Answer:

16.933g approximately 17.0 grams

Explanation:

From the simple promotions and given the same compound ascorbic acid (vitamin C)

In the laboratory synthesised ascorbic acid

Mass of carbon = 30.0g

Mas of Oxygen = 40.0g

That is the mass of Oxygen per unit mass of Carbon

Per gram of Carbon we have

(30.0g Carbon)÷30 combines with (40.0g of Oxygen)÷30

That is 4/3g of Oxygen per gram of Carbon

Hence the mass of Oxygen compound that combines with 12.7g of Carbonin natural occurring ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is = 4/3×12.7 = 16.933g approximately 17.0g

andre [41]

Answer: A function can be defined as a relation in which one thing is dependent on another for its value.

Explanation: Given R = 8.314J/mol*k

PV = nRT

V = nRT/ P

V = 8.314RT / P (cm^3)

Volume of gas =(( 8.314 * R* T) / P ) cm3

How many liters of oxygen gas (O2) are needed to produce 100 kJ of energy at STP? 2C6H6(I) + 1502(g) —> 12CO2(g)+6H2O(g)+3909
makkiz [27]

Answer: 8.59 L of oxygen gas are needed to produce 100 kJ of energy at STP

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

Standard condition of temperature (STP)  is 273 K and atmospheric pressure is 1 atmosphere respectively.  

1 mole of every gas occupy volume at STP = 22.4 L

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2C_6H_6(I)+15O_2(g)\rightarrow 12CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)

3909.9 kJ of of energy is produced by  = 15\times 22.4=336L

100 kJ of oxygen gas are needed to produce = \frac{336}{3909.9}\times 100=8.59L

A small diamond, which is made of pure carbon, contains too many carbon atoms to count individually. Which is closest to the num
8090 [49]

The correct answer is option C, 5.02 x 10²² carbon atoms

Atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol

According to Avogadro, 1 mole of C has 6.023 x 10²³C atoms

Now 1 mole of C is equal to 12 g

Therefore, 12 g of C = 6.023 x 10²³ C atoms

1 g of C = \frac{6.023 x 10^2^3}{12} C atoms = 5.02 x 10²² C atoms

Write the chemical equation for the reaction of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) with an Arrhenius acid of your choosing. Name and write
Inessa05 [86]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

LiOH(aq) +HCl(aq)→ LiCl(aq) + H₂O(l)

Salt formed is LiCl

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Arrhenius acid refers to a substance that ionizes in water to generate protons or hydrogen ions.
  • Examples of Arrhenius acid include acids such as HCl, H₂SO₄ and HNO₃.
  • A reaction between Lithium hydroxide and an Arrhenius acid such as HCl will yield a salt and water.

That is;

LiOH(aq) +HCl(aq)→ LiCl(aq) + H₂O(l)

  • The salt formed is LiCl
  • The reaction is an example of neutralization reaction.
