High-density polyethylene may be flourinated by inducing the random substitution of Flourine atoms for hydrogen. (a) Determine t

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Concentration of Flourine = 24.756%

Explanation:

Given that :

High-density polyethylene may be flourinated by inducing the random substitution of Flourine atoms for hydrogen.

the objective is to determine he concentration of Flourine (in wt%) that must be added if this substitution occurs for 12% of all the original hydrogen atoms.

At standard conditions , the atomic weight of the these compounds are as follows:

Carbon = 12.01 g/mol

Chlorine = 35.45 g/mol

Fluorine = 19.00 g/mol

Hydrogen = 1.008 g/mol

Oxygen = 16.00 g/mol

The chemical formula for polyethylene = (CH₂ - CH₂)ₙ

Therefore, for two carbons, there will be 4 hydrogens;

i.e

(CH₂ - CH₂)₂

( C₂H₄ - C₂H₄ )

Suppose the number of original hydrogen = 4moles

number of moles of Flourine F = 12% of 4

= 0.12 × 4

= 0.48 mol

∴ the number of remaining moles of Hydrogen is:

= 4 - 0.48

= 3.52 moles

number of moles of Carbon = 2 moles

∴ the mass of flourine F = number of moles of F × molar mass of F

= 0.48 × 19

= 9.12

The total mass of the compound now is = (0.48 × 19 ) + (3.52 × 1) + (2× 12)

= 9.12 + 3.52 + 24

= 36.64

Concentration of Flourine = (mass of flourine/total mass) × 100

Concentration of Flourine = (9.12/36.84 ) × 100

Concentration of Flourine = 0.24756 × 100

Concentration of Flourine = 24.756%

Examine the equation.

Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

2H₂ $_{g}$ + O₂ $_{g}$ → 2H₂O $_{l}$

From the balance reaction expression:

2 mole of hydrogen gas combines with 1 mole of oxygen gas on the reactant side;

This produces 2 mole of water on the product side of the expression.

The product is in liquid form.

This reaction is a synthesis reaction because a single product is formed from two reactants.

When active metals such as magnesium are immersed in acid solution, hydrogen gas is evolved. Calculate the volume of H2(g) at 30

V125BC [204]

Answer:

The volume of H₂ (g) obtained is 22.4L

Explanation:

First of all, think the reaction:

2HCl (aq) + Zn (s) → ZnCl₂ (aq) + H₂ (g)

You have to add a 2, in the HCl to get ballanced.

Now we should know how many moles of each reactant, do we have.

Volume . Molarity = moles

Notice that volume is in mL, so I must convert to L.

275 mL = 0.275L

0.275L . 0.725mol/L = 0.2 moles of HCl

Molar mass of Zn: 65.41 g/m

50 g / 65.41 g/m = 0.764 moles

Ratio between reactants is 2:1, so I need the double of moles of HCl to react, and a half moles of Zn to react.

My limiting reactant is the HCl, for 0.764 moles of Zinc, I need 1.528 (0.764 .2) of HCl, and I only have 0.2 moles.

Ratio between HCl and H₂ is 1:1, so 0.2 HCl make 0.2 moles of gas

Now apply the Ideal Gas Law, to find out the volume

P. V = n . R . T

2 atm . V = 0.2 mol . 0.08206L atm/K mol . 273K

V = (0.2 mol . 0.08206L atm/K mol . 273K ) / 2 atm

V = 2.24 L
