The balanced chemical reaction would be as follows:
2H2O2 = 2H2O + O2
We are given the amount of the peroxide that decomposes. Using this as the starting point for the calculations, we can determine the amount of O2 produced. We do as follows:
14.3 mol H2O2 ( 1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O2 ) = 7.15 mol O2 produced
Answer:
A feasible error could have been the removal of the sample before all water evaporated.
Explanation:
In order to determine the percentage of water in an hydrate, an experiment that could be performed is the heating of the sample until the mass does not change. If the student heated the sample an insufficient amount of time, water will be present in the sample, thus reducing the percentage reported.
Answer:
2,3–dimethylpentane
Explanation:
To know which option is correct, we shall determine the name of the compound.
To obtain the name of the compound, do the following:
1. Determine the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.
2. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.
3. Locate the position of the substituent group by giving it the lowest possible count.
4. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.
Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:
1. The longest continuous carbon chain is 5. Thus, the parent name of the compound is pentane.
2. The substituent group attached is methyl (–CH₃)
3. There are two methyl group attached to the compound. One is located at carbon 2 and the other at carbon 3.
4. Therefore, the name of the compound is:
2,3–dimethylpentane
None of the options are correct.
