Answer:

We have the final answer as

<h2>7.14 %</h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual density = 5.6 g/mL

error = 5.6 - 5.2 = 0.4

The percentage error is

P(\%) =  \frac{0.4}{5.6}  \times 100 \\  = 7.142857...

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.14 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

(1 pt) You have 250.0 mL of 0.136 M HCl. Using a volumetric pipet, you take 25.00 mL of that solution, place it in a 100.00 ml v
alexdok [17]

Answer:

0.034M HCl is the concentration of the diluted solution

Explanation:

You take, initially, 25.00mL of the 0.136M HCl. Then, you dilute the solution to 100.00mL. The solution is diluted:

100.00mL / 25.00mL = 4. The solution was diluted 4 times.

That means the concentration of the diluted solution is:

0.136M / 4 =

jeyben [28]

Answer:

0.054 mol O

Explanation:

<em>This is the chemical formula for acetic acid (the chemical that gives the sharp taste to vinegar): CH₃CO₂H. An analytical chemist has determined by measurements that there are 0.054 moles of carbon in a sample of acetic acid. How many moles of oxygen are in the sample?</em>

<em />

Step 1: Given data

  • Chemical formula of acetic acid: CH₃CO₂H
  • Moles of carbon in the sample: 0.054 moles

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

According to the chemical formula, the molar ratio of C to O is 2:2.

Step 3: Calculate the moles of oxygen in the sample

We will use the molar ratio to determine the moles of oxygen accompanying 0.054 moles of carbon.

0.054 mol C × (2 mol O/2 mol C) = 0.054 mol O

Linolenic acid (C18H30O2 - M.W. = 278.42 g/mol) reacts with hydrogen gas according to the equation: C18H30O2 + 3H2 (g) → C18H36O
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

2.53 L is the volume of H₂ needed

Explanation:

The reaction is: C₁₈H₃₀O₂ + 3H₂ → C₁₈H₃₆O₂

By the way we can say, that 1 mol of linolenic acid reacts with 3 moles of oxygen in order to produce, 1 mol of stearic acid.

By stoichiometry, ratio is 1:3

Let's convert the mass of the linolenic acid to moles:

10.5 g . 1 mol / 278.42 g  = 0.0377 moles

We apply a rule of three:

1 mol of linolenic acid needs 3 moles of H₂ to react

Then, 0.0377 moles will react with (0.0377 . 3 )/1 = 0.113 moles of hydrogen

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume (condition of measure are STP) → P . V = n . R . T → V = ( n . R .T ) / P

V = (0.113 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273.15K) 1 atm = 2.53 L
