x N molecules of butane gives 10 x 18 g of water.

Then  1.2 x 10²⁶ molecules will give:

\frac{1.2 \times 10^{26} \times 180}{2 \times 6.022 \times  10^{23}}

= 17.934 x 10³ g of water

= 17.934 kg of water

An electron can be added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with
Lilit [14]

An electron can be added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with 8 valence electrons

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

An atom can be defined as the smallest part of an element which can take part in a chemical reaction.

However whenever, an electron is added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with 8 different valence electrons

So therefore; an electron can be added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with 8 valence electrons

How many molecules are contaiined in 125 grams of water, H2O?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Water has a molar mass of 18.015 g/mol . This means that one mole of water molecules has a mass of 18.015 g . So, to sum this up, 6.022⋅1023 molecules of water will amount to 1 mole of water, which in turn will have a mass of 18.015 g . 2.7144moles H2O ⋅6.022⋅1023molec.
