Answer:

5.3%

Explanation:

Let the volume be 1 L

volume , V = 1 L

use:

number of mol,

n = Molarity * Volume

= 0.8846*1

= 0.8846 mol

Molar mass of CH3COOH,

MM = 2*MM(C) + 4*MM(H) + 2*MM(O)

= 2*12.01 + 4*1.008 + 2*16.0

= 60.052 g/mol

use:

mass of CH3COOH,

m = number of mol * molar mass

= 0.8846 mol * 60.05 g/mol

= 53.12 g

volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 mL

density of solution = 1.00 g/mL

Use:

mass of solution = density * volume

= 1.00 g/mL * 1000 mL

= 1000 g

Now use:

mass % of acetic acid = mass of acetic acid * 100 / mass of solution

= 53.12 * 100 / 1000

= 5.312 %

≅ 5.3%

The lighter components are able to rise higher in the column before they are cooled to their condensing temperature, allowing them to be removed at slightly higher levels.

Which contains the greatest mass of oxygen: 0.75 moles of ethanol ( C2H5OH ), 0.60 mole of formic acid ( HCO2H ), or 1.0 mole of
Luda [366]

Answer:

In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O

Explanation:

Let's make some rules of three, to solve this problem:

1 mol of ethanol has 2 moles of C, 6 moles of H, and 1 mol of oxygen

Therefore, 0.75 moles of ethanol must have 0.75 mol of oyxgen

Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.75 mol . 16 g/ 1 mol = 12 g

1 mol of formic acid has 2 moles of H, 1 mol of C and 2 mol of oxygen

0.60 moles of formic acid must have  (0.6 .2) / 1 = 1.2 mol of O

If we convert the amount to mass → 1.2 mol . 16 g/ 1mol = 19.2 g

1 mol of water has 1 mol of oyxgen

Therefore, we have 1 mol of oxygen with a mass of 16 g.

In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O
