Lorico [155]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Protons have a much larger volume than neutrons.

Explanation:

Protons have a slightly smaller mass than neutrons.

Protons have a positive charge.

Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus.

Which of the following statements is true of the bonds in a water molecule?
Yuri [45]

Answer:

oxygen holds electrons more tightly than hydrogen does, and the net charge is zero.

Explanation:

The bonds in water are covalent in nature.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial negative.

Aspirin can be made in the laboratory by reacting acetic anhydride (C 4H 6O 3) with salicylic acid (C 7H 6O 3) to form aspirin (
Anastasy [175]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the aspirin is 77.5 %.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of acetic anhydride, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of acetic anhydride = 1.08 g/mL

Volume of acetic anhydride = 2.80 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.08g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of acetic anhydride}}{2.80mL}\\\\\text{Mass of acetic anhydride}=(1.08g/mL\times 2.80mL)=3.024g

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For acetic anhydride:</u>

Given mass of acetic anhydride = 3.024 g

Molar mass of acetic anhydride = 102.1 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of acetic anhydride}=\frac{3.024g}{102.1g/mol}=0.0296mol

  • <u>For salicylic acid:</u>

Given mass of salicylic acid = 1.24 g

Molar mass of salicylic acid = 138.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{1.24g}{138.12g/mol}=0.0089mol

The chemical equation for the combustion of hexane follows:

C_4H_6O_3+C_7H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_4O_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid reacts with 1 mole of acetic anhydride

So, 0.0089 moles of salicylic acid will react with = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0089=0.0089mol of acetic anhydride

As, given amount of acetic anhydride is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, salicylic acid is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid produces 1 mole of aspirin

So, 0.0089 moles of salicylic acid will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0089=0.0089moles of aspirin

Now, calculating the mass of aspirin from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of aspirin = 180.16 g/mol

Moles of aspirin = 0.0089 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.0089mol=\frac{\text{Mass of aspirin}}{180.16g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of aspirin}=(0.0089mol\times 180.16g/mol)=1.60g

  • To calculate the percentage yield of aspirin, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of aspirin = 1.24 g

Theoretical yield of aspirin = 1.60 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of aspirin}=\frac{1.24g}{1.60g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of aspirin}=77.5\%

Hence, the percent yield of the aspirin is 77.5 %.
