A sample of natural rubber (200.0 g) is vulcanized, with the complete consumption of 4.8 g of sulfur. Natural rubber is a polyme

r of isoprene (C5H8). Four sulfur atoms are used in each crosslink connection. What percent of the isoprene units will be crosslinked

Answer: 1.3% many crosslinks as isoprene units,  

Explanation:

Given:

mass pf natural rubber= 200.0g

mass of sulphur = 4.8g

molar mass of sulphur =32g/mol

molar mass of isoprene = C5H8=( 12x5) +(1x8)= 68g/mol

Solution: we first find no of moles present in each  using

no of moles = \frac{mass}{molarmass}

Isoprene: 200.0g x [1mole / 68g] = 2.94moles.

Sulfur: 4.8g x [1mole / 32g] x [1 mole crosslinks / 4 moles S] = 0.0375 moles crosslinks.

to find % crosslinked units, we have  

0.0375 / 2.94 = 1.3% as many crosslinks as isoprene units,

Answer:

Earth's atmosphere contains a huge pool of nitrogen gas (N2). But this nitrogen is “unavailable” to plants, because the gaseous form cannot be used directly by plants without undergoing a transformation. To be used by plants, the N2 must be transformed through a process called nitrogen fixation.

How many Joules does it take to raise 1 g of water 2°C
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Quantitative experiments show that 4.18 Joules of heat energy are required to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1°C. Thus, a liter (1000g) of water that increased from 24 to 25°C has absorbed 4.18 J/g°C x 1000g x 1°C or 4180 Joules of energy.
