do you mean fractional distillation of crude oil ?

if you do then this is what happens:

basically, crude oil is made up of a lot of hydrocarbons so it's put into a fracitonating column to separate these compounds into fractions. the top of the fractionating column is colder whereas the bottom of the column is hotter.

gases, petrol, diesel and kerosene come out near the top of the top of the column because they are shorter chains. substances near the top of the column also have a lower boiling point (since it's cooler and there's less intermolecular forces).

the substances at the top of the column are typically useful fuels because they have a higher ease of ignition (higher up=easier to ignite, lower down = harder to ignite). Also, substances at the top have a low viscosity so they can flow easily.

substances that come out near the bottom of the fracitonating column include fuel oil and bitumen.

these are longer chains of hydrocarbons and bitumen is used for road surfacing.

these substances have a high viscosity (harder to flow) and have a high boiling point since they have more intermolecular forces which require a lot of energy to break. Also the bottom of the fractionating column is warmer and this is where these fractions are released.

A flask with a volume of 3.16 l contains 9.33 grams of an unknown gas at 32.0°c and 1.00 atm. What is the molar mass of the gas?

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

73.88 g/mol

Explanation:

For this question we have to keep in mind that the unknown substance is a gas, therefore we can use the ideal gas law:

$PV=nRT$

In this case we will have:

P= 1 atm

V= 3.16 L

T = 32 ªC = 305.15 ºK

R= 0.082 $\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}$

n= ?

So, we can solve for "n" (moles):

$1~atm*3.16~L~=~n*0.082~\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*305.15~K$

$n=\frac{1~atm*3.16~L~}{0.082~\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*305.15~K}$

$n=0.126~mol$

Now, we have to remember that the molar mass value has "g/mol" units. We already have the grams (9.33 g), so we have to divide by the moles:

$molar~mass=\frac{9.33~grams}{0.126~mol}$

$molar~mass=73.88\frac{grams}{mol}$

How many moles are in a 12.0 g sample of NiC12

Nady [450]

Answer:

0.17 moles

Explanation:

In the elements of the periodic table, the atomic mass = molar mass. Ex: Atomic mass of Carbon is 12.01 amu which means molar mass of Carbon is also 12.01g/mol.

In order to find the # of moles in a 12 g sample of NiC-12, we will need to multiply the number of each atom by its molar mass and then add the masses of both Nickel and C-12 found in the periodic table:

Molar Mass of Ni (Nickel): 58.69 g/mol

Molar Mass of C (Carbon): 12.01 g/mol

Since there's just one atom of both Carbon and Nickel, we just add up the masses to find the molar mass of the whole compound of NiC-12.

58.69 g/mol of Nickel + 12.01 g/mol of Carbon = 70.7 g/mol of NiC-12

There's 12g of NiC-12, which is less than the molar mass of NiC-12, so the number of moles should be less than 1. In order to find the # of moles in NiC-12, we need to do some dimensional analysis:

12g NiC-12 (1 mol of NiC-12/70.7g NiC-12) = 0.17 mol of NiC-12
The grams cancel, leaving us with moles of NiC-12, so the answer is 0.17 moles of NiC-12 in a 12 g sample.

P.S. C-12 or C12 just means that the Carbon atom has an atomic mass of 12amu and a molar mass of 12g/mol, or just regular carbon.

How many chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion and why??

antiseptic1488 [7]

3 Chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion.

In ionic bonds, metals atoms loses all its outermost shell electrons to form a cation. While, non metal atoms gains however many electrons in order to make its outermost electron shell be 8 (or 2 if there's only one shell).

Therefore, form the periodic table, we can see that aluminum has a atomic number of 13, which makes its electron arrangement be 2,8,3. So, in order to form a aluminum ion, an Al atom must lose 3 electrons. On the other hand, Chlorine has a atomic number of 17, which means it has the electron configuration of 2,8,7. It has to gain only 1 electron to have 8 outermost shell electron.

Thereofre, 3 Chlorine atom are required to gain all 3 electrons given out by just 1 aluminum ion.

How many molecules of CaCi2 are equivalent to 75.9 grams

horsena [70]

M CaCl₂: 40+(35,5×2) = 111 g/mol

6,02·10²³ molecules ---------- 111g
X molecules --------------------- 75,9g
X = (75,9×6,02·10²³)/111
X = 4,116·10²³ molecules of CaCl₂
