<span>This compound is a derivative of ethene, which is CH2=CH2. In place of the fourth H atom, CH3 has a lone pair (as shown in the above formula). Or, it can be bonded to another compound as well in that empty spot.</span>
Answer:
<em>The grams of hydrogen gas that are released is 0.343 gram</em>
Explanation:
<em>Given that:</em>
<em>2 Na + 2h₂0 ⇒ 2Na0H +N₂</em>
<em>Molecules of Na = 7.9/2.3 = 0.343 mol Na</em>
<em>Now,</em>
<em>2 molecules of Na produces one mole h₂</em>
<em>0.343 mol of Na produce 0.343/2 = 0.1717 mol h₂</em>
<em>h2 = molecules * mw (molecular weight) =0.1717 * 2 =0.343 grams</em>
<em>Therefore the grams of hydrogen gas released is = 0.343 grams</em>
The formula of citric acid is:
CO2H

HO - C - CH2CO2H
|
C - CH2 CO2H
I bolded the 4 hydrogens that can be subsituted by sodium.
Three of those hydrogens belong to carboxyl group (- CO2H) and one to a hydroxyl group (- OH).
You need to take into account that 4 H will form 2 H2 molecules.
So, the answer is that 2 moles of molecules will be formed from 1 mole of citric acid molecules.
