A compound is formed when 171.2 g of carbon reacts with 28.8 g of hydrogen. What is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound

Chemistry

IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago

Following the law of conservation of mass, the mass percent of hydrogen in the resulting compound is 14.4%(wt/wt). This is assuming that all of the carbon reacts with all of the hydrogen. The solution is as follows:

mass % = mass hydrogen*100/total mass = 28.8*100/(28.8+171.2) = 14.4%

Why is there not a corresponding drop in ionization energies between Bi and Po in the sixth period as N and O?
Stels [109]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to the Journal of Chemical Education, Volume 80, No.8 (2003); "The first ionization energy of bismuth appears to be  anomalous......It has been claimed that spin– orbit coupling by the Russell–Saunders scheme would lower  the ground state of Bi+ ..."

However, the involvement of  d and f orbitals in Bi and Po implies that the outermost orbitals are poorly screened hence the drop between nitrogen and oxygen is not observed between Bi and Po.

The same argument could be extended to explain the reason why  there not a corresponding drop between Ba and Tl is the sixth period even though they are in the same group as Be and B.

1What is ""Fremy's salt""? Write the molecular formula of Fremy's salt. Write the structure of the product obtained from phenol.
EastWind [94]

Answer and Explanation:

The Fremy salt is a chemical compound its chemical name is disodium nitrosodisuphonate

The molecular formula of the Fremy salt is K_2NO(SO_3)_2

When phenol is treated with Fremy salt in presence of water then benzoquinone is formed

C_2H_5OH\rightarrow C_6H_4O_2 ( in presence of Fremy salt and water)
