4C₃H₅(NO₃)₃_{(l)} ------> 12CO₂_{(g)} + 6N₂_{(g)} +  10H₂O_{(g)}  +  O₂_{(g)}

mol of CO₂  =  \frac{mass}{molar mass}

                    =  \frac{25g}{44.01 g/mol}

mol ratio of  CO₂ :  C₃H₅(NO₃)₃

                    12    :     4

∴  if  mole of CO₂  =  0.568 mol

then   "       "   C₃H₅(NO₃)₃  =  \frac{0.568 mol}{12}  *  4

                                           = 0.189 mol


∴ mass of nitroglycerin  =  mole  *  Mr

                                       =  0.189 mol  *  227.0995 g / mol

                                       =  43.00 g

When a compound is dissolved in hot ethanol during a recrystallization, what is changing on a molecular level? The intermolecula
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The intermolecular forces between the solute and solvent.

Explanation:

When you are heating a solvent, the intermolecular forces are reduced because the distances between molecules are large. Thus, in a solution where solvent is hot the intermolecular forces between solute and solvent are lower than those solutions where solvent is in room temperature.

The covalent bonds do not change because this mean a chemical reaction that doesn't occur in a solution.

Usually solid solutes melts in a higher temperature than boiling point in solvents. Thus, a compound normally doesn't melt in a hot solvent.

I hope it helps!

When metal atoms bond with nonmetal atoms, what will the non metal atoms do?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons from a metal atom to a non-metal atom until the outer shells of their resultant atoms are similar to that of a noble gas. The metals lose electrons and form cations while the non-metals accept the electrons and form anions.
