Answer:

\frac{12}{46}\times100

Explanation:

Molecular mass of methanoic acid (HCOOH) = 2*1 + 1*12 + 2*16

                                                                              =46 grams

mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1  g

mass of 1 mole carbon atom = 12 g

mass of 1 mole of oxygen atom = 16 g

mass of 1 mole of HCOOH = 46 g

1 mole of HCOOH molecule contains 1 mole of carbon atoms

means in 46 g of HCOOH there is 12 g of carbon atoms.

Percentage of carbon in methanoic acid = \frac{12}{46}\times100

The reaction of ethyl acetate with sodium hydroxide, CH3COOC2H5(aq)+NaOH(aq)⇌CH3COONa(aq)+C2H5OH(aq) is first order in CH3COOC2H
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

so the reaction rate increases by a factor 6.

Explanation:

For the given equation the reaction is first order with respect to both ester and sodium hydroxide

So we can say that the rate law is

Rate(initial)=K[NaOH][CH_{3}COOC_{2}H_{5}]

now as per given conditions the concentration of ester is increased by half it means that the new concentration is 1.5 times of old concentration

The concentration of NaOH is quadrupled means the new concentration is 4 times of old concentration.

The new rate law is

Rate(final)=K[1.5XNaOH][4XCH_{3}COOC_{2}H_{5}]

the final rate = 6 X initial rate

so the reaction rate increases by a factor 6.

The precipitative gravimetric analysis finds applications in environmental chemistry for precipitation of sulfates from wastewat
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Barium precipitation : in this method we will add Barium chloride to the wastewater to precipitate Barium sulphate  precipitate from the waste water

Explanation:

The measures that can be taken for the recovery of sulfates and other contaminants from wastewater includes : ion exchange, precipitation and Reverse osmosis. of all these measures i will discuss precipitation

Precipitation measures can be performed using different methodologies the methodology that i will discuss is :

Barium precipitation : in this method we will add Barium chloride to the wastewater to precipitate Barium sulphate  precipitate from the waste water

The sulphate contained in the wastewater can be reduced to as low as 200 mg/l using this method

Temperature : the increase in temperature of the waste water will cause the reduction in formation of sulphate in the waste water

PH changes : for the precipitation of sulphate to be effective the required PH level  is 4.5

When two plates with continental crust converge, why are neither of them subducted
Vikentia [17]

Neither plate subducts because the crust have approximately the same density. Instead, the rocks are smashed together causing them to recrystallize due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates.

How many grams of argon would it take to fill a large light bulb with a volume of 0.745 L at STP?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Mass = 1.33 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of argon required = ?

Volume of bulb = 0.745 L

Temperature and pressure = standard

Solution:

We will calculate the number of moles of argon first.

Formula:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

By putting values,

1 atm ×0.745 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K× 273.15 K

0.745 atm. L = n × 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 0.745 atm. L / 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 0.0332 mol

Mass of argon:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.0332 mol × 39.95 g/mol

Mass = 1.33 g
