How many moles of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are present in a 100-g sample of ascorbic acid?

Y_Kistochka [10]

There are:

3.41 moles of C

4.54 moles of H

3.40 moles of O.

Why?

To solve the problem, the first thing that we need to do is to write the chemical formula of the ascorbic acid.

$C_{6}H_{8}O_{6}$

Now, we know that there are 100 grams of the compound, so, the masses of each element will represent the percent in the compound.

We have that:

$C_{6}=12.0107g*6=72.08g\\\\H_{8}=1.008g*8=8.064g\\\\O_{6}=15.999g*6=95.994g\\\\C_{6}H_{8}O_{6}=72.08g+8.064g+95.994g=176.138g$

To know the percent of each element, we need to to the following:

$C=\frac{72.08g}{176.138g}*100=0.409*100=40.92(percent)\\\\H=\frac{8.064g}{176.138g}*100=4.58(percent)\\\\O=\frac{95.994}{176.138g}*100=54.49(percent)$

So, we know that for the 100 grams of the compound, there are:

40.92 grams of C

4.58 grams of H

54.49 grams of O

We know the molecular masses of each element:

$C=12.0107\frac{g}{mol}\\\\H=1.008\frac{g}{mol}\\\\O=15.999\frac{g}{mol}{mol}$

Now, to calculate the number of moles of each element, we need to divide the mass of each element by the molecular mass of each element:

$C=\frac{40.92g}{12.010\frac{g}{mol}}=3.41mol\\\\H=\frac{4.58g}{1.008\frac{g}{mol}}=4.54mol\\\\O=\frac{54.49g}{15.999\frac{g}{mol}}=3.40mol$

Hence, we have that there are 3.41 moles of C, 4.54 moles of H, and 3.40 moles of O.

Have a nice day!

When water vapor changes to a liquid what is it called

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$hello \: your \: answer \: is \: here.$

Explanation:

<h2>Condensation is the change of water from its gaseous form (water vapor) into liquid water. Condensation generally occurs in the atmosphere when warm air rises, cools and looses its capacity to hold water vapor. As a result, excess water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets.</h2>

What volume of CH4(g), measured at 25oC and 745 Torr, must be burned in excess oxygen to release 1.00 x 106 kJ of heat to the su

anastassius [24]

Answer:

$V=27992L=28.00m^3$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the combustion of methane is shown below:

$CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O$

And has a heat of combustion of −890.8 kJ/mol, for which the burnt moles are:

$n_{CH_4}=\frac{-1.00x10^6kJ}{-890.8kJ/mol}= 1122.6molCH_4$

Whereas is consider the total released heat to the surroundings (negative as it is exiting heat) and the aforementioned heat of combustion. Then, by using the ideal gas equation, we are able to compute the volume at 25 °C (298K) and 745 torr (0.98 atm) that must be measured:

$PV=nRT\\\\V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{1122.6mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*298K}{0.98atm}\\\\V=27992L=28.00m^3$

Best regards.

What process is used to refine aluminum from its ore bauxite?

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

D. Smelting

Explanation:

Bauxite is the aluminum ore from which alumina, also known as aluminum oxide, Al₂O₃, is produced. Bauxite is extracted from the topsoil regions of some subtropical and tropical regions, and the Bayer process is primarily then used to produce alumina from the bauxite.

Aluminum is produced from the alumina by an aluminum smelting process known as the Hall—Heroult electrolytic process which involves the use of a carbon anode and direct current to produce aluminum by reducing the aluminum oxide
