Keri has to identify a mysterious brown liquid in science class. She pours it through a filter, but the substance looks the same

. Then she heats the substance and collects the water that evaporates. The water droplets look the same as the original substance. Keri concludes that since the substance cannot be separated it must be a compound. Is Keri correct?

Answer is: No, because the substance could be an element.

Pure substance is made of only one type of atom (element) or only one type of molecule, it has definite and constant composition with distinct chemical properties.

Pure substances can be separated chemically, not physically, that is difference between pure substances and mixtures.

Elements (for example copper, iron, sulfur) and compounds (water, sodium chloride) have definite and constant composition with distinct chemical properties.

The answer is NO. It can not be a compound it is an element.

In a component mixture it can be separated physically way from the other.

In element it can be only separated by a way of destroying the compound itself by chemical reaction.

How many moles are there in 990 grams of sugar, C12H22011? (Sig Figs, do not
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Number of moles = 2.89 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of sugar  = ?

Mass of sugar = 990 g

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁:

12× 12 + 22×1.008 + 16×11 = 342.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 990 g / 342.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.89 mol

A mixture of A and B is capable of being ignited only if the mole percent of A is 6 %. A mixture containing 9.0 mole% A in B flo
atroni [7]

Explanation:

As it is given that mixture (contains 9 mol % A and 91% B) and it is flowing at a rate of 800 kg/h.

Hence, calculate the molecular weight of the mixture as follows.

             Weight = 0.09 \times 16.04 + 0.91 \times 29

                          = 27.8336 g/mol

And, molar flow rate of air and mixture is calculated as follows.

                    \frac{800}{27.8336}

                     = 28.74 kmol/hr

Now, applying component balance as follows.

                0.09 \times 28.74 + 0 \times F_{B} = 0.06F_{p}

                   F_{p} = 43.11 kmol/hr

                   F_{A} + F_{B} = F_{p}

                          F_{B} = 43.11 - 28.74

                                      = 14.37 kmol/hr

So, mass flow rate of pure (B), is F_{B} = 14.37 \times 29

                                                    = 416.73 kg/hr

According to the product stream, 6 mol% A and 94 mol% B is there.

             Molecular weight of product stream = Mol. weight \times 43.11 kmol/hr

                                  = 0.06 \times 16.04 + 0.94 \times 29

                                  = 28.22 g/mol

Mass of product stream = 1216.67 kg/hr

Hence, mole of O_{2} into the product stream is as follows.

                    0.21 \times 0.94 \times 43.11

                      = 8.5099 kmol/hr \times 329 g/mol

                      = 272.31 kg/hr

Therefore, calculate the mass % of O_{2} into the stream as follows.

                 \frac{272.31}{1216.67} \times 100

                     = 22.38%

Thus, we can conclude that the required flow rate of B is 272.31 kg/hr and the percent by mass of O_{2} in the product gas is 22.38%.

Question:<br> What is the molar concentration of 1.29 mol of KCL dissolved in 350 mL of solution?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

M = 3.69 M.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the molar concentration of the 1.29 moles of KCl in 350 mL of solution by recalling the mathematical definition of molarity as the division of the moles by the volume in liters, in this case 0.350 L; thus, we proceed as follows:

M=\frac{1.29mol}{0.350L}\\\\M=3.69M

Which gives molar units, M, or just mol/L.

Regards!

If a sample of carbon monoxide is at 57 degreees celsius and under 67.88 kPa of pressure and takes up 85.3 L of space how many m
Goryan [66]
57 degrees celcius is equal to 330 degrees kelvin
67.88 kPa is equal to 67880 Pa
85.3 liters is equal to 0.0853 m^3

Now, the equation we will use to solve this question is:
PV = nRT where:
P is the pressure of gas = 67880 Pa
V is the volume of gas = 0.0853 m^3
n is the number of moles we are looking for
R is the gas constant = 8.31441 J K-1<span> mol</span><span>-1
T is the temperature of gas = 330 degrees kelvin

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get n as follows:
n = (PV) / (RT)
n = (67880*0.0853) / (8.31441*330)
n = 2.11 moles</span>

How many moles are in 17.31 g of NaHCO,?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

0.33moles

Explanation:

RAM of;

Na = 23, H=1, C=12, O=16

molar mass of NaHCO= 23+1+12+16= 52g/mol

mole= mass / molar mass

mole = 17.31/52

mole= 0.33moles
