Answer:

0.0055 mol of N2O5 will remay after 7 min.

Explanation:

The reaction follows a first-order.

Let the concentration of N2O5 after 7 min be y

Rate = Ky = change in concentration of N2O5/time

K is rate constant = 6.82×10^-3 s^-1

Initial concentration of N2O5 = number of moles/volume = 2.1×10^-2/1.8 = 0.0117 M

Change in concentration = 0.0117 - y

Time = 7 min = 7×60 = 420 s

6.82×10^-3y = 0.0117 - y/420

0.0117 - y = 420×6.82×10^-3y

0.0117 - y = 2.8644y

0.0117 = 2.8644y + y

0.0117 = 3.8644y

y = 0.0117/3.8644 = 0.00303 M

Number of moles of N2O5 left = y × volume = 0.00303 × 1.8 = 0.0055 mol (to 2 significant digits)

Give structural formula of ethylene. What type of bond is found in between carbon and hydrogen? Why is the bond between carbon a

Sav [38]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The structure of ethylene is shown in the image attached. The two carbon atoms have a double covalent bond between them.

The two carbon atoms are sp2 hybridized. The bond between them is a covalent bond, there is one pi bond and one sigma bond between the carbon atoms. Between carbon and hydrogen, there are covalent bonds also. The covalent bonds are sigma bonds.

The pi bonds between carbon atoms is weaker than the sigma bonds between the carbon atoms. This is because, the side-by-side overlap the p orbitals in a pi bond is less effective than the end-to-end overlap of a sigma bond.

What are the electrons capable of Sharing accepting or donating called?

Oliga [24]

Substances have different tendencies to donate or accept electrons. When a really good donor meets a great acceptor, the chemical reaction releases a lot of energy. Oxygen (O2) is the best electron acceptor and is used in many aerobic reactions (reactions with oxygen). Hydrogen gas (H2) is a good electron donor.

When O2 and H2 are combined, along with a catalyst, water (H2O) is formed. This example of a redox reaction can be written like this:

A 3.82-g sample of magnesium nitride is reacted with 7.73 g of water. mg3n2 (s) + 3 h2o (â) â 2 nh3 (g) + 3 mgo (s) the yield of

horrorfan [7]

The reaction is properly written as

Mg₃N₂ (s) + 3 H₂O (l) --> 2 NH₃<span> (g) + 3 MgO (s)

Molar mass of Mg</span>₃N₂ = 100.95 g/mol
Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol
Molar mass of MgO = 40.3 g/mol

Moles Mg₃N₂: 3.82/100.95 = 0.0378
Moles H₂O: 7.73/18 = 0.429

Theo H₂O required for available Mg₃N₂: 0.0378*3/1 = 0.1134 mol
Hence, the limiting reactant is Mg₃N₂.
Thus,

Theoretical Yield = 0.0378 mol Mg₃N₂ * 3 mol MgO/Mg₃N₂ * 40.3 g/mol
Theo Yield = 4.57 g

Percent Yield = Actual Yield/Theo Yield * 100
Percent Yield = 3.60 g/4.57 g * 100 =<em> 78.77%</em>

What is the molarity of 122.5 g of AlCl3 in 1.0 L of solution? (MM = 133 g/mol)

yawa3891 [41]

Answer: Molarity is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution. So, find the moles of solute and divide by the liters of solution.
molar mass AlCl3 = 133g/mole
moles AlCl3 = 127 g x 1 mole/133 g = 0.955 moles
liters of solution = 400 ml x 1 liter/1000 ml = 0.400 liters
Molarity = 0.955 moles/0.400 liters = 2.39 M

The equation for the combustion of CH4 (the main component of natural gas) is

Lera25 [3.4K]

Heat produced = -13588.956 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The reaction of combustion of Methane

CH4(g)+2O2(g)→CO2(g)+2H2O(g) ΔH∘rxn=−802.3kJ

271 g of CH4

Required

Heat produced

Solution

mol of 271 g CH₄ (MW=16 g/mol0

mol = mass : MW

mol = 271 : 16

mol = 16.9375

So Heat produced :

= mol x ΔH°rxn

= 16.9375 mol x −802.3kJ/mol = -13588.956 kJ
