What is the empirical formula for a compound that contains 38.77% Cl and 61.23% O?

1 answer:

3 0

W(Cl)=0.3877
w(O)=0.6123
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol
M(O)=16.0 g/mol

ClₐOₓ
M(ClₐOₓ)=35.5a+16.0x

w(Cl)=35.5a/(35.5a+16.0x)
w(O)=16.0x/(35.5a+16.0x)

solve a system of two equations with two unknowns
35.5a/(35.5a+16.0x)=0.3877
16.0x/(35.5a+16.0x)=0.6123

a=2
x=7

Write the structure of the ionized form of phenylalanine

Licemer1 [7]

Amino Acids undergo a kind of acid base reaction within a molecule. The Amino group acts as a base and accepts proton from Carboxylic functional group resulting in formation of Ammonium with positive charge and a negative charge on Carboxylate. Such molecules containing both positive and negative charges are called as Zwittor Ions. Phenylalanine both in Un-ionized and Ionized form is shown below,

Give the reason for the evaporation of the solution to dryness with 6 m hcl in the first procedure of the copper-arsenic group a

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Evaporation occurred between the reaction of the hydrochloric acid and the arsenic group because there is a formation of gas. A liquid is cooled if condensation exceeds evaporation. This is because the cooling of the liquid decreases the kinetic energy of the molecules. Their movement is being restricted by the colder temperature. The molecules tend to be closer with each other. Also, because of their restricted movement, the liquid may turn into solid due the colder temperature. An example of this is the cooling of liquid water by placing it into the refrigerator into solid water (ice).

The following reactions have the indicated equilibrium constants at a particular temperature: N2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2NO(g) Kc = 4.3 ×

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

$Kc=~1.49x10^3^4}$

Explanation:

We have the reactions:

A: $N_2_(_g_) + O_2_(_g_) 2NO_(_g_)~~~~~~Kc = 4.3x10^-^2^5$

B: $2NO_(_g_)+~O_2_(_g_)~2NO_2_(_g_)~~~Kc = 6.4x10^9$

Our target reaction is:

$4NO_(_g_) N_2_(_g_) + 2NO_2_(_g_)$

We have $NO_(_g_)$ as a reactive in the target reaction and $NO_(_g_)$ is present in A reaction but in the products side. So we have to flip reaction A.

A: $2NO_(_g_) N_2_(_g_) + O_2_(_g_) ~Kc =\frac{1}{4.3x10^-^2^5}$

Then if we add reactions A and B we can obtain the target reaction, so:

A: $2NO_(_g_) N_2_(_g_) + O_2_(_g_) ~Kc =\frac{1}{4.3x10^-^2^5}$

B: $2NO_(_g_)+~O_2_(_g_)~2NO_2_(_g_)~Kc=6.4x10^9$

For the final Kc value, we have to keep in mind that when we have to add chemical reactions the total Kc value would be the multiplication of the Kc values in the previous reactions.

$4NO_(_g_) N_2_(_g_) + 2NO_2_(_g_)~~~Kc=\frac{6.4x10^9}{4.3x10^-^2^5}$

$Kc=~1.49x10^+^3^4}$
