Explain how to convert a mass of compound A to a mass of compound D in words with no equations using the following reaction 2A +

leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The given reaction equation is:

2A + 4B → C + 3D

We know the mass of compound A in the reaction above. We are to find the mass of compound D.

We simply work from the known mass to calculate the mass of the unkown compound D

Using the mole concept, we can find the unknown mass.

Procedures

We first find the molar mass of the compound A from the atomic units of the constituent elements.
We then use the molar mass of A to calculate its number of moles using the expression below:

Number of moles of A = $\frac{mass of A}{molar mass of A}$

Using the known number of moles of A, we can work out the number of moles of D.

From the balanced equation of the reaction, it is shown that:

2 moles of compound A was used up to produced 3 moles of D

Then $\frac{3}{2}$ x number of moles of A would give the number of moles of D

Now that we know the number of moles of D, we can find its mass using the expression below:

Mass of D = number of moles of D x molar mass of D

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is composed of 40.9 percent carbon, 4.6 percent hydrogen, and 54.5 percent oxygen. The m

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Molecular formula is : C₆H₈O₆

Explanation:

40.9 % of C, 4.6 % of H, 54.5 % of O means that in 100 g of ascorbic acid, we have 40.9 g of C, 4.6 g of H and 54.5 g of O.

If 1 mol of ascorbic acid weighs 176 g, let's determine the rules of three to know the grams of each element:

100 g of compound has ___ 40.9 g C __ 4.6 g H ___ 54.5 g O

176 g compound mus have:

(176 . 40.9) / 100 = 72 g of C

(176 . 4.6) / 100 = 8 g of H

(176 . 54.5) / 100 = 96 g of O

If we convert the mass to moles:

72 g . 1 mol / 12 g = 6 C

8 g . 1 mol/ 1g = 8 H

96 g . 1mol / 16 g = 6 O

Molecular formula is : C₆H₈O₆

In conclussion, 1 mol of ascorbic acid has 6 moles of C, 8 moles of H and 6 moles of O

How many major reservoirs does carbon move between? A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 2

Irina-Kira [14]

Carbon can also bond with other four atoms because of its outer shell (valence shell) that has four electrons. This is the reason why organic molecules can be so large because of this bonding. Suppose you have a compound of CCl4. You know that chlorine can only share 1 electron because 7 of its electrons are filled. Also, in carbon, it can only share 4 electrons because 4 of it are already filled. That is why carbon needs four chlorine to form CCl4. The answer is letter B.
