Pavlova-9 [17]

Given:

K = 0.71 = Kp

The reaction of sulphur with oxygen is

S(s) + O2(g) ---> SO2(g)

initial Pressure 6.90 0

Change -x +x

Equilibrium 6.90-x x

Kp = pSO2 / pO2 = 0.71 = x / (6.90-x)

4.899 - 0.71x = x

4.899 = 1.71x

x = 2.86 atm = pressure of SO2 formed

temperature = 950 C = 950 + 273.15 K = 1223.15 K

Volume = 50 L

Let us calculate moles of SO2 formed using ideal gas equation as

PV = nRT

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

putting other values

n = PV / RT = 2.86 X 50 / 1223.15 X 0.0821 = 1.42 moles

Moles of Sulphur required = 1.42 moles

Mass of sulphur required or consumed = moles X atomic mass of sulphur

mass of S = 1.42 X 32 = 45.57 grams or 0.04557 Kg of sulphur

In a recent Grand Prix, the winner completed the race with an average speed of 299.8 km/h. What was his speed in miles per hour,

scoundrel [369]

Answer :

(a) The speed is, 186.287 mi/hr

(b) The speed is, 83.277 m/s

(c) The speed is, 273.22 feet/s

Explanation :

(a) We are given the speed is, $299.8km/hr$

As we know that,

$1km=\frac{1}{1.60934}mi$

By using both the conversion, we get:

$299.8km/hr$

$\Rightarrow \frac{299.8km}{1hr}\times \frac{1mi}{1.60934km}$

$\Rightarrow 186.287mi/hr$

The speed is, 186.287 mi/hr

(b) We are given the speed is, $299.8km/hr$

As we know that,

$1km=1000m$

and,

$1hr=3600s$

By using both the conversion, we get:

$299.8km/hr$

$\Rightarrow \frac{299.8km}{1hr}\times \frac{1000m}{1km}\times \frac{1hr}{3600s}$

$\Rightarrow 83.277m/s$

The speed is, 83.277 m/s

(c) We are given the speed is, $299.8km/hr$

As we know that,

$1km=3280.84feet$

and,

$1hr=3600s$

By using both the conversion, we get:

$299.8km/hr$

$\Rightarrow \frac{299.8km}{1hr}\times \frac{3280.84feet}{1km}\times \frac{1hr}{3600s}$

$\Rightarrow 273.22feet/s$

The speed is, 273.22 feet/s

Methyl red is a common azo dye. Which starting materials are used to prepare it?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

1. Diazonium salt

2. Coupling component

Explanation:

Azo dyes re synthesized by the combination of two organic compounds viz

1. Diazonium salt

2. Coupling component

1) For methyl red, the diazonium salt which is an intermediate product is produced by the reaction of hydrochloric acid (HCL) with anthranilic acid and sodium nitrate (NaNO₂)

2) The produced diazonium salt is then combined with dimethylaniline which is a coupling component rich in electrons to undergo a chemical reaction that by an aromatic substitution mechanism to produce methyl red as the final product.
