What is the total number of pairs of electrons shared between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom in a molecule of methanal?

valentinak56 [21]

Answer is: between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom in a molecule of methanal there are two (2) pairs of electrons.

Methanal or formaldehyde (H₂C=O) is the simplest of the aldehydes.
In methanal, bond between carbon and oxygen is double covalent bond (one sigma and one pi bond), which means there are four shared electrons or two pair of electrons.

A mixture of methanol and methyl acetate contains 15.0 wt% methanol.

Usimov [2.4K]

The mixture flow rate in lbm/h = 117.65 lbm/h

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

15.0 wt% methanol

The flow rate of the methyl acetate :100 lbm/h

Required

the mixture flow rate in lbm/h

Solution

mass of methanol(CH₃OH, Mw= 32 kg/kmol) in mixture :

$\tt 15\%\times 200~kg=30~kg\\\\mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}=\dfrac{30~kg}{32~kg/kmol}=0.9375~kmol$

mass of the methyl acetate(C₃H₆O₂,MW=74 kg/kmol,85% wt) in 200 kg :

$\tt 85\%\times 200=170~kg\\\\mol=\dfrac{170}{74}=2.297~kmol$

Flow rate of the methyl acetate in the mixture is to be 100 lbm/h.

1 kg mixture = 0.85 .methyl acetate

So flow rate for mixture :

$\tt \dfrac{1~kg~mixture}{0.85~methyl~acetat}\times 100~lbm/h=117.65~lbm/h$

Consider a voltaic cell where the anode half-reaction is Zn(s) → Zn2+(aq) + 2 e− and the cathode half-reaction is Sn2+(aq) + 2 e

notsponge [240]

Answer: The concentration of $Sn^{2+}$ in the cell is $9.0\times 10^{-3}M$

Explanation:

We are given:

Oxidation half reaction: $Zn(s)\rightarrow Zn^{2+}(aq.)+2e^-$ $E^o_{Zn^{2+}/Zn}=-0.76V$

Reduction half reaction: $Sn^{2+}(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow Sn(s)$ $E^o_{Sn^{2+}/Sn}=-0.136V$

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, fluorine will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.
