A chemical symbol designates an element that belongs to the periodic table.

A chemical formula combines two or more symbols and it represents a chemical compound. We notice that the chemical symbols are followed oftenly by a subscript that represents the mole proprtions of next element.

Express in scientific notation. Make sure your answer has the same number of significant figures as the starting value. (1.8 x 1
slamgirl [31]

Answer : The answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is defined as the way or representation of expressing the number that are too big or too small that is written in the decimal form. That means always written in the power of 10 form.

For example : 8000 is written as, 8.0\times 10^3  in this notation, the significant figure is, 1 but 0.8\times 10^4  in this notation, the significant figures are, 2

The given problem are :

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-2}}{9\times 10^2}=0.2\times 10^{-4}

According to the divide and multiplication rules of scientific figures, the final answer is only as precise as the value with the least number of significant figures.

Hence, the answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

The metal content of iron in ores can be determined by a redox procedure in which the sample is first oxidized with Br2 to conve
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

80.27%

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 Fe³⁺(aq) + Sn²⁺(aq) ⇒ 2Fe²⁺(aq) + Sn⁴⁺(aq)

First, we have to calculate the moles of Sn²⁺ that react.

\frac{0.1015molSn^{2+} }{1L} .13.28 \times 10^{-3} L=1.348\times 10^{-3}molSn^{2+}

We also know the following relations:

  • According to the balanced equation, 1 mole of Sn²⁺ reacts with 2 moles of Fe³⁺.
  • 1 mole of Fe³⁺ is oxidized from 1 mole of Fe.
  • The molar mass of Fe is 55.84 g/mol.

Then, for 1.348 × 10⁻3 moles of Sn²⁺:

1.348\times 10^{-3}molSn^{2+}.\frac{2molFe^{3+} }{1molSn^{2+} } .\frac{1molFe}{1molFe^{3+} } .\frac{55.84gFe}{1molFe} =0.1505gFe

If there are 0.1505 g of Fe in a 0.1875 g sample, the mass percentage of Fe is:

\frac{0.1505g}{0.1875g} \times 100 \% = 80.27\%

1. Magnesium chloride solution reacts with silver nitrate solution to form magnesium nitrate
Whitepunk [10]

a. 1,4332 g

b. 7.54~g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

MgCl2 (s) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) → Mg(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 AgCl (s)

20 cm of 2.5 mol/dm^3 of MgCl2

20 cm of 2.5 g/dm^3 of MgCl2

Required

the mass of silver chloride - AgCl

Solution

a. mol MgCl2 :

\tt 20~cm^3=20\times 10^{-3}~dm^3\\\\mol=M\times V\\\\mol=2.5~mol/dm^3\times 20\times 10^{-3}DM^3=0.05

From equation, mol AgCl = 2 x mol MgCl2=2 x 0.05=0.1

mass AgCl(MW=143,32 g/mol)= 0.1 x 143,32=1,4332 g

b. mol MgCl2 (MW=95.211 /mol):

\tt mol=M\times V\\\\mol=\dfrac{2.5~g/dm^3}{95,211 g/mol}=0.0263~mol/dm^3

From equation, mol AgCl = 2 x mol MgCl2=2 x 0.0263=0.0526

mass AgCl(MW=143,32 g/mol)= 0.0526 x 143,32=7.54~g

Predict how many H1 NMR signals (individual resonances, not counting splitting) are expected for the compound.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

3 H1 NMR signals

Explanation:

NB: kindly check the diagram of the chemical compound in the attached picture.

This particular Question is based on the part of chemistry which is known as spectroscopy. Spectroscopy is used in the Determination or in identifying chemical compounds. H'NMR works on the principle of nuclear magnetic resonance.

In order to solve this question, one has to count the number of hydrogen in unique location. The diagram in the attached show how hydrogen is been counted.

The numbers of signals is the number of different chemical environments in which hydrogen atoms are located.

NB: signals is also the same as peak in H'NMR.

Hence, the number of H1 NMR signals in this chemical compound is 3.

The reaction of pyrrole with bromine forms predominantly __________. View Available Hint(s) The reaction of pyrrole with bromine
xenn [34]

Answer:

a) 2-bromopyrrole

Explanation:

Our options for this questions are:

a) 2-bromopyrrole

b) 2,3-dibromopyrrole

c) N-bromopyrrole

d) 3-bromopyrrole

To understand how the reaction works we have to start with the <u>resonance structures</u>. (Figure 1), on these structures, we will obtain a n<u>egative charge on carbon 2</u> in the pyrrole ring, therefore on this carbon we can generate an attack to an electrophile.

The second step is to check how the mechanism take place. An <u>electrophile is generated</u> by the Br_2 and FeBr_3. This electrophile can be <u>attacked</u> by the negative charge on carbon 2 producing the 2-bromopyrrole. (See figure 2).

I hope it helps!
