You are given an unknown mixture containing NaCl and NaHCO3. When you carry out the heating exactly as described in part A, only

NaHCO3 decomposes. From the loss in mass, you can calculate the amount of NaHCO3 present in the mixture and its mass percent composition.
Here is your data. Incorporate it in your written procedure.

Experimental data Unknown (NaCl + NaHCO3)
Mass of crucible + cover 72.428 g
Mass of crucible + cover + mixture 74.80 g
Mass of crucible + cover + residue (1st heating) 74.25 g
Mass of crucible + cover + residue (2nd heating) 74.24 g
Mass of crucible + cover + residue (3rd heating) 74.24

From the data above, carry out your calculation for finding the mass of mixture, and mass of final solid remaining in the crucible. Using the knowledge that only loss of mass due to CO2 and H2O can be linked to the original mass of NaHCO3, calculate the mass of NaHCO3 and percent of NaHCO3 in the mixture.

Answer:

1.52g NaHCO3 were in the original mixture.

Mass percent: 64.1%

Explanation:

When NaHCO3 heats it descomposition occurs as follows:

2 NaHCO3(s) → Na2CO3(s) + CO2(g) + H2O(g).

The loss in mass is because of the evaporization of CO2 and H2O. As both are in the same porportion, its molar mass is the sum of both compounds (44g/mol + 18g/mol = 62g/mol)

Loss in mass: 74.80g - 74.24g = 0.56g.

In moles:

0.56g * (1mol / 62g) = 0.00903 moles of gas.

As 1 mole of the gases comes from 2 moles of NaHCO3:

<em>Moles NaHCO3:</em>

0.00903 moles of gas * (2 moles NaHCO3 / 1 mole gas) = 0.018 moles NaHCO3.

In grams (Molar mass NaHCO3: 84g/mol):

0.018 moles NaHCO3 * (84g / mol) = 1.52g NaHCO3 were in the original mixture.

The mass of the mixture was:

74.80g - 72.428g = 2.372g

That means mass percent of NaHCO3 is:

(1.52g /  2.372g) * 100 =  64.1%

Researchers tested a meteorite for organic molecules containing 13C and 15N, which are carbon and nitrogen atoms with one extra
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The correct option is  2.No, because only electrons are involved in bonding.

Explanation:

The type of bond formed by carbon and nitrogen (carbon-nitrogen bond) is covalent bond

Also known as molecular bond, a covalent bond involves the sharing of pairs of electrons (known as bonding pairs or shared pairs) between the carbon and nitrogen atoms forming stable, balanced forces in attraction and repulsion as they share common electrons in their compounds.

This electron sharing covalent bond is what enables the formation of the several compounds between carbon and nitrogen for example, in an amine, nitrogen which has five electrons, has two remaining electrons that forms a lone pair whereby it can combine further with other elements.

Hence the factor that influences the bonds to make the numerous organic molecules is the available electrons which constitutes the shared electron pairs in covalent bonds while the neutrons which function is to keep the repulsive forces of positively charged protons from ripping the nucleus apart.

How many degrees of unsaturation are lost or gained in the base-induced transformation from mito-ph to its photoactive ring-open
Fudgin [204]

Unsaturation (IHD) 2 hydrogen Needed

IHD = [(2n+2) -H]/2
(H: X=1, N=-1, O= zero)

Unsaturation:
Double bonds = 1
Rings = 1
Triple Bonds = 2

The degrees of unsaturation in a molecule are additive — a molecule with one double bond has one degree of unsaturation, a molecule with two double bonds has two degrees of unsaturation, and so forth.

What is reduction potential?​
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

A reduction potential measures the tendency of a molecule to be reduced by taking up new electrons. ... Standard reduction potentials can be useful in determining the directionality of a reaction. The reduction potential of a given species can be considered to be the negative of the oxidation potential.

A chemist adds of a calcium sulfate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has
Elanso [62]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

A chemist adds 0.85 L of a 0.0050M calcium sulfate to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to significant digits.

Answer: The mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has added to the flask is 0.58 g

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in L

moles of CaSO_4 = \frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{xg}{136g/mol}

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

0.0050=\frac{x}{136\times 0.85}

x=0.58 g

Therefore, the mass in grams of calcium sulfate the chemist has added to the flask is 0.58 g
