Can Hydrocyanic acid be a Lewis Acid? What about a Lewis Base?

Chemistry
1 answer:
FinnZ [79.3K]3 years ago
8 0

HCN is a Bronsted acid; it can dissociate into H+ and CN-. And H+ is a Lewis acid because it accepts election pairs. ... In order for H+ and CN- to be formed, Hydrogen in HCN donates its electrons to Carbon. So in this sense, Hydrogen is the lewis base and Carbon is the lewis acid.

202H8(9) + 7 O2(g) > 4CO2(g) + 6 H2O(9).
lilavasa [31]

since the concentration of Carbon Dioxide will increase, it would make Q > K, cause equilibrium to shift in the direction with less moles of gas to alleviate the extra pressure. In this case, the reaction will shift left because there are fewer moles of gas present.

Red #40 has an acute oral LD50 of roughly 5000 mg dye/1 kg body weight. This means if you had a mass of 1 kg, ingesting 5000 mg
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

350 g dye

0.705 mol

2.9 × 10⁴ L

Explanation:

The lethal dose 50 (LD50) for the dye is 5000 mg dye/ 1 kg body weight. The amount of dye that would be needed to reach the LD50 of a 70 kg person is:

70 kg body weight × (5000 mg dye/ 1 kg body weight) = 3.5 × 10⁵ mg dye = 350 g dye

The molar mass of the dye is 496.42 g/mol. The moles represented by 350 g are:

350 g × (1 mol / 496.42 g) = 0.705 mol

The concentration of Red #40 dye in a sports drink is around 12 mg/L. The volume of drink required to achieve this mass of the dye is:

3.5 × 10⁵ mg × (1 L / 12 mg) = 2.9 × 10⁴ L
