Chopping onions makes you cry because when you cut into an onion you break its cells. this releases sulfenic acids, which lead t

o the production of a powerful gas called propanethiol sulfur oxide. when this gas reaches your eyes, it reacts with the water in your tears to produce sulfuric acid.

if a solution is saturated, how does the rate of dissolution of a solute compare with it's rate of crystallization?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The same

Explanation:

In a saturated solution, the rate of dissolution is equal and the same to the rate of crystallization.

  • A saturated solution of as substance (solute) at a particular temperature is one which contains the maximum amount of the substance that can dissolve at that temperature  in the presence of the crystals of the substance.
  • It is an equilibrium system in which a solid substance is in equilibrium with its own ions in solution.
  • Therefore the rate of dissolution will the same with that of crystallization.

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: 2NH3 (g) N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) Le Châtelier's principle predicts that the moles of H2
Lilit [14]

Answer:

A decrease in the total volume of the reaction vessel (T constant)

Explanation:

  • Le Châtelier's principle predicts that the moles of H2 in the reaction container will increase with a decrease in the total volume of the reaction vessel.
  • <em><u>According to the Le Chatelier's principle, when a chnage is a applied to a system at equilibrium, then the equilibrium will shift in a way that counteracts the effect causing it.</u></em>
  • In this case, a decrease in volume means there is an increase in pressure, therefore the equilibrium will shift towards the side with the fewer number of moles of gas.

in example 5.11 of the text the molar volume of n2 at STP is given as 22.42 L/mol how is this number calculatd how does the mola
Valentin [98]

Answer:

V = 22.42 L/mol

N₂ and H₂ Same molar Volume at STP

Explanation:

Data Given:

molar volume of N₂ at STP = 22.42 L/mol

Calculation of molar volume of N₂ at STP  = ?

Comparison of molar volume of H₂ and N₂ = ?

Solution:

Molar Volume of Gas:

The volume occupied by 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure and it is always equal to 22.42 L/ mol

Molar volume can be calculated by using ideal gas formula  

                               PV = nRT

Rearrange the equation for Volume

                            V = nRT / P . . . . . . . . . (1)

where

P = pressure

V = Volume

T= Temperature

n = Number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

Standard values

P = 1 atm

T = 273 K

n = 1 mole

R = 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K

Now put the value in formula (1) to calculate volume for 1 mole of N₂

                   V = 1 x 273 K x 0.08206 L.atm / mol. K / 1 atm

                   V = 22.42 L/mol

Now if we look for the above calculation it will be the same for H₂ or any gas. so if we compare the molar volume of 1 mole N₂ and H₂ it will be the same at STP.

The compound methyl butanoate smells like apples. Its percent composition is 58.8% C, 9.9% H, and 31.4% O. What’s the empirical
blsea [12.9K]
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:

58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C

9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H

31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O

Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:

4.9/1.96 = 2.5

9.9/1.96 = 6

1.96/1.96 = 1

Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.

So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.
