Answer:

8.37 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

C₆H₁₂O₆     ⇒   2 C₂H₅OH (l) + 2 CO₂ (g)

Now we are asked to calculate the mass  of glucose required to produce 2.25 L CO₂ at 1atm and 295 K.

From the ideal gas law we can determine the number of moles that the 2.25 L represent.

From there we will use the stoichiometry of the reaction to determine the moles of glucose which knowing the molar mass can be converted to mass.

PV = nRT    ⇒ n = PV/RT

n= 1 atm x 2.25 L / ( 0.08205 Latm/kmol x 295 K ) =0.093 mol CO₂

Moles glucose required:

0.093 mol CO₂  x  ( 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆   / 2 mol CO₂ ) =  0.046 mol C₆H₁₂O₆

The molar mass of glucose is 180.16 g/mol, then the mass required is

0.046 mol x 180.16 g/mol = 8.37 g

The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold.
azamat

Answer:

(a) m_{gold}=7.322g

(b)

V_{gold}=0.379cm^3

V_{copper}=0.122cm^3

(c) \rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, with the given formula we easily compute the mass of gold contained in the sovereign  as shown below:

m_{gold}=\frac{m_{tota}*karats}{24}=\frac{7.988g*22}{24}=7.322g

(b) Now, by knowing the density of gold and copper, 19.32 and 8.94 g/cm³ respectively, we compute each volume, by also knowing that the rest of the coin contains copper:

V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}} =\frac{7.322g}{19.32g/cm^3}=0.379cm^3

m_{copper}=7.988g-7.322g=1.09g\\V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}=\frac{1.09g}{8.94g/cm^3}  \\\\V_{copper}=0.122cm^3

(c) Finally, the volume is computed by dividing the total mass over the total volume containing both gold and copper:

\rho _{coin}=\frac{m_{total}}{V_{gold}+V_{copper}}=\frac{7.988 g}{0.379cm^3+0.122cm^3}\\  \\\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3

Best regards.

Would aluminum be as useful as food wrapping if it had a much lower melting point? Explain your answer.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The correct answers are as follows:

1. Aluminium will not be useful as food wrapping if it has a much lower melting point.

Aluminum is a metallic element that is malleable and soft, thus, it is easy to beat it into thin sheet, which are used to package food. The thin sheet is called aluminium foil. Aluminum is useful as a food wrapping because it has high temperature and thus, it does not react with food (the hotness of the packaged food is not capable of melting the metal). If the melting point of aluminium is lower, this implies that little temperature, such as the one from hot food will be able to melt aluminum foil, thus allowing the food to be contaminated with the metal.

2. When bleach react with fabric dye chemical change occur in the fabric.

The major element in bleach is chlorine. When laundry bleach is added to a fabric, the chlorine component of the bleach will react with the fabric dye and cause a colour change in the fabric. This type of change is called chemical change, because the original colour of the fabric can not be recovered.

3. Every substance has specific properties, which can be used to identify it. Two of such specific properties are melting point and boiling point. Melting point refers to a specific temperature at which a solid substance will melt while boiling point refers to a specific temperature at which a liquid substance will boil and turn to steam.

Water for instance has a boiling point of 100 degree Celsius. To find out if an unknown substance is water, one can determine the boiling point of such liquid. A boiling point of 100 degree Celsius will strongly signify that the substance is probably water. The same thing applies to melting point. If the specific boiling and melting point of substances are known, then they can be used to identify them.

Suppose you have a sample of table salt (NaCl) that has a mass of 100.0 grams. If
IgorC [24]

Taking into account the definition of molarity, the concentration of the solution is 0.855 \frac{moles}{liter}.

<h3>Definition of molarity</h3>

Molar concentration or molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution and indicates the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of the solution:

Molarity=\frac{number of moles}{volume}

Molarity is expressed in units \frac{moles}{liter}.

<h3>Molarity of NaCl</h3>

In this case, you have:

  • number of moles of NaCl= 100 grams\frac{1 mole}{58.45 grams} =1.71 moles (being 58.45 g/mole the molar mass of NaCl)
  • volume 2 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

Molarity=\frac{1.71 moles}{2 L}

Solving:

Molarity= 0.855 \frac{moles}{liter}

Finally, the concentration of the solution is 0.855 \frac{moles}{liter}.
