mass of carbonic acid = 300g

molar mass of H2CO3 = 2H + C + 3 O

= 2 x 1.008+ 12.01 + 3 x 16

= 62.03g/mol

moles of H2CO3 = mass/Molar mass

= 300/62.03

= 4.8364 moles

1 mole H2CO3 has 3 moles Oxygen

4.8364 moles H2CO3 contains

= 3 x 4.8364 moles Oxygen = 14.509 moles Oxygen

moles = mass/Molar mass

mass of oxygen = moles x Molar mass of Oxygen

= 14.509 x 16

= 232.15g Oxygen

mass of oxygen in 300g of carbonic acid(H2CO3) = 232.15g

Calculate the theoretical yield of aspirin obtained when 2.0 g of salicylic acid and 5.0 mL of acetic anhydride (density = 1.08

saw5 [17]

Answer:

The percent yield would be 73%

Explanation:

The balanced reaction for the obtention of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is the following:

Salicylic acid + acetic anhydride → acetylsalicylic acid + acetic acid

C₇H₆O₃ + C₄H₆O₃ → C₉H₈O₄ + C₂H₄O₂

According to the reaction, 1 mol of salicylic acid reacts with 1 mol of acetic anhydride to give 1 mol of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and 1 mol of acetic acid.

1 mol aspirin (C₉H₈O₄) = (9 x 12 g/mol) + (8 x 1 g/mol) + (4 x 16 g/mol)

= 180 g

1 mol salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) = (7 x 12 g/mol) + (6 x 1 g/mol) + (3 x 16 g/mol)

= 138 g

1 mol acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃) = (4 x 12 g/mol) + (6 x 1 g/mol) + (3 x 16 g/mol)

= 102 g

The stoichiometric ratio is = 138 g salicylic acid/102 g acetic anhydride= 1.35

We have:

2.0 g salicylic acid

acetic anhydride = 5.0 mL x 1.08 g/mL = 5.4 g

The reactants ratio is = 2.0 g salicylic acid/5.4 g acetic anhydride = 0.37

0.37 < 1.35 , therefore salicylic acid is the limiting reactant.

Now, we use the amount of salicylic acid to calculate the theoretical amount of aspirin. For this, we know that 1 mol of aspirin (180 g) is obtained from 1 mol of salycilic acid (138 g):

theoretical yield= 180 g aspirin/138 g salycilic acid x 2.0 g salycilic acid = 2.61 g aspirin

actual yield = 1.9 g

Finally, we calculate the yield:

percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100

= 1.9 g/2.6 g x 100 = 72.8% ≅ 73%

Consider the reaction at 500 ° C 500°C . N 2 ( g ) + 3 H 2 ( g ) − ⇀ ↽ − 2 NH 3 ( g ) K c = 0.061 N2(g)+3H2(g)↽−−⇀2NH3(g)Kc=0.06

Sav [38]

Answer:

Q = 0.061 = Kc

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Temperature = 500 °C

Kc=0.061

1.14 mol/L N2

5.52 mol/L H2

3.42 mol/L NH3

Step 2: Calculate Q

Q=[products]/[reactants]=[NH3]²/ [N2][H2]³

If Qc=Kc then the reaction is at equilibrium.

If Qc<Kc then the reaction will shift right to reach equilibrium.

If Qc>Kc then the reaction will shift left to reach equilibrium.

Q = (3.42)² / (1.14 * 5.52³)

Q = 11.6964/191.744

Q = 0.061

Q = Kc the reaction is at equilibrium.

A student is given a 2.002 g sample of unknown acid and is told that it might be butanoic acid, a monoprotic acid (HC4H7O2, equa

Elina [12.6K]

Answer: The identity of the unknown acid is butanoic acid or ascorbic acid.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.570 M

Volume of solution = 39.55 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.570M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}\times 1000}{39.55}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=\frac{0.570\times 39.55}{1000}=0.0225mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and monoprotic acid follows:

$NaOH+HX\rightarrow NaX+H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of HX

So, moles of monoprotic acid = 0.0225 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and diprotic acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2X\rightarrow 2NaX+2H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of diprotic acid

So, moles of diprotic acid = $\frac{0.0225}{2}=0.01125moles$

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

For butanoic acid:

Mass of butanoic acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of butanoic acid = 88 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of butanoic acid}=\frac{2.002g}{88g/mol}=0.02275mol$

For L-tartaric acid:

Mass of L-tartaric acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of L-tartaric acid = 150 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of L-tartaric acid}=\frac{2.002g}{150g/mol}=0.0133mol$

For ascorbic acid:

Mass of ascorbic acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of ascorbic acid = 176 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of ascorbic acid}=\frac{2.002g}{176g/mol}=0.01137mol$

As, the number of moles of butanoic acid and ascorbic acid is equal to the number of moles of acid getting neutralized.

Hence, the identity of the unknown acid is butanoic acid or ascorbic acid.
