These biological compounds are nonpolar and insoluble in water:

1 answer:

6 0

The biological compounds that are nonpolar and insoluble in water are lipids. It is a group of molecules that are naturally occurring which includes sterols, waxes, fats, fat-soluble vitamins and the like. These molecules are nonpolar molecules so basically the cannot be dissolved in a polar solvent like water.

A large balloon is initially filled to a volume of 25.0 L at 353 K and a pressure of 2575 mm Hg. What volume of gas will the bal

bija089 [108]

Answer:

45.0 L is the volume of gas will the balloon contain at 1.35 atm and 253 K.

Explanation:

Using Ideal gas equation for same mole of gas as

$\frac {{P_1}\times {V_1}}{T_1}=\frac {{P_2}\times {V_2}}{T_2}$

Given ,

V₁ = 25.0 L

V₂ = ?

P₁ = 2575 mm Hg

Also, P (atm) = P (mm Hg) / 760

P₁ = 2575 / 760 atm = 3.39 atm

P₂ = 1.35 atm

T₁ = 353 K

T₂ = 253 K

Using above equation as:

$\frac {{P_1}\times {V_1}}{T_1}=\frac {{P_2}\times {V_2}}{T_2}$

$\frac{{3.39}\times {25.0}}{353}=\frac{{1.35}\times {V_2}}{253}$

$\frac{1.35V_2}{253}=\frac{3.39\times \:25}{353}$

Solving for V₂ , we get:

V₂ = 45.0 L

45.0 L is the volume of gas will the balloon contain at 1.35 atm and 253 K.

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.1005 g sample of menthol is comb

Bogdan [553]

Answer: The molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.2829g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.1159g$

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

So, in 0.2829 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.2829=0.077g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

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

So, in 0.1159 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.1159=0.0129g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1005) - (0.077 + 0.0129) = 0.0106 g

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

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.077g}{12g/mole}=0.0064moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0129g}{1g/mole}=0.0129moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.0106g}{16g/mole}=0.00066moles$

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 0.00066 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0064}{0.00066}=9.69\approx 10$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.0129}{0.00064}=19.54\approx 20$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.00066}{0.00066}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 10 : 20 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{10}H_{20}O_1=C_{10}H_{20}O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 156.27 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 156 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{156.27g/mol}{156g/mol}=1$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 20)}O_{(1\times 1)}=C_{10}H_{20}O$

Thus, the molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Which of the following would form an anion? He H N B

vagabundo [1.1K]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Nitrogen (N)

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Atoms may lose or gain electrons to achieve stability. Metal atoms lose electrons to attain stable configuration, and as a result they form positively charged ions called cations.
Non-metals on the other hand gain electrons to attain stable configuration, and as a result form negatively charged ions called anions.
Among the elements given above nitrogen (N) gains electrons to form a negatively charged ion called anion.
