What is the approximate percent by mass of oxygen in C2H4O2

Chemistry
1 answer:
kherson [118]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Approximately 53.3  %.

Explanation:

Molar mass of C2H4O2

= 2 * 12.011 + 4 * 1.008 + 2 * 15.999

=  60.052

% oxygen = (31.998* 100) / 60.052 = 53.28 %

A compound containing Na, C, and O is found to have 1.06 mol Na, 0.528 mol C, and 1.59 mol O. What is the empirical formula of t
Effectus [21]

Given :

Moles of Na : 1.06

Moles of C : 0.528

Moles of O : 1.59

To Find :

The empirical formula of the compound.

Solution :

Dividing moles of each atom with the smallest one i.e 0.528 .

So,

Na : 1.06/0.528 = 2.007 ≈ 2

C : 0.528/0.528 = 1

O : 1.59/0.528 = 3.011 ≈ 3

Rounding all them to nearest integer, we will get the number of each atom in the empirical formula.

So, empirical formula is Na_2CO_3 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

Question #1
Potasium hydroxide (known)
 volume used is 25 ml 
Molarity (concentration) = 0.150 M
Moles of KOH used 
           0.150 × 25/1000 = 0.00375 moles
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) 
volume used = 15.0 ml
unknown concentration
The equation for the reaction is
2KOH (aq)+ H2SO4(aq) = K2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) 
Thus, the Mole ratio of KOH to H2SO4 is 2:1
Therefore, moles of H2SO4 used will be;
      0.00375 × 1/2 = 0.001875 moles
Acid (sulfuric acid)  concentration
    0.001875 moles × 1000/15  
        = 0.125 M

Question #2
Hydrogen bromide (acid)
Volume used = 30 ml
Concentration is 0.250 M
Moles of HBr used;
      0.25 × 30/1000
        =  0.0075 moles 
Sodium Hydroxide (base)
Volume used 20 ml 
Concentration (unknown)
The equation for the reaction is 
NaOH + HBr = NaBr + H2O
The mole ratio of NaOH : HBr   is 1 : 1
Therefore, moles of NaOH used;
                 = 0.0075 moles
NaOH concentration will be 
       = 0.0075 moles × 1000/20
       = 0.375 M

A method used by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for determining the concentration of ozone in air is to pass the
baherus [9]

Answer: 1. 9.08\times 10^{-6} moles

2. 90 mg

Explanation:

O_3(g)+2NaI(aq)+H_2O(l) \rightarrow O_2(g)+I_2(s)+2NaOH(aq)

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of ozone is removed by 2 moles of sodium iodide.

Thus 4.54 \times 10^{-6} moles of ozone is removed by =\frac{2}{1}\times 4.54 \times 10^{-6}=9.08\times 10^{-6} moles of sodium iodide.

Thus 9.08\times 10^{-6} moles of sodium iodide are needed to remove 4.54\times 10^{-6} moles of O_3

2. \text{Number of moles of ozone}=\frac{0.01331g}{48g/mol}=0.0003moles

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of ozone is removed by 2 moles of sodium iodide.

Thus 0.0003 moles of ozone is removed by =\frac{2}{1}\times 0.0003=0.0006 moles of sodium iodide.

Mass of sodium iodide= moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=0.0006\times 150g/mol=0.09g=90mg    (1g=1000mg)

Thus 90 mg of sodium iodide are needed to remove 13.31 mg of O_3.
