Answer:

Filtration method

Explanation:

Filtration is a separation method used to separate out pure substances in mixtures comprised of particles some of which are large enough in size to be captured with a porous material. Particle size can vary considerably, given the type of mixture. For instance, a mixture of boiled pasta and water.

An unknown amount of mercury (II) oxide was decomposed in the lab. Mercury metal was formed and 5.20 L of oxygen was released at

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

68.3g

Explanation:

1. Word equation:

mercury(II) oxide → mercury + oxygen

2. Balanced molecular equation:

2HgO → 2Hg + O₂(g)

3. Mole ratio

Write the ratio of the coefficients of the substances that are object of the problem:

$2molHgO/1molO_2$

4. Calculate the number of moles of O₂(g)

Use the equation for ideal gases:

$pV=nRT\\\\\\n=\dfrac{pV}{RT}\\\\\\n=\dfrac{0.970atm\times5.20L}{0.08206atm.L/K.mol\times 390.0K}\\\\\\n=0.1576mol$

5. Calculate the number of moles of HgO

$\dfrac{2molHgO}{1molO_2}\times 0.1576molO_2=0.315molHgO$

6. Convert to mass

mass = # moles × molar mass

molar mass of HgO: 216.591g/mol

mass = 0.315mol × 216.591g/mol = 68.3g

Draw the product that valine forms when it reacts with excess CH3CH2OH and HCl followed by a wash with aqueous base.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Product: ethyl L-valinate

Explanation:

If we want to understand what it is the molecule produced we have to analyze the reagents. We have valine an amino acid, in this kind of compounds we have an amine group ( $NH_2$ ) and a carboxylic acid group ( $COOH$ ). Additionally, we have an alcohol ( $CH_3CH_2OH$ ) in the presence of HCl (a strong acid) in the first step, and a base ( $OH^-$ ).

When we have an acid and an alcohol in a vessel we will have an esterification reaction. In other words, an ester is produced. As the first step, the oxygen in the C=O (in the carboxylic acid group) would be protonated. In the second step, the ethanol attacks the carbon in the C=O of the carboxylic acid group producing a new bond between the oxygen in the ethanol and the carbon in the carboxylic acid. In step 3, a proton is transferred to produce a better leaving group ( $H_2O$ ). In step 4, a water molecule leaves the main structure to produce again the double bond C=O. Finally, a base ( $OH^-$ ) removes the hydrogen from the C=O bond to produce ethyl L-valinate

three moles of sodium carbonate are mixed with two moles of lead nitrate in aqueous solution, leading to formation of a solid pr

aleksandrvk [35]

There are 4 moles of spectator ions that remain in solution.

The equation of the reaction is;

Na2CO3(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -------> PbCO3(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

We have to determine the limiting reactant. This is the reactant that yields the least amount of product. Note that the spectator ions are Na^+ and NO3^- that form NaNO3.

For Na2CO3

1 mole of Na2CO3 yields 2 moles of NaNO3

3 moles of Na2CO3 yields 3 × 2/1 = 6 moles of NaNO3

For Pb(NO3)2

1 mole of Pb(NO3)2 yields 2 moles of NaNO3

2 moles of Pb(NO3)2 yields 2 × 2/1 = 4 moles of NaNO3

We can see that Pb(NO3)2 is the limiting reactant.

Since [NaNO3] = [Na^+] = [NO3^-], it follows that there are 4 moles of spectator ions that remain in solution.
