Answer:

0.161 moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Fe  = 18g

Unknown:

Number of moles of Fe₂O₃  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we have to work from the known to the unknown specie.

One cogent point we need to take from this problem is that oxygen gas is in excess. The Fe reacting is therefore the limiting reactant which implies that it will determine the extent of the reaction.

Now, the known specie is Fe;

  The balanced reaction equation is shown below;

                  4Fe    +   3O₂      →    2Fe₂O₃

Proceed to find the number of moles of Fe given;

        Number of moles of Fe = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

                  Molar mass of Fe  = 56g/mol

        Number of moles of Fe  = \frac{18}{56}   =  0.32mole

From the balanced reaction equation;

            4 moles of Fe produced 2 moles of Fe₂O₃

          0.32 moles of Fe will produce \frac{0.32 x 2}{4}    = 0.161 moles of  Fe₂O₃

Suppose you have just added 100 ml of a solution containing 0.5 mol of acetic acid per liter to 400 ml of 0.5 m naoh. what is th
Tpy6a [65]

pH = 13.5

Explanation:

Sodium hydroxide completely ionizes in water to produce sodium ions and hydroxide ions. Hydroxide ions are in excess and neutralize all acetic acid added by the following ionic equation:

\text{HAc} + \text{OH}^{-} \to \text{Ac}^{-} + \text{H}_2\text{O}

The mixture would contain

  • 0.4 \times 0.5 - 0.1 \times 0.5 = 0.15 \; \text{mol} of \text{OH}^{-} and
  • 0.1 \times 0.5 = 0.05 \; \text{mol} of \text{Ac}^{-}

if \text{Ac}^{-} undergoes no hydrolysis; the solution is of volume 0.1 + 0.4 = 0.5 \; \text{L} after the mixing. The two species would thus be of concentration 0.30 \; \text{mol} \cdot \text{L}^{-1} and 0.10 \; \text{mol} \cdot \text{L}^{-1}, respectively.

Construct a RICE table for the hydrolysis of \text{Ac}^{-} under a basic aqueous environment (with a negligible hydronium concentration.)

\begin{array}{cccccccc} \text{R} & \text{Ac}^{-}(aq) &+ & \text{H}_2\text{O}(aq) & \leftrightharpoons & \text{HAc}(aq) & + & \text{OH}^{-} (aq)\\ \text{I} & 0.10 \; \text{M} & & & & & &0.30 \; \text{M}\\ \text{C} & -x \; \text{M}& & & & +x \; \text{M}& & +x \; \text{M} \\ \text{E} & (0.10 - x) \; \text{M} & & & & x \; \text{M} & & (0.30 +x) \; \text{M} \end{array}

The question supplied the <em>acid</em> dissociation constant pK_afor acetic acid \text{HAc}; however, calculating the hydrolysis equilibrium taking place in this basic mixture requires the <em>base</em> dissociation constant pK_b for its conjugate base, \text{Ac}^{-}. The following relationship relates the two quantities:

pK_{b} (\text{Ac}^{-}) = pK_{w} - pK_{a}( \text{HAc})

... where the water self-ionization constant pK_w \approx 14 under standard conditions. Thus pK_{b} (\text{Ac}^{-}) = 14 - 4.7 = 9.3. By the definition of pK_b:

[\text{HAc} (aq)] \cdot [\text{OH}^{-} (aq)] / [\text{Ac}^{-} (aq) ] = K_b =  10^{-pK_{b}}

x \cdot (0.3 + x) / (0.1 - x) = 10^{-9.3}

x = 1.67 \times 10^{-10} \; \text{M} \approx 0 \; \text{M}

[\text{OH}^{-}] = 0.30 +x \approx 0.30 \; \text{M}

pH = pK_{w} - pOH = 14 + \text{log}_{10}[\text{OH}^{-}] = 14 + \text{log}_{10}{0.30} = 13.5

mixer [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The primary structure of a protein refer to the amino acid sequence. The secondary structure of a protein refer to the alpha helices, beta sheets and turns, while the tertiary structure refer to folding of the sheets due to hydrogen bonding or other bonding interaction between them.

If a neutral compound is composed of carbon and hydrogen and you know that it has exactly 2 carbons connected by a double bond,
Oksanka [162]

Answer: 4 hydrogens

Explanation:

This is what the structure will look like C=C. Remember that it's important that all structures have a complete octet. As it looks right now each carbon is sharing 4 valence electrons so each needs 2 more bonds to hydrogen complete its octet.
