Answer:

True

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass states that for a closed system the mass have to remain constant in time, so for chemical equations you need to ensure that is balanced. Otherwise if you do not balance the equation you would not know how much of a compound to weight for a certain reaction, or you weight an incorrect quantity.

Hey there!

Answer: Protons

The atom in a sample of an element must contain nuclei with the same number of protons. If the protons change in number, then the element will modify as well.

A 100.0 mL solution containing 0.864 g of maleic acid (MW=116.072 g/mol) is titrated with 0.276 M KOH. Calculate the pH of the s

Lilit [14]

Answer:

pH = 1.32

Explanation:

H₂M + KOH ------------------------ HM⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

This problem involves a weak diprotic acid which we can solve by realizing they amount to buffer solutions. In the first deprotonation if all the acid is not consumed we will have an equilibrium of a wak acid and its weak conjugate base. Lets see:

So first calculate the moles reacted and produced:

n H₂M = 0.864 g/mol x 1 mol/ 116.072 g = 0.074 mol H₂M

54 mL x 1L / 1000 mL x 0. 0.276 moles/L = 0.015 mol KOH

it is clear that the maleic acid will not be completely consumed, hence treat it as an equilibrium problem of a buffer solution.

moles H₂M left = 0.074 - 0.015 = 0.059

moles HM⁻ produced = 0.015

Using the Henderson - Hasselbach equation to solve for pH:

ph = pKₐ + log ( HM⁻/ HA) = 1.92 + log ( 0.015 / 0.059) = 1.325

Notes: In the HH equation we used the moles of the species since the volume is the same and they will cancel out in the quotient.

For polyprotic acids the second or third deprotonation contribution to the pH when there is still unreacted acid ( Maleic in this case) unreacted.

Explanation:

1.Given:

Molar mass=216.8g

Molecular formula=Pd $H_{2}$

we know;

Molecular formula=n(Empirical formula)

molecular weight of palladium(Pd)=106.4u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

Molar mass of Pd $H_{2}$ :

Pd=106.4×1=106.4u

H=1×2=2

molar mass of Pd $H_{2}$ =106.4+2=108.4

n= $\frac{216.8}{106.4}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2(Pd $H_{2}$ )

Molecular formula= $Pd_{2}H_{2}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $Pd_{2}H_{2}$

2. Given:

Molar mass=30.0g

Molecular formula= $CH_{3}$

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

Molar mass of $CH_{3}$ :

C=12.01 × 1 = 12.01u

H=1 × 3 = 3u

molar mass of $CH_{3}$ =12.01 + 3 =15.01u

n= $\frac{30.0}{15.01}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2( $CH_{3}$ )

Molecular formula= $C_{2} H_{6}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{2} H_{6}$

3. Given:

Molar mass=129g

Molecular formula=CHOCl

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

molecular weight of oxygen(O)=16.00u

molecular weight of chlorie(Cl)=35.5u

Molar mass of CHOCl:

C=12.01 × 1 = 12.01u

H=1 × 1 = 1u

O=16.00×1=16.00u

Cl=35.5×1=35.5u

molar mass of CHOCl=12.01+1+16.00+35.5=64.5u

n= $\frac{129}{64.5}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2(CHOCl)

Molecular formula= $C_{2} H_{2} O_{2} Cl_{2}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{2} H_{2} O_{2} Cl_{2}$

5. Given:

Molar mass=577g

Molecular formula= $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$

we know;

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of Thallium(Tl)=204.3u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

molecular weight of oxygen(O)=16.00u

Molar mass of $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$ :

C=12.01 × 2= 24.02u

Tl=204.3×1=204.3u

H=1×2=2u

O=16.00×3=48.00

molar mass of $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$ =204.3+24.02+1+48.00=278.32u

n= $\frac{577}{278.32}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2 ( $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$ )

Molecular formula= $Tl_{2 } C_{4} H_{4}O_{6}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $Tl_{2 } C_{4} H_{4}O_{6}$

Molecular formula=CClN

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of chlorine(Cl)=35.5u

Molar mass of CClN:

C=12.01 × 1 = 12.01u

N=1×14=14U

Cl=35.5×1=35.5u

molar mass of CClN=12.01+14+35.5=61.5u

n= $\frac{184.5}{61.5}$

n=3

Molecular formula=3 (CClN)

Molecular formula= $C_{3}Cl_{3} N_{3}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{3}Cl_{3} N_{3}$

molecular weight of carbon=12.04u

molecular weight of hydrogen=1u

C=8×12.01=96.08u

H=1×8=8u

molar mass of $C_{8}H_{8}$ =96.08+8=104.08u

n=104.08÷78.0

n=1

Molecular formula = n(Empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 1( $C_{8}H_{8}$ )

Molecular formula = $C_{8}H_{8}$

Therefore the molecular formula of a compound is $C_{8}H_{8}$

7. Given:

mass of oxide of nitrogen=108g

mass of nitrogen=4.02g

mass of oxygen=11.48g

moles of nitrogen= $\frac{4.04}{14.01}$ = 0.289 moles

moles of oxygen= $\frac{11.46}{15.999}$ =0.716 moles

We divide through by the lowest molar quantity to give an empirical formula of $N_{2} O{5}$ .

Now the molecular formula is multiple of the empirical formula.

So,

108 = n × (2×14.01 + 5×15.999)

Clearly,n=1, and the molecular formula is $N_{2}O_{5}$ .

8.For the table refer the attached file.
