<span>We are given with the equation 3CO(g) + Fe2O3(s) to form Fe(s) + 3CO2(g). To balance the given equation, we do elemental balance and verify each. for C we have 3 moles in each side. For O, we have 6 moles in each side. However for Fe, we have 2 moles in the left and only one mole in the right. Hence, there should be 2 moles of Fe(s) in the balance</span>

We are given the equation 3CO(g) + Fe2O3(s)= Fe(s) + 3CO2(g) and determine the next step in balancing the equation. In this case,C is already balanced. The next step is to balance Fe so we put 2 before Fe (s) to balance the 2 atoms in the left of the equation.

When an unknown amine reacts with an unknown acid chloride, an amide with a molecular mass of 163 g/mol (M = 163 m/z) is formed.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

            As the molecular mass of given amine is 163 g/mol (a odd number) it means that this compound contains a odd number of Nitrogen atoms. We will first apply Rule of Thirteen to get the molecular formula.

Rule of Thirteen:

First divide the parent peak value by 13 as,

                = 163 ÷ 13

                = 12.53

Now, multiply 13 by 12,

                = 13 × 12 (here, 12 specifies number of carbon atoms)

                = 156

Now subtract 156 from 163,

                = 163 - 156

                = 7

Add 7 into 12,

                = 7 + 12

                = 19 (hydrogen atoms)

So, the rough formula we have is,

                                                       C₁₂H₁₉

Now, add one Nitrogen atom to above formula and subtract one Carbon and 2 Hydrogen atoms as these numbers are equal to atomic mass of Nitrogen atom as,

                C₁₂H₁₉   -------N-------->    C₁₁H₁₇N

Also, as shown in ¹³C-NMR there is one peak around 180 ppm and the peak at 1661 cm⁻¹ in IR spectrum is characteristic to carbonyl group hence, we will add one oxygen atom to the chemical formula accordingly. i.e.

                C₁₁H₁₇N   -------O-------->    C₁₀H₁₃NO

Molecular Formula: C₁₀H₁₃NO

Also,

In NMR the the four peaks around 120 ppm are assigned to a mono substituted benzene ring.

The absence of IR peak above 3200 cm⁻³ also confirms that the amine is tertiary in nature and there is no hydrogen attached to the nitrogen atom.

It can be observed that the peaks in upfield are duplicating. This can be due to the presence of rotamers of said compound.

The most plausible structure for given data is shown below, and the resonance structure along with rotamers are also shown.

How is the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from the chemical formula ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.

We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.

The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.

To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:

  • The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
  • The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to  the charge on the ion.

For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻

This would be:  2x + 7(-2) = -2

                          x = +6

We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.

2. A quantity of 1.922g of methanol (CH3OH) was burned in a constant-volume
Cerrena [4.2K]
Mass of methanol (CH3OH) = 1.922 g
Change in Temperature (t) = 4.20°C
Heat capacity of the bomb plus water = 10.4 KJ/oC
The heat absorbed by the bomb and water is equal to the product of the heat capacity and the temperature change.
Let’s assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings. First, let’s calculate the heat changes in the calorimeter. This is calculated using the formula shown below:
qcal = Ccalt
Where, qcal = heat of reaction
Ccal = heat capacity of calorimeter
t = change in temperature of the sample
Now, let’s calculate qcal:
qcal = (10.4 kJ/°C)(4.20°C)
= 43.68 kJ
Always qsys = qcal + qrxn = 0,
qrxn = -43.68 kJ
The heat change of the reaction is - 43.68 kJ which is the heat released by the combustion of 1.922 g of CH3OH. Therefore, the conversion factor is:
