Name 2 separate problems that occur when a sample for infrared analysis is contaminated with water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreyy893 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

  • The water molecules gets trapped in the crystal structure to be analysed and will give a peak in the spectra at about 3500 /cm , and there by hindering with the IR spectra of the sample to be analysed .
  • The second problem with the contamination of the sample with water is , that water makes the potassium bromide disc opaque which will decrease the absorption of the IR by the sample .

If 7.0 mol of NO and 5.0 mol of O2 are reacted tegethor. The reaction generates 3.0 mol of NO2. What is the percent yield for th
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Percentage yield = 30%

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of NO = 7.0 mol

Number of moles of O₂ = 5 mol

Number of moles of NO₂ = 3 mol

Percentage yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2NO + O₂ → 2NO₂

Now we will compare the moles of NO₂ with NO and O₂ .

                  NO           :               NO₂

                  2               :               2

                 7.0             :              7.0

                O₂               :                NO₂

                 1                 :                 2

                 5.0             :               2 ×5.0 = 10 mol

The number of moles of NO₂ produced by NO are less it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of NO₂ = moles × molar mass

Mass of NO₂ = 10 mol × 46g/mol

Mass of NO₂ =  460 g

Actual yield of NO₂:

Mass of NO₂ = moles × molar mass

Mass of NO₂ = 3 mol × 46g/mol

Mass of NO₂ =  138 g

Percentage yield:

Percentage yield = Actual yield/theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 138 g/ 460 g × 100

Percentage yield = 30%

Chalk markings cannot be easily rubbed off from a black board if kept for a long time.why?
snow_tiger [21]

The chalk particles embed themselves into the small pores on the surface.

Although a chalkboard seems smooth to the touch, it is quite rough at the microscopic level, with <em>pores</em> that reach below the surface.

When you drag chalk across the board, friction causes small particles of chalk to rub off onto the surface.

If you leave the markings for a long time, some of the chalk particles will work their way into the pores.

A brush will remove the surface particles, but <em>it will not be able to get at the particles in the pores</em>.
