Answer:

There is 5.56 g of gold for every 1 g of chlorine

Explanation:

The ratio is the relationship between two numbers, defined as the ratio of one number to the other. So, the ratio between two numbers a and b is the fraction \frac{a}{b}

You know that a compound has 15.39 g of gold for every 2.77 g of chlorine. This can be expressed by the ratio:

\frac{15.39 g  of gold}{2.77 g of chlorine}

The proportion is the equal relationship that exists between two reasons and is represented by:    \frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}

This reads a is a b as c is a d.

To calculate the amount of gold per 1 g of chlorine, the following proportion is expressed:

\frac{15.39 g  of gold}{2.77 g of chlorine}=\frac{mass of gold}{1 g of chlorine}

Solving for the mass of gold gives:

mass of gold=1 g of chlorine*\frac{15.39 g  of gold}{2.77 g of chlorine}

mass of gold= 5.56 grams

So, <u><em>there is 5.56 g of gold for every 1 g of chlorine</em></u>

If 1.320 moles of CH4 reacts completely with oxygen, how many grams of H2O can be formed
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

47.5 g of water can be formed

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

CH₄  +  2O₂  →  CO₂ + 2H₂O

Methane combustion.

In this process 1 mol of methane react with 2 moles of oxygen to produce 2 moles of water and 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

As ratio is 1:2, I will produce the double of moles of water, with the moles of methane I have.

1.320 mol  .2 = 2.64 moles

Now, we can convert the moles to mass (mol . molar mass)

2.64 mol . 18g/mol = 47.5 g

Which of the following is an acceptable IUPAC name?(A) 3,6-dimethylheptane (B) 2-ethyl-3-methylheptane (C) 5-methyl-3-ethylhepta
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

D) 4-ethyl-4-methylheptane

Explanation:

The rules for naming of alkanes with substituents.

1. The carbon chain with the maximum number of carbon atoms must be selected as a parent chain.

2.Numbering should be done in such a way that each substituent gets the least number.

3. Substituents whose name comes before the another substituents's name in the English alphabet is written first.

4. Substituents are written first with their location in the chain and the name of the parent chain is done. Numbers are separated from numbers by comma and numbers are separated from letters by using hyphen.

Considering (a) 3,6-dimethylheptane

<u>Violation of Rule - 2 mentioned above</u>

The numbering of the parent chain is not done in a right way. Numbering must be done such that each substituent gets the least number. So, The correct name is 2,5-dimethylheptane

Considering (b) 2-ethyl-3-methylheptane

<u>Violation of Rule - 1 mentioned above.</u>

The carbon chain with the maximum number of carbon atoms must be selected as a parent chain. The parent chain selected is of 7 carbon atoms but the parent chain is of 8 carbon atoms. So, The correct name is 3,4-dimethyloctane

Considering (c) 5-methyl-3-ethylheptane

<u>Violation of Rule - 3 mentioned above.</u>

'e' comes before 'm' . So, ethyl- is written first than methyl- . So, The correct name is 3,6-dimethyloctane

Considering (d) 4-ethyl-4-methylheptane

<u>This is a IUPAC name and following all the rules mentioned above.</u>
