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.

A nurse practitioner prepares an injection of promethazine, an antihistamine used to treat allergic rhinitis. If the stock bottl
kherson [118]

The correct answer is 0.44ml

For information, promethazine is a neuroleptic antihistamine inhibitor of H1 receptors of the phenothiazine family. It is a medicine used in the treatment of allergy (like rhinitis) and transient insomnia.

To respond to this exercise, it is necessary to cross-multiply.

In the antihistamine bottle solution:

25 mg corresponds to 1 ml

11 mg corresponds to: 11/25 = 0.44 ml of the solution.

This 0.44ml is taken from the bottle and put to the syringe.

Aluminum and oxygen react according to the following equation: 4Al(s) 3O2(g) --> 2Al2O3(s) What mass of Al2O3, in grams, can
algol [13]

Answer:

8.66 g of Al₂O₃ will be produced

Explanation:

4Al (s) + 3O₂ (g)  → 2Al₂O₃ (s)

This is the reaction.

Problem statement says, that the O₂ is in excess, so the limiting reactant is the Al. Let's determine the moles we used.

4.6 g / 26.98 g/mol = 0.170 moles

Ratio is 4:2.

4 moles of aluminum can produce 2 moles of Al₂O₃

0.170 moles of Al, may produce (0.170  .2)/ 4 = 0.085 moles

Let's convert the moles of Al₂O₃ to mass.

0.085 mol . 101.96 g/mol = 8.66 g

Plz help!<br><br> What needs to be added or taken away to cause a change in state?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

One change of state happens when you add energy to the substance. This change of state is called melting. By adding energy to the molecules in a solid the molecules begin to move quicker and can break away from the other molecules.

Is sponge cake a heterogeneous mixture
maxonik [38]

Answer:

though many may argue that cake batter is a homogeneous mixture because of its observable uniformity, we know it is heterogeneous. ... In other words, the mixture of ingredients from cake batter results in some chemical reactions here and there, but we are still left with a mixture of things that can be separated.
