Answer : The mass of calcium oxide produced is, 2632 g

Solution : Given,

Mass of calcium carbonate = 4.7 Kg = 4700 g      (1 Kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100 g/mole

Molar mass of calcium oxide = 56 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of calcium carbonate.

\text{Moles of }CaCO_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }CaCO_3}{\text{Molar mass of }CaCO_3}=\frac{4700g}{100g/mole}=47moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of calcium oxide.

The balanced decomposition reaction will be,

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

From the balanced reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of calcium carbonate decompose to give 1 mole of calcium oxide

So, 47 moles of calcium carbonate decompose to give 47 moles of calcium oxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of calcium oxide.

\text{Mass of }CaO=\text{Moles of }CaO\times \text{Molar mass of }CaO

\text{Mass of }CaO=(47moles)\times (56g/mole)=2632g

Therefore, the mass of calcium oxide produced is, 2632 g

This may help you

First write and balance the equation, being: CaCO3 - CaO + CO2 Then, using the periodic table, find the molecular masses of CaCO3 and of CaO, finding their ratio. That will be 100g:56g or 0.1kg:0.056kg. Since you have 4.7kg of CaCO3, it corresponds to Xkg of CaO. Making x the subject, it should be X= 4.7*0.056/100=0,002632

Determine if each of the following statements about chiral molecules is True or False and select the best answer from the dropdo
oee [108]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

-)<u> True or False: All R stereocenters are dextrorotatory. </u>

The absolute configuration is based is in specific rules that are not related to the ability to deflect polarized light. <u>FALSE</u>

-)<u> True or False: Chiral centers in organic molecules will have 4 different groups attached to a carbon. </u>

<u />

A chiral carbon by definition is a carbon with 4 groups. <u>TRUE</u>

-)<u> True or False: A racemic mixture has an optical activity of 0. </u>

In a racemic mixture, we have equal amounts of enantiomers, and this cancels out the optical activity. <u>TRUE</u>

-)<u> True or False: Normal linear amines can be chiral centers. </u>

<u />

In primary amines, we have 2 hydrogens. Therefore all the groups can not be different. So, is <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: Compound C has an optical activity of 0. </u>

<u />

We need to know the structure of the compound

<u />

-)<u>True or False: If the R isomer of a molecule has an optical rotation of + 25.7 degree then the S isomer of the molecule will have an optical rotation of -25.7 degree. </u>

<u />

If we have the exact opposite (as we have in this case) the magnitud of the optical activity value will remain and the sign will change. <u>TRUE</u>

-)<u>True or False: A CN is a higher priority than a CH2OH. </u>

<u />

In this case, a carbon is directly bonded to the chiral carbon. The carbon on CN is bonded to a nitrogen atom and the carbon on CH2OH is bonded to an oxygen. So, the CH2OH will have more priority because O has a higher atomic number. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: All molecules with chiral centers are optically active. </u>

<u />

We can have for example mesocompounds in which the optical activity is canceled out due to symmetry planes. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: To have an enantiomer a molecule must have at least two chiral centers. </u>

<u />

A pair of enantiomers is made between at least 1 chiral carbon. Enantiomer R and enantiomer S. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: Chiral molecules are always optically active. </u>

<u />

We can have racemic mixtures or mesocompounds with chiral carbons but without optical activity. <u>FALSE</u>

<u />

-)<u>True or False: A CH2CH2Br is higher priority than a CH2F. </u>

The "Br" atom is bonded in the third carbon (respect to the chiral carbon) and the "F" atom is bonded to the second carbon. Therefore CH2F has more priority than CH2CH2Br. <u>FALSE</u>

-)<u>True or False: Meso molecules with two stereocenters have a R,S configuration. </u>

<u />

On the compounds with R and S configuration at the same time can have symmetry planes so, we will not have optical activity. <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

<u>True or False: Diastereomers have the same physical properties except in a chiral environment. </u>

<u />

All diastereomers have the same physical properties. <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

<u>True or False: Compound H has an optical activity of 0. </u>

<u />

We have to have the structure of the compound.

<u />

<u>True or False: A C=C double bond is higher priority than a -CH(CH3)2.</u>

<u />

In the case of C=C, we can say that is equivalent to two carbon bonds without hydrogens. Therefore C=C has higher priority. <u>TRUE</u>

<u />

Explain how astronomers use spectrographs to identify the composition of a star.
Gwar [14]
Each element absorbs light at specific wavelengths unique to that atom. When astronomers look at an object's spectrum, they can determine its composition based on these wavelengths. The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy.
hope this helps you! :-)

Arrange the following molecules according to the strength of their dispersion forces. Organize in order from largest to smallest
ki77a [65]

Explanation:

The weak intermolecular forces which can arise either between nucleus and electrons or between electron-electron are known as dispersion forces. These forces are also known as London dispersion forces and these are temporary in nature.

Therefore, more is the surface area occupied by the carbon chain more will be the dispersion forces present in it. Hence, less is the surface area occupied by a molecule less will be the dispersion forces present in it.  

Hence, the given molecules are organized from largest to smallest dispersion forces as follows.

CH_{3}CH(CH_{3})C(CH_{3})_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}(CH_{2})_{4}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH_{3}C(CH_{3})2CH_{3} > CH_{3}CH_{2}CH_{3} > CH4
