Isopentyl acetate (C7H14O2), the compound responsible for the scent of bananas, can be produced commercially. Interestingly, bee

s release about 1μg (1 × 10-6 g) of this compound when they sting. The resulting scent attracts other bees to join the attack. (a)Calculate the number of molecules of isopentyl acetate released in a typical bee sting. (b)Calculate the number of carbon atoms present.

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 4.64 x 10 ¹⁵ molecules

b) 9.28 x 10 ¹⁵ atoms of O2

Explanation:

MW C7H14O2 = 84 + 14 + 32 = 130 g

a)        130 g of C7H14O2 ---------------- 1 mol of C7H14O2

           1 x 10 ⁻⁶ g              ---------------      x

           x = 7.7 x 10 ⁻⁹ mol

          1 mol of C7H14O2   --------------   6 .023 x 10 ²³ molecules

          7.7 x 10⁻⁹ mol          --------------    x

          x = 4.64 x 10¹⁵ molecules

b)      130 g of C7H14O2   ----------------   1 mol of C7H14O2

         1 x 10⁻⁶  C7H14O2   -----------------     x

         x = 7.7 x 10 ⁻⁹ mol of C7H14O2

        1 mol of C7H14O2    ---------------   2 mol of O2

        7.7 x 10 ⁻⁹                 ----------------   x

         x = 1.54 x 10⁻⁸ mol of O2

       1 mol of O2 -----------------  6.023 x 10 ²³ atoms

       1.54 x 10 ⁻⁸  ----------------   x

        x = 9.28 x 10 ¹⁵ atoms of O2

An unknown substance is obtained by police. The forensics laboratory has
timurjin [86]

Answer:

70.0 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of nitrogen (mN): 74.66 g
  • Mass of the compound (mNxOy): 250 g

Step 2: Calculate the mass of oxygen (mO) in the compound

The mass of the compound is equal to the sum of the masses of the elements that form it.

mNxOy = mN + mO

mO = mNxOy - mN

mO = 250 g - 74.66 g = 175 g

Step 3: Determine the percent composition of oxygen in the sample

We will use the following expression.

%O = mO / mNxOy × 100%

%O = 175 g / 250 g × 100% = 70.0 %

The greater the friction, or rubbing, between particles in any fluid, the higher the viscosity. A fluid with a high viscosity has a large amount of internal friction. As the temperature of a gas increases, friction increases, and so the viscosity of the gas increases. The warmer the gas, the slower it flows.
