Answer:

a) HC₂H₃O₂, C₂H₃O₂⁻, H₃O⁺, H₂O, OH⁻

b) HC₂H₃O₂ + LiOH ⇄ H₂O + LiC₂H₃O₂

c) C₂H₃O₂⁻ + HBr ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + Br⁻

Explanation:

a) In a HC₂H₃O₂/C₂H₃O₂⁻ buffer system, the following reactions take place:

HC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O ⇄ C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₃O⁺

C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻

Thus, the species present are: HC₂H₃O₂, C₂H₃O₂⁻, H₃O⁺, H₂O, OH⁻.

b) When LiOH is added to the buffer system, it is partially neutralized according to the following equation.

HC₂H₃O₂ + LiOH ⇄ H₂O + LiC₂H₃O₂

c) When HBr is added to the buffer system, it is partially neutralized according to the following equation.

C₂H₃O₂⁻ + HBr ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + Br⁻

It takes one oxygen to combine with two hydrogen atoms to form water. What is the mass ratio of oxygen to hydrogen? 1 to 2 4 to
Rasek [7]

Answer:

8 to 1.

Explanation:

  • Oxygen combines with hydrogen atoms to form water according to the balanced equation:

<em>O₂ + 2H₂ → 2H₂O.</em>

It is clear that one mole of oxygen combines with two moles of hydrogen atoms to form 2 moles of water.

So, the molar ratio of oxygen to hydrogen is (1 to 2).

  • The mass of 1 mole of oxygen = (no. of moles)(molar mass) = (1 mol)(32.0 g/mol) = 32.0 g.
  • The mass of 2 moles of hydrogen = (no. of moles)(molar mass) = (2 mol)(2.0 g/mol) = 4.0 g.

<em>So, the mass ratio of oxygen to hydrogen (32.0 g/4.0 g) = (8: 1).</em>

a 20.5g sample of cleaning detergent contains 8.61g of NH40H.CALCULATE the percentage composition of nitrogen in the cleaning de
AysviL [449]

Answer:

The mass percentage composition of nitrogen in the sample of the cleaning detergent is approximately 16.78%  

Explanation:

The given mass of the sample of the cleaning detergent, m₁ = 20.5 g

The mass of the ammonium hydroxide, NH₄OH in the detergent, m₂ = 8.61 g

The molar mass of NH₄OH = 35.04 g/mol

The molar mass of nitrogen, N = 14.01 g/mol

Therefore, the mass, m₃ of nitrogen, N, in 8.61 g of ammonium hydroxide, NH₄OH, is found as follows;

m₃ = (14.01/35.04) × 8.61 g = (402,087/118,800) g ≈ 3.44 g

The mass of nitrogen, N, in the ammonium hydroxide, NH₄OH, contained in the 20.5 g sample of the cleaning agent, m₃ ≈ 3.44 grams

The percentage composition of nitrogen in the sample of the cleaning detergent, %N is given as follows;

\% Composition = \dfrac{Mass \ of \ component}{Total \ mass \ of \ cleaning \ detergent} \times 100

Therefore;

%N ≈ ((3.44 g)/(20.5 g)) × 100 ≈ 16.78 %

The percentage composition of nitrogen, %N ≈ 16.78%.

How did scientists find out about atoms before technology?
sasho [114]

Answer:

There are three ways that scientists have proved that these sub-atomic particles exist. They are direct observation, indirect observation or inferred presence and predictions from theory or conjecture. Scientists in the 1800's were able to infer a lot about the sub-atomic world from chemistry.

Assuming that all the energy given off in the reaction goes to heating up only the air in the house, determine the mass of metha
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

0.92 kg

Explanation:

The volume occupied by the air is:

35.0m\times 35.0m \times 3.2m \times \frac{10^{3}L }{1m^{3} } =3.9 \times 10^{6} L

The moles of air are:

3.9 \times 10^{6} L \times \frac{1.00mol}{22.4L} =1.7 \times 10^{5}mol

The heat required to heat the air by 10.0 °C (or 10.0 K) is:

1.7 \times 10^{5}mol \times \frac{30J}{K.mol} \times 10.0 K = 5.1 \times 10^{7}J

Methane's heat of combustion is 55.5 MJ/kg. The mass of methane required to heat the air is:

5.1 \times 10^{7}J \times \frac{1kgCH_{4}}{55.5 \times 10^{6} J } =0.92kgCH_{4}
