What is the percent composition of hydrogen in vinegar (CH3COOH)?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
barxatty [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

                      %H  = 6.72 %

Explanation:

                   Percent composition of an element is the total mass of that element divided by the molecular mass of compound (or molecular mass) of which it is present in.

So,

Percent composition of Hydrogen will be given as,

         %H  =  Total mass of H / Molecular Mass of Acetic Acid × 100

So,

Total Mass of H  =  1.01 × 4 = 4.04 g

Molecular Mass of Acetic acid  =  60.052 g/mol

Putting values in above formula,

         %H  =  4.04 g/mol ÷ 60.052 g/mol × 100

         %H  = 6.72 %

What branch of chemistry studies the flow of electrons?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Your answer is B, Electrochemistry!

Explanation:

This is the part of chemistry that studies the chemical process in which electrons flow. This flow is called electricity. Electricity is generated by the flow of electrons, from one element to another element. This reaction is called oxidation reduction.

5. How can you tell the difference between CuS and Cu2S
puteri [66]

Answer:

Density, melting point. and magnetic properties  

Explanation:

I can think of three ways.

1. Density

The density of Cu₂S is 5.6 g/cm³; that of CuS is 4.76 g/cm³.

It should be possible to distinguish these even with high school equipment.

2. Melting point

Cu₂S melts at 1130 °C (yellowish-red); CuS decomposes at 500 °C (faint red).

A Bunsen burner can easily reach these temperatures.

3. Magnetic properties

You can use a Gouy balance to measure the magnetic susceptibilities.

In Cu₂S the Cu⁺ ion has a d¹⁰ electron configuration, so all the electrons are paired and the solid is diamagnetic.

In CuS the Cu²⁺ ion has a d⁹ electron configuration, so all there is an unpaired electron and the solid is paramagnetic.

A sample of Cu₂S will be repelled by the magnetic field and show a decrease in weight.

A sample of CuS will be attracted by the magnetic field and show an increase in weight.

In the picture below, you can see the sample partially suspended between the poles of an electromagnet.

Which of the following statements about the carbon cycle is NOT true?
nalin [4]

Answer:

Plants consume carbon through transpiration

Explanation:

In transpiration, plants lose water vapor through the stomata in their leaves. No carbon is involved in transpiration, which has an outbound direction. Nothing can be consumed through the stomata when vapor is going out of the plant. It´s like trying to get in through the exit.
