Answer:

Explanation:

Polar molecules interact with other molecules of similar polarity to form solutions. Non-polar molecules do not interact the same way.

Answer:

The scientists predict the polarity of molecules and the distribution of non polar and polar molecules by finding out the net dipole moment of the molecular structure.

Explanation:

The net value of dipole moment is found out with the help of finding the bond angle between the atoms of the given molecule along with the distance between the atoms and the charge on the atoms of the molecule.

This will be applied in the appropriate formula which tells whether the molecule is polar or non polar.

A mixture containing 20 mole % butane, 35 mole % pentane and rest

notka56 [123]

Answer:

2.5 % butane, 42.2 % pentane and 55.3 % hexane

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the mass balance for each substance is given by:

$Butane:z_bF=y_bD+x_bB\\\\Pentane: z_pF=y_pD+x_pB\\\\Hexane: z_hF=y_hD+x_hB$

Whereas $y$ accounts for the fractions at the outlet distillate and $x$ for the fractions at the outlet bottoms. Moreover, with the 90 % recovery of butane, we can write:

$0.9=\frac{y_bD}{z_bF}$

So we can compute the product of the molar fraction of butane at the distillate by total distillate flow by assuming a 100-mol feed:

$y_bD=0.9*z_bF=0.9*0.2*100mol=18mol$

The total distillate flow:

$y_bD=18mol\\\\D=\frac{18mol}{0.95} =18.95mol$

And the total bottoms flow:

$F=D+B\\\\B=F-D=100mol-18.95mol=81.05mol$

Next, by using the mass balance of butane, we compute the molar fraction of butane at the bottoms:

$x_b=\frac{z_bF-y_bD}{B} =\frac{0.2*100mol-18mol}{81.05} =0.025$

Then, the molar fraction of pentane and hexane:

$x_p=\frac{z_pF-y_pD}{B} =\frac{0.35*100mol-0.04*18.95mol}{81.05} =0.422$

$x_h=\frac{z_hF-y_hD}{B} =\frac{(1-0.2-0.35)*100mol-(1-0.95-0.04)*18.95mol}{81.05} =0.553$

Therefore, the molar composition of the bottom product is 2.5 % butane, 42.2 % pentane and 55.3 % hexane.

NOTE: notice the result is independent of the value of the assumed feed, it means that no matter the basis, the compositions will be the same for the same recovery of butane at the feed, only the flows will change.

Regards.

An unknown amount of acid can often be determined by adding an excess of base and then back-titrating the excess. A 0.3471−g sam

MAXImum [283]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of mixture = 0.3471 g

As the mixture contains oxalic acid and benzoic acid. So, oxalic acid will have two protons and benzoic acid has one proton.

This means oxalic acid will react with 2 moles of NaOH and benzoic acid will react with 1 mole of NaOH.

Hence, moles of NaOH in 97 ml = $\frac{0.1090 \times 97}{1000}$

= $10.573 \times 10^{-3} mol$

Moles of HCl in 21.00 ml = $\frac{0.2060 \times 21}{1000}$

= $4.326 \times 10^{-3}$ mol

Therefore, total moles of NaOH that reacted are as follows.

$10.573 \times 10^{-3} mol$ - $4.326 \times 10^{-3} mol$

= $6.247 \times 10^{-3}$ mol

So, total 3 mole of NaOH will react with 1 mole of mixture. Therefore, number of moles of NaOH reacted with benzoic acid is as follows.

$\frac{6.247 \times 10^{-3}}{3}$

= $2.082 \times 10^{-3}$ mol

Since, molar mass of NaOH is 40 g/mol. Therefore, calculate the mass of NaOH as follows.

$2.082 \times 10^{-3} mol \times 40 g/mol$

= $83.293 \times 10^{-3}$ g

= 0.0832 g

Whereas molar mass of benzoic acid is 122 g/mol.

Therefore, 40 g NaOH = 122 g benzoic acid

So, 0.0832 g NaOH = $\frac{122 g}{40 g} \times 0.0832 g$

= 0.253 g

Hence, calculate the % mass of benzoic acid as follows.

$\frac{0.253 g}{0.3471 g} \times 100$

= 73.10%

Thus, we can conclude that mass % of benzoic acid is 73.10%.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

5.05 + 5 + 5.1 = 15.15cm Then you just divide it by the amount of measurements you had like this:15.15 ÷ 3 = 5.04999971cm Then you can just round it to the 3rd figure: 5.05cm < And that's the mean/average length of the bar. :) (Or the one above if you want all of the decimals too)
