Answer:

mass of CO2 = 88 g

Explanation:

It is stated in question that 18.7 g of oxygen remained unreacted which means that carbon is limiting reactant. Thus the amount of carbon dioxide produced depend upon the amount of carbon.

Given data:

mass of carbon = 24 g

total mass of oxygen 82.7 g

mass of unreacted oxygen = 18.7 g

mass of carbon dioxide = ?

Solution:

First of we will calculate the moles of carbon.

number of moles of carbon = mass of carbon / atomic weight

number of moles of carbon = 24 g/ 12 g/mol = 2 mol

Chemical equation:

C + O2 → CO2

now we compare the number of moles of carbon and carbon dioxide,

  C   :  CO2

  1    :    1

 2    :    2

Now we will calculate the mass of carbon dioxide from moles.

number of moles of CO2 = mass of CO2 / molar mass of CO2

2 mol × 44 g/mol = mass

mass of CO2 = 88 g

Can a substance be a lewis acid without being a bronsted-lowry acid?argue
storchak [24]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, A substance can be a lewis acid without being a Bronsted-Lowery acid because there are some substances which cannot donate protons(Bronsted-Lowery acid) but can accept a pair of electron.

<u><em>For Example:</em></u>

Let us take the example of BF₃

BF₃ contains no proton so it is not a Bronsted Lowery Acid

However, BF₃ has an incomplete octet with 6 electrons. It needs an electron pair to complete its octet. It accepts a pair of electron to become a Lewis Acid

Draw the structure(s) of the major organic product(s) of the following reaction. 1. lithium diisopropylamide / hexane 2. 1 eq. C
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

You are not providing the starting material, however, I manage to find a similar question to this, so I'm gonna use it as a basis to help you answer yours.

Now let's analyze what is happening in the reaction so we can predict the final product.

We have a ketone here, reacting at first with LDA. This is a very strong base that is commonly used in reactions with ketones and aldehydes to promove a condensation. To do this, as LDA is a strong base it will occur firts an acid base reaction, substracting the most acidic hydrogen in the molecule (Which in this case, is the Beta hydrogen of the carbonile). This will cause an enolate formation.

Then, this enolate will react with the CH3I and form a new product. The final result would be a ketone with a methyl group now attached. In the picture 2, you have the mechanism and final product.

Hope this helps
