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.

30. a. How do the properties of metals differ from those
Ahat [919]

Explanation:

Metals are elements that ionized by loss of electrons.

Ionic and molecular compounds are usually non-metals.

Properties of metals:

  • Metals have free mobile electrons and the metallic bonding ensures that.
  • They are usually electropositive and freely looses their electrons.
  • None of the metal is soluble without a chemical change occurring.
  • They are ductile and malleable.
  • Metals are good conductor or heat and electricity in their free uncombined state.
  • They are lustrous.

B. The specific property of metals accountable for their unusual electrical conductivity is due to the presence of free mobile electrons in their lattices.

A sample of TNT, C7H5N3O6 , has 8.94 × 1021 nitrogen atoms. How many hydrogen atoms are there in this sample of TNT?
Bess [88]

Answer:

1.49×10²² atoms of H are contained in the sample

Explanation:

TNT → C₇H₅N₃O₆

1 mol of this has 7 moles of C, 5 moles of H, 3 moles of N and 6 moles of O

Let's determine the mass of TNT.

Molar mass is = 227 g/mol

As 1 mol has (6.02×10²³) NA atoms, how many moles are 8.94×10²¹ atoms.

8.94×10²¹ atoms / NA = 0.0148 moles

So this would be the rule of three to determine the mass of TNT

3 moles of N are in 227 g of compound

0.0148 moles of N are contained in (0.0148 .227) / 3 = 1.12 g

Now we can work with the hydrogen.

227 grams of TNT contain 5 moles of H

1.12 grams of TNT would contain (1.12 .5) / 227 = 0.0247 moles

Finally let's convert this moles to atoms:

0.0247 mol . 6.02×10²³ atoms / 1 mol = 1.49×10²² atoms
