A mixture contains only NaCl and Al2(SO4)3. A 1.45-g sample of the mixture is dissolved in water, and an ex- cess of NaOH is add

ed, producing a precipitate of Al(OH)3. The precipitate is filtered, dried, and weighed. The mass of the precipitate is 0.107 g. What is the mass percent of Al2(SO4)3 in the sample?

Answer:

The mass percent of aluminum sulfate in the sample is 16.18%.

Explanation:

Mass of the sample = 1.45 g

Al_2SO_3+6NaOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3Na_2SO_4

Mass of the precipitate = 0.107 g

Moles of aluminum hydroxide = \frac{0.107 g}{78 g/mol}=0.001372 mol

According to reaction, 2 moles of aluminum hydroxide is obtained from 1 mole of aluminum sulfate .

Then 0.001372 moles of aluminum hydroxide will be obtained from:

\frac{1}{2}\times 0.001372 mol=0.000686 mol

Mass of 0.000686 moles of aluminum sulfate :

= 0.000686 mol × 342 g/mol = 0.2346 g

The mass percent of aluminum sulfate in the sample:

=\frac{ 0.2346 g}{1.45g}\times 100=16.18\%

A compound is composed of 13% carbon, 4.3% hydrogen, 30.4% nitrogen, and 52.2% oxygen. The mystery compound has a molar mass of
vredina [299]

Answer:

C₂H₈N₄O₆ is the molecular formula for the compound

Explanation:

Data from the problem:

13 g of C in 100 g of compound

4.3 g of H in 100 g of compound

30.4 g of N in 100 g of compound

52.2 g of O in 100 g of compound

Firstly we determine, the mass of each in 184 g of compound, which is 1 mol

(13 g / 100 g) . 184 g  = 24 g C

(4.3 g  / 100 g) . 184 g  = 7.91 g H ≅ 8 g H

(30.4 g / 100 g) . 184 g  = 56 g N

(52.2 g  / 100 g) . 184 g  = 96 g O

And now, we divide the mass by the molar mass of each to determine the moles:

24 g C / 12 g/mol = 2 mol C

8g H / 1 g/mol = 8 mol H

56 g N / 14 g/mol = 4 mol N

96 g O / 16 g/mol = 6 mol O

So the molecular formula of the compound is C₂H₈N₄O₆

Three kilograms of steam is contained in a horizontal, frictionless piston and the cylinder is heated at a constant pressure of
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Final temperature: 659.8ºC

Expansion work: 3*75=225 kJ

Internal energy change: 275 kJ

Explanation:

First, considering both initial and final states, write the energy balance:

U_{2}-U_{1}=Q-W

Q is the only variable known. To determine the work, it is possible to consider the reversible process; the work done on a expansion reversible process may be calculated as:

dw=Pdv

The pressure is constant, so:  w=P(v_{2}-v_{1} )=0.5*100*1.5=75\frac{kJ}{kg} (There is a multiplication by 100 due to the conversion of bar to kPa)

So, the internal energy change may be calculated from the energy balance (don't forget to multiply by the mass):

U_{2}-U_{1}=500-(3*75)=275kJ

On the other hand, due to the low pressure the ideal gas law may be appropriate. The ideal gas law is written for both states:

P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}

P_{2}V_{2}=nRT_{2}\\V_{2}=2.5V_{1}\\P_{2}=P_{1}\\2.5P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{2}  

Subtracting the first from the second:

1.5P_{1}V_{1}=nR(T_{2}-T_{1})

Isolating T_{2}:

T_{2}=T_{1}+\frac{1.5P_{1}V_{1}}{nR}

Assuming that it is water steam, n=0.1666 kmol

V_{1}=\frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}=\frac{8.314*0.1666*373.15}{500} =1.034m^{3}

T_{2}=100+\frac{1.5*500*1.034}{0.1666*8.314}=659.76 ºC
