Retinol is vitamin A and one of the components in multivitamin tablets. A 103.0 mg sample of retinol was dissolved in 1.000 g of

chloroform (Kb = 3.630°C/m), increasing the boiling point of chloroform by 1.305°C.

The formula for boiling point elevation is:
deltaT = (Kb)(m), where m is molality of moles solute per kilogram solvent
1.305 = 3.630m
m = 0.3595 = moles/kg solvent
Since we have 1 g of chloroform solvent, this is equivalent to 0.001 kg.
The number of moles is 103 mg or 0.103 g, divided by the molar mass (MM).
0.3595 = (0.103/MM) / 0.001
0.0003595 = 0.103/MM
MM = 286.51 g/mol
Therefore, the molar mass of retinol is 286.51 g/mol

In an experiment, 4.14 g of phosphorus combined with chlorine to produce 27.8 g of a white solid compound. what is the empirical
Umnica [9.8K]

Grams of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams 
Grams of white compound = 27.8 grams 
Grams of Chlorine would be = 27.8 - 4.14 = 23.66 grams
 Calculating moles which would be grams / molar mass
 Molar mass of P = 30.97 grams / moles; Molar mass of Cl = 35.45 grams / moles
 Moles of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams / 30.97 grams / moles = 0.1337 moles
 Moles of Chlorine = 23.66 grams / 35.45 grams / moles = 0.6674 moles
 Calculating the ratios by dividing with the small entity
 P = 0.1337 moles / 0.1337 moles = 1
 Cl = 0.6674 moles / 0.1337 moles = 5 
So the empirical formula would be PCl5

9. For each reaction listed, identify the proton donor (or acid) and the proton acceptor(or base).
Talja [164]

Answer:

Explanation:

conjugate acid, based on Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, is a chemical compound that is formed by the reception of a proton by a base

a. CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇌ H₃0⁺ + CH₃C00-

Acid <> CH₃COOH

Base <> H₂O

Conjugate acid <> H₃0 +

Conjugate base <>CH₃C00-

b. HCO₃ + H₂O ⇌ H₂CO₃⁻ + OH⁻

Acid <> H₂O

Base <> HCO₃

Conjugate acid <> H₂CO₃⁻

Conjugate base <>OH⁻

C. HNO₃ + SO₄²⁻ ⇌ HSO₄⁻ + NO₃⁻

Acid <>HNO₃

Base <>SO₄²⁻

Conjugate acid <>HSO₄⁻

Conjugate base <>NO₃⁻

A Bronsted acid is reffered to as a proton donor while a Bronsted base is a proton acceptor

Enter your answer in the provided box. On a certain winter day in Utah, the average atmospheric pressure is 718 torr. What is th
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.047 mol/L

Explanation:

The atmospheric air is a mixture of gases. We can assume an ideal behavior of the gas and use the ideal gas equation:

PV= nRT

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is a constant (0.082 L.atm/K.mol) and T is the temperature in K.

We have to first convert the pressure from Torr to atm:

760 Torr= 1 atm

⇒ 718 Torr x 1 atm/760 Torr = 0.945 atm

Then, we convert the temperature from ºC to K:

0ºC = 273 K

⇒ -29ºC+273= 244 K

Finally, we introduce the data in the equation and calculate de densitiy, which is the moles per liters of gas (n/V):

PV = nRT

n/V= P/RT

n/V = (0.945 atm)/(0.082 L.atm/K.mol x 244 K) = 0.047 mol/L
