Answer: 4.96 moles

Explanation:

C5H12 is the chemical formula for pentane, the fifth member of the alkane family.

Given that,

number of moles of C5H12 = ?

Mass in grams = 357.4 g

Molar mass of C5H12 = ?

To get the molar mass of C5H12, use the atomic mass of carbon = 12g; and Hydrogen = 1g

i.e C5H12 = (12 x 5) + (1 x 12)

= 60g + 12g

= 72g/mol

Now, apply the formula

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 357.4g / 72g/mol

= 4.96 moles

Thus, 4.96 moles of C5H12 that are contained in 357.4 g of the compound.

The volume of a gas at 17.5 psi decreases from 1.8L to 750mL. What is the new pressure of the gas in arm?

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 1.8 L

Final volume = 750 mL

Initial pressure = 17.5 Psi

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

We will convert the units first:

Initial pressure = 17.5 /14.696 = 1.2 atm

Final volume = 750 mL ×1L/1000L = 0.75 L

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.2 atm × 1.8 L = P₂ ×0.75 L

P₂ = 2.16 atm. L/ 0.75 L

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Which statement is true for the given reaction? Na2SO4(aq) + Mg(s) →

Arlecino [84]

Answer is: no reaction occurs.
No reaction occurs because magnesium (Mg) is less reactive than sodium (Na). Sodium is higher in activity series of metals and can not be reduced. <span> Metal X will replace another metal Y in a solution if X is higher in the activity series. </span>

Electroplating is a way to coat a complex metal object with a very thin (and hence inexpensive) layer of a precious metal, such

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

0.0164 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of silver (I) to silver that occurs in the cathode during the electroplating.

Ag⁺(aq) + 1 e⁻ → Ag(s)

We can establish the following relations.

1 A = 1 C/s
The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant)
1 mole of Ag(s) is deposited when 1 mole of electrons circulate.
The molar mass of silver is 107.87 g/mol

The mass of silver deposited when a current of 0.770 A circulates during 19.0 seconds is:

$19.0s \times \frac{0.770c}{s} \times \frac{1mole^{-} }{96,468C} \times \frac{1molAg}{1mole^{-}} \times \frac{107.87g}{1molAg} = 0.0164 g$

Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)$

Calculate the amount of $CO_{2}$ dissolved as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

It is given that $K_{CO_{2}}$ = 0.032 M/atm and $P_{CO_{2}}$ = $1.9 \times 10^{-4}$ atm.

Hence, $[CO_{2}]$ will be calculated as follows.

$[CO_{2}]$ = $K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

= $0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm$

= $0.0608 \times 10^{-4}$

or, = $0.608 \times 10^{-5}$

It is given that $K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}$

As, $K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}$

$4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}$

$[H^{+}]^{2}$ = $2.71 \times 10^{-12}$

$[H^{+}]$ = $1.64 \times 10^{-6}$

Since, we know that pH = $-log [H^{+}]$

So, pH = $-log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})$

= 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.
