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

What mass of Al contains the same number of atoms as 33.5g of Au
wel
Stoich questions...

1) convert the grams of Au to moles
(33.5g)/(196.7g/mol)=___x___

2)find how many atoms are in that many moles by multiplying it by avogadro's number.

x(moles of Au)*(6.02*10^23)=?

3)now that you have found the number of atoms of gold, convert it to grams of aluminum by multiplying it by Avogadro's number and multiplying it by the atomic mass of aluminum.
( ? )(6.02*10^23)(26.98g/mol)= (mass of Al)

In the following redox reaction which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent? AlCl3 + Na NaCl + Al
horrorfan [7]

Answer :  Al

Explanation :

- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).

- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).

- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.

Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.

So Al is the oxidizing agent..
