Acetylsalicylic acid (C9H8O4) is a monoprotic acid commonly known as aspirin. A typical aspirin tablet, however, contains only a

small amount of the acid. In an experiment to determine its composition, an aspirin tablet was crushed and dissolved in water. It took 14.40 mL of 0.1466 M NaOH to neutralize the solution. Calculate the number of grains of aspirin in the tablet. (One grain = 0.0648 g and the molar mass of aspirin = 180.2 g/mol.)

Answer:

6 grains

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction between NaOH and aspirin is;

C9H8O4(aq) + NaOH (aq) ------>C9H7O4Na(aq) + H2O(l)

Amount of NaOH reacted = concentration × volume = 0.1466 M × 14.40/1000 L = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Given that aspirin and NaOH react in a mole ratio of 1:1 from the balanced reaction equation above, the number of moles of aspirin reacted is 2.11 × 10^-3 moles

Hence mass of aspirin reacted = 2.11 × 10^-3 moles × 180.2 g/mol = 0.38 g

If 1 grain = 0.0648 g

x grains = 0.38 g

x= 0.38 g/0.0648 g

x= 6 grains

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

second law of thermodynamics.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics deals with interconversion of energy from one form to another. Although energy can be converted from one form to another, this conversion is never 100% efficient because energy is lost in certain ways such as through heat. In a combustion engine, it is not possible to recover the energy from the gasoline 100% since energy must be lost along the way via such means as heat losses. Hence I will be skeptical about such an advert.

Which best describes a stock solution that is used in a dilution?
RSB [31]
A stock solution is a solution of a known concentration. Stock solution has a high concentration and therefore, the known amount of stock solution is used for preparing different concentrations, by diluting the same with the known amount of the solvent being used, such as water.

1. The molar mass of the unknown gas obtained is 0.096 g/mol

2. The pressure of the oxygen gas in the tank is 1.524 atm

<h3>Graham's law of diffusion </h3>

This states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass i.e

R ∝ 1/ √M

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

<h3>1. How to determine the molar mass of the gas </h3>
  • Rate of unknown gas (R₁) = 11.1 mins
  • Rate of H₂ (R₂) = 2.42 mins
  • Molar mass of H₂ (M₂) = 2.02 g/mol
  • Molar mass of unknown gas (M₁) =?

R₁/R₂ = √(M₂/M₁)

11.1 / 2.42 = √(2.02 / M₁)

Square both side

(11.1 / 2.42)² = 2.02 / M₁

Cross multiply

(11.1 / 2.42)² × M₁ = 2.02

Divide both side by (11.1 / 2.42)²

M₁ = 2.02 / (11.1 / 2.42)²

M₁ = 0.096 g/mol

<h3>2. How to determine the pressure of O₂</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Volume (V) = 438 L
  • Mass of O₂ = 0.885 kg = 885 g
  • Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g/mol
  • Mole of of O₂ (n) = 885 / 32 = 27.65625 moles
  • Temperature (T) = 21 °C = 21 + 273 = 294 K
  • Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol
  • Pressure (P) =?

The pressure of the gas can be obtained by using the ideal gas equation as illustrated below:

PV = nRT

Divide both side by V

P = nRT / V

P = (27.65625 × 0.0821 × 294) / 438

P = 1.524 atm
