A mysterious white powder is found at a crime scene. A simple chemical analysis concludes that the powder is a mixture of sugar

and morphine (C17H19NO3), a weak base similar to ammonia. The crime lab takes 10.00 mg of the mysterious white powder, dissolves it in 100.00 mL water, and titrates it to the equivalence point with 2.84 mL of a standard 0.0100 M HCl solution. What is the percentage of morphine in the white powder?
a. 8.10%
b. 17.3%
c. 32.6%
d. 49.7%
e. 81.0%

Answer:

e. 81.0%

Explanation:

Morphine has Molar mass = 285.34 g/mol

Also, number of males of Morphine = Number of moles of HCl

(At equivalence point )

Now, number of moles of HCl = Molarity × volume

=0.01 mol × 2.84×10^(-3) L

= 2.84×10^(-5) mol

therefore number of moles of morphine= 2.85×10^(-5)

Mass of Morphine= No. of moles × molar mass

= 2.84×10^(-5)×285.34 g/mol

= 0.0081 g

= 8.1 mg

therefore

percentage of morphine = mass of morphine/ mass of powder×100%

= 8.1/10×100% = 81.0%

hence option e is correct.

Let's say that you were given the following
mezya [45]

Answer:

V2~0.4839M

Explanation:

We're going to use Boyles law to answer the question.

Boyle's law:

P1V1=P2V2

P1=151mmHg

P2=166mmHg

V1=0.532L

V2=?

V2=(P1 x V1)/P2

V2=(151 x 0.532)/166

V2~0.4839M

Hope it helps:)

Wood is made mostly of cellulose and has a chemical formula of C6H1005. Which of
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Answer below

Explanation:

First to show combustion, you use O₂.

So   C₆H₁₀O₅ +  O₂ is the reaction.  Assuming complete combustion, all you get as products are CO₂ and H₂O.  Then you have to balance the full reaction.

C₆H₁₀O₅  +  6O₂  ----->  6CO₂  +  5H₂O

6 Carbons on each side

10 Hydrogens on each side

17 Oxygens on each side

Answer:

The correct matching of the air mass and the letters in the word bank are given as follows;

1. Warm and humid                   ↔       D

2. Extremely cold and dry        ↔       B

3. Cold and dry                         ↔       A

4. Cold and humid                    ↔       C

5. Warm and dry                       ↔        E

Where;

A Represents continental polar

B Represents Artic

C Represents Maritime Polar

D Represents Maritime Tropical

E Represents Continental Tropical

Explanation:

A. A continental polar is one that can be described as a cold and dry climate as the region is located at a further away from the oceanic water bodies that add humidity to the climate

B. The regions of the Artic and the Antarctic have very limited amount of precipitation every year because the air is very cold as well as dry

C. A polar climate is a cold climate region, while a maritime climate is humid.

Therefore, the maritime polar climate combines both cold and humid conditions

D. A warm and humid region has high rainfall and humidity, as such the maritime climate which are humid and the tropical climate, which are warm, combine to give a warm and humid climate

E. The continental tropical climate can be described as warm and dry, compared to the continental water bodies, due to the location being distant from and therefore, the absence of high moisture containing wind that comes from the oceans.
