The solution is as follows:

K = [Partial pressure of isoborneol]/[Partial pressure of borneol] = 0.106

The molar mass of isoborneol/borneol is 154.25 g/mol

Mol isoborneol = 15 g/154.25 = 0.0972 mol
Mol borneol = 7.5 g/154.25 = 0.0486 mol

Use the ICE approach

        borneol  →  isoborneol
I         0.0972           0.0486
C         -x                     +x
E     0.0972 - x        0.0486 + x

Total moles = 0.1458

Using Raoult's Law,
Partial Pressure = Mole fraction*Total Pressure
[Partial pressure of isoborneol] = [(0.0972-x)/0.1458]*P
[Partial pressure of borneol] = [(0.0486+x/0.1458)]*P

0.106 = [(0.0972-x)/0.1458]*P/ [(0.0486+x/0.1458)]*P
Solving for x,
x = 0.0832 

Thus,
<em>Mol fraction of borneol = (0.0486+0.0832)/0.1458 = 0.904</em>
<em>Mol fraction of isoborneol = (0.0972-0.0832)/0.1458 = 0.096</em>

14) The central iodine atom in the ICl4- ion has __________ nonbonded electron pairs and __________ bonded electron pairs in its
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Two non bonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs

Explanation:

An image of the compound as obtained from chemlibretext is attached to this answer.

The ion ICl4- ion, is an AX4E2 ion. This implies that there are four bond pairs and two lone pairs of electrons. As expected, the shape of the ion is square planar since the lone pairs are found above and below the plane of the square. This is clear from the image attached.

(Yield Problem)
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Percent Yield Fe  =  82.5%

Explanation:

The actual yield is the value produced after an experiment is conducted. The theoretical yield is the value calculated using the balanced chemical equation and atomic/molar masses.

To find the percent yield of iron (Fe), you need to (1) convert grams Al to moles Al (via atomic mass), then (2) convert moles Al to moles Fe (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), then (3) convert moles Fe to grams Fe (via atomic mass), and then (4) calculate the percent yield. It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given values.

Atomic Mass (Mg): 24.305 g/mol

Atomic Mass (Fe): 55.845 g/mol

3 Mg + 2 FeCl₃ -----> 2 Fe + 3 MgCl₂

20.5 g Mg           1 mole              2 moles Fe            55.845 g
-----------------  x  -----------------  x  ----------------------  x  -----------------  =  
                           24.305 g           3 moles Mg             1 mole

=  31.4 g Fe

                                     Actual Yield
Percent Yield  =  ----------------------------------  x  100%
                                 Theoretical Yield

                               25.9 g Fe
Percent Yield  =  --------------------  x  100%
                               31.4 g Fe

Percent Yield  =  82.5%

4. The reaction of silver nitrate and potassium bromide yields silver bromide and potassium nitrate. If
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

1.) AgNO₃

2.) 0.563 moles AgBr

Explanation:

The limiting reagent is the reagent that is used up completely during a reaction. It can be identified by calculating which reactant produces the smallest amount of product. This can be done by determining the number of moles of each reagent (via molarity conversion). and then converting it to moles of the product (via mole-to-mole ratio).

AgNO₃ (aq) + KBr (aq) ---> AgBr (s) + KNO₃ (aq)

Molarity (M) = moles / liters

100 mL = 1 L

AgNO₃

45.0 mL / 100 = 45.0 L

1.25 M = ? moles / 0.450 L

? moles = 0.563 moles

KBr

75.0 mL / 100 = 0.750 L

0.800 M = ? moles / 0.750 L

? moles = 0.600 moles

In this case, there is no need to use the mole-to-mole ratio because all of the coefficients are one in the reaction (the amount of the limiting reagent used is the same amount of product produced). Since AgNO₃ produces the smaller amount of product, it is the limiting reagent.

Which of the following is an important application of hydrogen bonding
Andrews [41]

Hydrogen bonding is important because it is crucial to all life on Earth. Here are three reasons why hydrogen bonding is important. DNA has a double-helix structure because hydrogen bonds hold together the base pairs in the middle. Without hydrogen bonds, DNA would have to exist as a different structure.
