Answer:

An halogen addition reaction, particularly bromine addition, could be used to check if the hydrogenation has completed.

Explanation:

The aim is to find a way to check if the hydrogenation process of an alkene has completed. So the logic should be use a reaction that needs the participation of the double bound of the alkene, and therefore shouldn't take place in the process has finished.

A simple organic reaction is the halogen addition reaction, which occur between the halogen molecule and the double bond of the alkene. Basically, the pi electrons of the double bond attacks a relatively electrophilic halogen atom following a mechanism that leads to the addition of two halogen atoms to the double bond. As a consequence the alkene transforms into an haloalkane.

Also, a commonly used halogen is bromine, as it has a reasonable reactivity and it has red colour, which allows to monitor the progression of the reaction.

Taking all this in account, we can say that using a bromine addition reaction to the alkene it's a good option to check the completion of the hydrogenation.

Note that the bromine will react only if the double bond is present. So, if the hydrogenation has completed, the reaction won't occur. Using bromine will be the best option, as it is red coloured. That means that is we add bromine to an incomplete hydrogenation, as it will react with the alkene, the colour should disappear.

In other words, to check if the hydrogenation reaction has completed, we should add bromine and see what happens to the colour. If it doesn't change, then the hydrogenation reaction has completed.

Calculate the mass in 4.05*10^22 molecules of calcium phosphate
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

m = 20.9 g.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to solve this problem by recalling both the Avogadro's number for the calculation of the moles in the given molecules of calcium phosphate and the molar mass of this compound in order to secondly calculate the mass as shown on the following setup:

m=4.05x10^{22}molecules*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}}*\frac{310.18g}{1mol}\\\\m=20.9g

Regards!

How many atoms of hydrogen are present in 2.92 g of water?
Wittaler [7]
The molecular weight of water is <span>18.01528 g/mol.
So in 2.92 grams there are 2.92/</span>18.01528 = 0.1621 mol of particles.

1 mol contains 6,02214 × 10^<span>23 particles by definition.

So the nr of H2O molecules is </span>0.1621 * 6,02214 × 10^23 = 0,9761 × 10^23.

Every molecule has 2 H atoms, so you have to double that.

2* 0,9761 × 10^23 = 1.952 × 10^23.

A student is preparing to perform a series of calorimetry experiments. She first wishes to determine the calorimeter constant (C
laila [671]

Answer:

  • First choice: 99 J/K

Explanation:

<u>1) First law of thermodynamic (energy balance)</u>

  • Heat released by the the hot water (345K ) = Heat absorbedby the cold water (298 K) + Heat absorbed by the calorimeter

<u>2) Energy change of each substance:</u>

  • General formula:

     

Heat released or absorbed = mass × Specific heat × change in temperature

  • density of water: you may take 0.997 g/ ml as an average density for the water.

  • mass of water: mass = density × volume = 50.0 ml × 0.997 g/ml = 49.9 g

  • Specif heat of water: 1 cal / g°C

  • Heat released by the hot water:

       Heat₁ = 49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (345 K - 317 K) = 49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (28K)

  • Heat absorbed by the cold water:

       Heat₂ = 49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (317 K - 298 K) = 49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (19K)

  • Heat absorbed by the calorimeter

       Heat₃ = Ccal × (317 K - 298 K) = Ccal × (19K)

<u>4) Balance</u>

  • Heat₁ = Heat₂ + Heat₃

49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (28 K) = 49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (19 K) + Ccal × (19 K)

  • Solve for Ccal

Ccal = [49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (28 K) - 49.9 g × 1 cal / g°C × (19 K) ] / 19K

Ccal = 23.6 cal/ K

  • Convert to cal / K to Joule / K

  • 1 cal = 4.18 Joule

       23.6 cal / K × 4.18 J / cal = 98.6 J/K

Which rounded to 2 signficant figures leads to 99 J/k, which is the first choice.
