Justify why you can or cannot make a compound out of 6 hydrogen atoms and 2.5 carbon atoms.

Answer:

Stoichiometric compounds are composed of whole number ratios of constituent atoms.

Explanation:

In accordance with Dalton's law, when atoms combine to form compounds, they do so in simple whole number ratios.

Hydrocarbons compounds are compounds of hydrogen and carbon. The hydrogen and carbon usually combine in simple whole number ratios. The ratio of hydrogen atoms to carbon atoms in organic compounds is never fractional.

Combination of 6 hydrogen atoms and 2.5 carbon atoms do not represent simple whole number ratio of combination of constituent atoms hence it is not possible to make such a compound. There can never be a hydrocarbon containing the said ratio of hydrogen to carbon atoms.

Draw the structure of a compound of molecular formula C4H8O that has a signal in its 13C NMR spectrum at ≥ 160 ppm. Then draw th
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

1. Butyraldehyde; 2. but-3-en-1-ol

Explanation:

1. Peak ≥ 160 ppm

The formula C₄H₈O shows that the Index of Hydrogen Deficiency = 1.

It could be caused by either a ring or a double bond.

A peak at ≥ 160 ppm strongly indicates a C=O group, so the rest of the molecule can contain no rings or double bonds.

There are no other heteroatoms, so the compound most be an aldehyde or a ketone.

One compound that meets these criteria is butyraldehyde, CH₃CH₂CH₂CH=O (see Fig. 1.)

2. No rings; all peaks < 160 ppm

If all peaks are < 160 ppm, there can no C=O group.

There is no ring, so there must be a C=C double bond.

There is no other unsaturation, so the O atom must be present as an alcohol or an ether.

One compound that meets these criteria is but-3-en-1-ol, CH₂=CHCH₂CH₂OH (see Fig. 2).

I’m lost for this question
Natasha2012 [34]
An element is all the same thing. Pure, if you will. 

The first one is definitely an element. The second would be a compound (it's atoms are different colors). I would say the last one is an element, since it has ll the same color of atoms. 

I hope this helped you! If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask me.

3. Suppose you had titrated your vinegar sample with barium hydroxide instead of sodium hydroxide:
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

39.6 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced neutralization reaction

Ba(OH)₂(aq) + 2 CH₃COOH(aq) ⟶ Ba(CH₃COO)₂(aq) + 2 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 2.78 g of CH₃COOH

The molar mass of CH₃COOH is 60.05 g/mol.

2.78 g × 1 mol/60.05 g = 0.0463 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of Ba(OH)₂ needed to react with 0.0463 moles of CH₃COOH

The molar ratio of Ba(OH)₂ to CH₃COOH is 1:2. The moles of Ba(OH)₂ needed are 1/2 × 0.0463 mol = 0.0232 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the volume of 0.586 M solution that contains 0.0232 moles of Ba(OH)₂

0.0232 mol × 1 L/0.586 mol = 0.0396 L = 39.6 mL

Round off or add zeros to the following calculated answers to give a final answer with three significant figures
sesenic [268]
In this case, 58.703 has five significant figures because the 3 at the end is significant and therefore makes the 0 significant as well. Since there are 5 significant figures, we need to round off the 7 to get 58.7, which has three significant figures.

Hope this helps.
