Answer:

%isotope 1 = 68.92%

%isotope 2 = 31.08 %

Explanation:

we have the following data:

misotope 1 = 62.9296 u

misotope 2 = 64.9278 u

maverage = 63.55 u

%isotope 1 = X

%isotope 2 = 100-X

the average atomic mass is equal to:

maverage = [(misotope 1x%isotope 1)+(misotope 2x%isotope 2)/100]

substituting values:

63.55 = [(62.9296 x X)+(64.9272 x (100-X))]/100

clearing the X:

X = 68.92

therefore we have to:

%isotope 1 = 68.92%

%isotope 2 = 100-68.92 = 31.08 %

Limestone (CaCO3) is decomposed by heating to quicklime (CaO) and carbon dioxide. Calculate how many grams of quicklime can be p
Harman [31]

Answer: 2800 g

Explanation:

CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 5 kg = 5000 g

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{5000g}{100g/mol}=50moles

1 mole of CaCO_3 produces = 1 mole of CaO

50 moles of CaCO_3 produces =\frac{1}{1}\times 50=50moles of CaO

Mass of CaO=moles\times {\text{Molar mass}}=50moles\times 56g/mole=2800g

2800 g of CaO is produced from 5.0 kg of limestone.

What are the H-bonds in Fentanyl, and is it souluable in water please explain yes or no.
Margarita [4]

Fentanyl is an opoid used for the pain medication together with other medications for anesthesia. It is illegally used as recreation drug as it is mixed with heroine and cocaine. The side effects of this fentanyl include vomiting, constipation, sedation, decreased breathing, hallucinations etc. Fentanyl does not have any hydrogen bonds instead it has nitrogen bonds associated with benzene ring. It does not form molecules within its molecules but forms hydrogen bonds with the water molecule. The nitrogen and the oxygen present forms bonds with the hydrogen of the water molecule. As it forms hydrogen bonds with water it is soluble in water.

Consider the following reaction: CH3OH(g)⇌CO(g)+2H2(g) Part A Calculate ΔG for this reaction at 25 ∘C under the following condit
kati45 [8]

<u>Answer:</u> The \Delta G of the reaction at given temperature is -12.964 kJ/mol.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given chemical reaction:

CH_3OH(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+2H_2(g)

The expression of K_p for the given reaction:

K_p=\frac{(p_{CO})\times (p_{H_2}^2)}{p_{CH_3OH}}

We are given:

p_{CO}=0.140atm\\p_{H_2}=0.180atm\\p_{CH_3OH}=0.850atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=\frac{(0.140)\times (0.180)^2}{0.850}\\\\K_p=5.34\times 10^{-3}

To calculate the Gibbs free energy of the reaction, we use the equation:

\Delta G=\Delta G^o+RT\ln K_p

where,

\Delta G = Gibbs' free energy of the reaction = ?

\Delta G^o = Standard gibbs' free energy change of the reaction = 0 J (at equilibrium)

R = Gas constant = 8.314J/K mol

T = Temperature = 25^oC=[25+273]K=298K

K_p = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 5.34\times 10^{-3}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta G=0+(8.314J/K.mol\times 298K\times \ln(5.34\times 10^{-3}))\\\\\Delta G=-12963.96J/mol=-12.964kJ/mol

Hence, the \Delta G of the reaction at given temperature is -12.964 kJ/mol.
