Atomic number of carbon = Number of protons = 6

Mass number of carbon = Number of protons + neutrons

= 6 + 5 = 11

How do heater meals work?

drek231 [11]

Answer:

The patented TRUE-TECH Self-Heating Technology is a simple combination of food grade iron and magnesium powder, salt, and water. When the contents of the water pouch are poured over the heater pad, the Food Heater releases enough heat to warm-up a pre-cooked meal 100 degrees Fahrenheit in approximately 10 minutes.

Which statement best compares a gamma ray to a radio wave?

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:The only difference between these different types of radiation is their wavelength or frequency. Wavelength increases and frequency (as well as energy and temperature) decreases from gamma rays to radio waves.

A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. He carefully weighs out 28.mg of oxalic acid H2C2

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0219 M

Explanation:

1) Chemical reaction.

a) Kind of reaction: neutralization

b) General form: acid + base → salt + water

c) Word equation:

sodium hydroxide + oxalic acid → sodium oxalate + water

d) Chemical equation:

NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + H₂O

b) Balanced chemical equation:

2NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + 2H₂O

2) Mole ratio

2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄ :1 mol Na₂C₂O₄ : 2 mol H₂O

3) Starting amount of oxalic acid

mass = 28 mg = 0.028 g
molar mass = 90.03 g/mol
Convert mass in grams to number of moles, n:

n = mass in grams / molar mass = 0.028 g / 90.03 g/mol = 0.000311 mol

4) Titration

Volume of base: 28.4 mL = 0.0248 liter
Concentration of base: x (unknwon)

Number of moles of acid: 2.52 mol (calculated above)

Proportion using the theoretical mole ratio (2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄)

$\frac{2}{1} =\frac{x}{2.52}\\ \\ \\x=0.000311(2)=0.000622$

That means that there are 0.000622 moles of NaOH (solute)

5) Molarity of NaOH solution

M = n / V (liter) = 0.000622 mol / 0.0284 liter = 0.0219 M

That is the correct number using three signficant figures, such as the starting data are reported.

Complete combustion of 8.10 g of a hydrocarbon produced 25.9 g of CO2 and 9.27 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h

balu736 [363]

CxHy + O2 --> x CO2 + y/2 H2O

Find the moles of CO2 : 18.9g / 44 g/mol = .430 mol CO2 = .430 mol of C in compound

Find the moles of H2O: 5.79g / 18 g/mol = .322 mol H2O = .166 mol of H in compound

Find the mass of C and H in the compound:

.430mol x 12 = 5.16 g C

.166mol x 1g = .166g H

When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.

Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).

In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
