Answer:
697 g
Explanation:
Ethanol (C₂H₅OH) and butanoic acid (C₃H₇COOH) react to form ethyl butanoate (C₃H₇COOC₂H₅) and water (H₂O).
C₂H₅OH + C₃H₇COOH → C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ + H₂O
The molar ratio of C₂H₅OH to C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ is 1:1. The moles of C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ produced from 6.00 moles of C₂H₅OH are:
6.00 mol C₂H₅OH × (1 mol C₃H₇COOC₂H₅/1 mol C₂H₅OH) = 6.00 mol C₃H₇COOC₂H₅
The molar mass of C₃H₇COOC₂H₅ is 116.16 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 6.00 mol is:
6.00 mol × (116.16 g/mol) = 697 g
False
Although we use many of their ideas to describe atoms today, such as the existence of a tiny, dense nucleus in an atom (proposed by Rutherford), or the notion that all atoms of an element are identical (proposed by Dalton), some of their ideas have been rejected by the modern theory of the atom.
For example, Thompson came up with the plum pudding model to describe an atom, which resembled a sphere of positive charge with electrons embedded in it. We know now, however, that atoms are mostly empty space with a tiny, dense nucleus.
Another example is Dalton's atomic theory, which stated that atoms are indivisible particles. However, this was disproved by the discovery of subatomic particles.
