Answer:

0.54 mole

Explanation:

                                     CH3COOH    CH3CH2OH   CH3COOCH2CH3    H2O​

Initial concentration   1.0 mole         1.0 mole                0 mole                  1.0mol

Change                          - x                   - x                      + x                          + x  

Equilibrium                   (1.0 - x)          (1.0 - x)                   x                       (1.0 + x)

K = [CH3COOCH2CH3]*[H2O​]/[CH3COOH]*[CH3CH2OH]

x*(1.0+x)/(1.0-x)(1.0-x) = 4.0

x+x²=4*(1-x)²

x+x² = 4(1² - 2x + x²)

x + x² = 4 - 8x + 4x²

4 - 8x + 4x²- x² - x= 0

3x² - 9x + 4 = 0

x=2.5 , x=0.54

2.5 mole of acid cannot be esterified, because there is only 1.0 mole of acid,

so answer is 0.54 mole.

Given 16.2 grams of substance Y, if the substance absorbs 2722 joules of energy and the specific heat of the substance is 9.22 J
snow_tiger [21]
Since the substance absorbs heat, it is expected that the temperature will rise. The formula for the internal energy of a substance is given by the equation:

ΔU = mCpΔT

where:

ΔU = internal energy
m = mass of substance
Cp = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature

ΔU = 2722 Joules = 16.2 grams (9.22 J/g-°C) (Tf - 26°C)

This gives a final temperature of Tf = 44.22 °C

Which of the following is true about a carbonated soft drink?
Makovka662 [10]
I would say the water is the solvent and carbon dioxide is the solute. Carbon dioxide is usually introduced to water under pressure and then sealed. Once the cap is removed, the carbon dioxide starts to escape since it is then under low pressure. Sometimes, natural groundwater has dissolved carbon dioxide in it but most of our soft drinks have it artificially introduced. Water plus carbon dioxide also form carbonic acid and this can give the tingly sensation on the tongue when drinking soft drinks.
