All minerals are compounds. True False

Chemistry

True. The five characteristics necessary for a substance to be a mineral are Naturally Occurring, Inorganic, Solid, crystal structure and Definite Chemical Composition. Each mineral has its own properties because all minerals are compounds.

kherson [118]
<span>C7H8 First, determine the number of relative moles of each element we have and the molar masses of the products. atomic mass of carbon = 12.0107 atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794 atomic mass of oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 We have 5.27 mg of CO2, so 5.27 / 44.0087 = 0.119749 milli moles of CO2 And we have 1.23 mg of H2O, so 1.23 / 18.01488 = 0.068277 milli moles of H2O Since there's 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule, we have 0.119749 milli moles of carbon. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per H2O molecules, we have 2 * 0.068277 = 0.136554 milli moles of hydrogen atoms. Now we need to find a simple integer ratio that's close to 0.119749 / 0.136554 = 0.876937 Looking at all fractions n/m where n ranges from 1 to 10 and m ranges from 1 to 10, I find a closest match at 7/8 = 0.875 with an error of only 0.001937, the next closest match has an error over 6 times larger. So let's go with the 7/8 ratio. The numerator in the ratio was for carbon atoms, and the denominator was for hydrogen. So the empirical formula for toluene is C7H8.</span>

Lactic acid, C3H6O3, is a monoprotic acid that is available in solid form. Determine the concentration of an unknown solution of
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

0.497 moles/L

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • C₃H₆O₃ + NaOH → C₃H₅ONa + H₂O

First we c<u>alculate the moles of lactic acid in 0,821 g</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 0,821 g ÷ 90 g/mol = 9,122x10⁻³mol lactic acid

<em>One mole of lactic acid reacts with one mole of sodium hydroxide</em> (it is a monoprotic acid), so in 18,34 mL of NaOH solution there are  9,122x10⁻³moles of NaOH:

  • 18.34 mL ÷ 1000 = 0,01834 L
  • 9,122x10⁻³mol ÷ 0,01834 L = 0.497 moles/L

It is found that 250 ml of gas at stp has a mass of .675 g what is the molar mass
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

61.3 g/mol  

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em> to solve this problem:

       pV = nRT

Since n = m/M, the equation becomes

       pV = (m/M)RT     Multiply each side by M

    pVM = RT              Divide each side by RT

         M = (mRT)/(pV)

<em>Data: </em>

m = 0.675 g

R = 0.0.083 14 bar·L·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

T = 0 °C = 273.15 K

p = 1 bar

V = 250 mL = 0.250 L

<em>Calculation: </em>

M= (0.675 × 0.083 14 × 273.15)/(1 × 0.250)

M= 15.33/0.250

M= 61.3 g/mol

When HCl is added to water, the [H3O+] = 0.6 M. What is the [OH-]?
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>[OH-] = 1.66 × 10^-14 M</h2>

Explanation:

To find the [OH-] we must first find the pH and the pOH of the solution

That's

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH

To find the pH we use the formula

pH = -log [H3O+]

From the question

[H3O+] = 0.6 M

pH = - log 0.6

pH = 0.22

pOH = 14 - 0.22

pOH = 13.78

We can now find the [OH -] in the solution using the formula

pOH = - log [OH-]

13.78 = - log [OH-]

Find the antilog of both sides

We have the final answer as

<h3>[OH-] = 1.66 × 10^-14 M</h3>

Hope this helps you

Isaac pour the remaining chemical into the sink and apparatus were left in the sink​
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

That's a major lab mistake! Never pour chemicals in sink unless otherwise stated by the lab instructor. They should go in a properly labelled waste jar or similar container. Apparatus should not be left in sink, it should be washed and cleaned, and returned to where it came from.
