A solid metal oxide crystallizes in a cubic unit cell. In the unit cell there are metal (M) ions on every corner and in the cent

er of every face. Oxide ions (O) are found in half of the tetrahedral holes. What is the empirical formula of this metal oxide?

Answer:

The empirical formula of the solid metal oxide is : MO

Explanation:

M atom is present in the every corner and in the center of every face.

Number of m atoms :

\frac{1}{8}\times 8+\frac{1}{2}\times 6=4

Number of tetrahedral voids in F.C.C = 2n = 2 × 4 = 8

Oxide ion is present in the half of the tetrahedral void

Number oxide ions = \frac{8}{2}=4

The molecular formula of the solid metal oxide is : M_4O_4=MO

The empirical formula represent the lowest number of atoms present in a compound.

The empirical formula of the solid metal oxide is : MO

Suppose a student started with 142.0 mg of trans-cinnamic acid, 412 mg of pyridinium tribromide, and 2.30 mL of glacial acetic a
nirvana33 [79]

Answer: Theoretical Yield = 0.2952 g

               Percentage Yield = 75.3%

Explanation:

Calculation of limiting reactant:

n-trans-cinnamic acid moles = (142mg/1000) / 148.16 = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol

pyridium tribromide moles = (412mg/1000) / 319.82= 1.288*10⁻³ mol

  • n-trans-cinnamic acid is the limiting reactant

The molar ratio according to the equation mentioned is equals to 1:1

The brominated product moles is also = 9.584*10⁻⁴ mol

Theoretical yield = (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (Mr of brominated product)

                             =  (9.584*10⁻⁴ mol) * (307.97) = 0.2952 g

Percentage Yield is : Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield = 0.2223/0.2952

                                                                                           = 75.3%

What functional group consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter B.

Explanation:

Carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom    C= O,

a) Carbohydrate group   this group does not exist

b)Carbonyl group  This option is right, carbonyl group is C=O

c) Hydroxyl group  This option is incorrect, hydroxyl group is OH, very different from C=O

d) Ketone group Ketone group does not exist, ketones have the same functional group as aldehydes (C=O)

You are given a 2.9237 g sample of a substance with the generic formula MCl2(H2O)6. After completely drying the sample (which me
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

M is cobalt (Co)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of MCl2(H2O)6 = 2.9237 grams

After completely drying the sample (which means removing the 6 moles of H2O per mole of MCl2), the sample weighs 1.5941 g.

Step 2: Calculate mass of water

Mass of water = 2.9237 - 1.5941  = 1.3296 grams

Step 3: Calculate moles water

Moles water = mass water / molar mass water

Moles water = 1.3296 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles water = 0.07378 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of the whole substance

For 1 mol MCl2(H2O)6 we have 6 moles H2O

Number of moles of the whole substance = 0.07378 / 6 = 0.01230 moles

Step 5: Calculate molar weight of the substance

Molar weight = mass / moles

Molar weight = 1.5941 grams / 0.01230 moles

Molar weight = 129.6 g/mol

Step 6: Calculate molar weight of M

Molecular weight of M = 129.6 - (2*35.45)

Molecular weight of M = 58.7 g/mol

M is cobalt (Co)
