Answer:

26 g

Explanation:

Write the balanced reaction first

CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O

9.3g + 52.3g --> ? CO2

You must determine how much carbon dioxide can be made from each of the reactants. The maximum mass that can be made is the lower of the two.

From CH4:

9.3g CH4 (1molCH4/16.05gCH4) (1molCO2 / 1molCH4) (44.01g CH4 / 1molCO2) = 26 g

From O2:

52.3g O2 (1molO2/32gO2) (1molCO2/2molO2)(44.01g/1molCO2) = 36 g

To what volume should you dilute 134 mL of an 8.00 M CuCl2 solution so that 48.0 mL of the diluted solution contains 5.89 g CuCl
Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Number of moles of CuCl2 initially present = volume * molar concentration

= 0.134 * 8

= 1.072 mol.

Molar mass of CuCl2 = 63.5 + (2*35.5)

= 134.5 g/mol

Mass of CuCl2 = molar mass * number of moles

= 134.5 * 1.072

= 144.184 g

Mass of CuCl2 in 48 ml = 5.89 g in 48 ml

Volume = 5.89 * (48/144.184)

= 1.96 ml.

In this experiment, 1-2 mL of saturated sodium chloride is used to transfer the crude product after the initial distillation. Wh
lina2011 [118]

<span>Saturated sodium chloride is used to transfer the product rather than water since it is not polar and rinsing the product with water would revert any 4-methylcyclohexene back to 4-methylcyclohexanol in the Hickman Head and thus lowering the percent yield; using water would shift the equilibrium towards the reactants.  Also sodium chloride removes the small amount of phosphoric acid and also a small amount of water.  If one were to add water, both 4-methylcyclohexene and phosphoric acid are partially soluble making difficult to remove the water later; sodium chloride makes the water less reactive so easier to remove by making the aqueous later more polar.</span>
