Answer:

The 99.68% of the aspirin is present in the neutral form

Explanation:

Aspirin, Acetylsalicylic acid, is a weak acid with pKa = 3.5

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

Where [A⁻] is the ionized form and HA the neutral form of the acid

Replacing with a pH of stomach of 1.0:

1.0 = 3.5 + log [A⁻] / [HA]

-2.5 = log [A⁻] / [HA]

3.16x10⁻³ = [A⁻] / [HA] (1)

A 100% of aspirin is = [A⁻] + [HA]

100 = [A⁻] + [HA] (2)

Replacing (2) in (1)

3.16x10⁻³ = 100 - [HA] / [HA]

3.16x10⁻³[HA] = 100 - [HA]

1.00316 [HA] = 100

[HA] = 99.68%

Scientist looking for new substances in plants grind up the plants with methanol. This solvent dissolves many plant compounds. H

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Crystals can be made from methanol by recrystallizing the plant extract from methanol.

The methanol/water system is heated rapidly using a hot plate and the plant extract dissolves in the heating solution until a clear solution is obtained.

The solution is now cooled rapidly. The interior of the flask used for the re crystallization may even by scratched to assist the quick formation of crystals. Large crystals of plant compounds may be obtained using this method. This process should be carried out in a fume hood because of the toxicity of methanol.

While in Europe, if you drive 109 km per day, how much money would you spend on gas in one week if gas costs 1.10 euros per lite

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The amount is $x = 113.3 \ dollars$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance traveled per day is $l = 109\ km = \frac{109}{1.609} = 67.74 \ mi$

The cost of one liter is $c = 1.10 \ euros/liter = 1.10 * 1.26 = 1.36 \ dollars/liter$

The car's gas mileage is $b = 22.0 \ mi/gal$

Generally the amount of distance covered in one week is evaluated as

$z = 67.74 * 7$

$z = 474.18 \ mi$

The amount of gas used in one week by the car is mathematically represented as

$k = \frac{ z}{ b}$

=> $k = \frac{ 474.18}{ 22}$

=> $k = 22 \ gal$

converting to liters

$k = 22 * 3.78541=83.28 \ liters$

Thus the amount spent on gas in one week is

$x = k * c$

=> $x = 83.28 * 1.36$

=> $x = 113.3 \ dollars$

Vanadium (II) oxide with Iron (III) oxide results in Vanadium (V) oxide and Iron (II) oxide. Balance this equation

evablogger [386]

Answer:

2VO + 3Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + 6FeO

Explanation:

The skeletal equation for the reaction is given below below:

VO + Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + FeO

We can balance the equation above by doing the following:

There are 2 atoms of V on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of VO as shown below:

2VO + Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + FeO

Now, we have a total of 5 atoms of O on the left and 6 atoms on the right side. We can balance it by putting 3 in front of Fe2O3 and 6 in front of FeO as shown below:

2VO + 3Fe2O3 —> V2O5 + 6FeO

Now, we can see that the equation is balanced

Which is the limiting reactant if we start with 30.0 g Al and 30.0 h O2

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The limiting reactant will be Al:

4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction.

Given parameters:

Mass of Al = 30g Molar mass = 27g/mol
