Answer: Multiple answers to this question. This is what I comprehend.

Explanation:

Upon analysis of the results, a theory can be rejected or modified, but it can never be proven to be correct 100 percent of the time. For example, relativity has been tested many times, so it is generally accepted as true, but there could be an instance, which has not been encountered, where it is not true.

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

0.87g

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

MnO2(s) + 4HCl(aq) —> MnCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l) + Cl2(g)

Step 2:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Volume (V) of Cl2 obtained = 235mL

Temperature (T) = 25°C

Pressure (P) = 805 Torr

Step 3:

Conversion to appropriate unit.

For Volume:

1000mL = 1L

Therefore, 235mL = 235/1000 = 0.235L

For temperature:

Temperature (Kelvin) = temperature (celsius) + 273

Temperature (celsius) = 25°C

Temperature (Kelvin) = 25°C + 273 = 298K

For Pressure:

760 Torr = 1 atm

Therefore, 805 Torr = 805/760 = 1.06 atm

Step 4:

Determination of the number of mole of Cl2 produced. This is illustrated below:

The number of mole (n) of Cl2 produced can be obtained by using the ideal gas equation as follow:

PV = nRT

Volume (V) = 0.235L

Temperature (T) = 298k

Pressure (P) = 1.06 atm

Gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

Number of mole (n)

PV = nRT

Divide both side by RT

n = PV /RT

n = (1.06 x 0.235)/(0.082 x 298)

n = 0.01 mole

Therefore 0.01 mole of Cl2 is produced from the reaction.

Step 5:

Determination of the number of mole MnO2 that produce 0.01 mole of Cl2. This is illustrated below:

MnO2(s) + 4HCl(aq) —> MnCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l) + Cl2(g)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of MnO2 produced 1 mole of Cl2.

Therefore, it will take 0.01 mole to MnO2 to also produce 0.01 mole of Cl2.

Step 6:

Converting 0.01 mole of MnO2 to grams.

This is illustrated below:

Number of mole MnO2 = 0.01 mole

Molar Mass of MnO2 = 55 + (2x16) = 87g/mol

Mass of MnO2 =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of MnO2 = 0.01 x 87

Mass of MnO2 = 0.87g

Therefore, 0.87g of MnO2 is needed for the reaction.

Which pair of compounds are structural isomers of each other? pentane and 2-methyl pentane pentane and hexane hexane and 2-methy
mojhsa [17]
Hexane and 2-methylpentane. If you draw the structures out, you can see that both isomers have 6 carbon atoms and 14 hydrogen atoms. Hence they have the same molecular formula but a different structural formula. I suggest drawing the compounds out for these types of questions to visualise it.
