Answer:

Mutarotation refers to the change in the optical rotation or optical activity of a solution due to the change in the equilibrium of the two anomers. It depends upon the optical activity and ratio of the anomeric forms in the solution.

To measure the optical rotation of a given solution, a polarimeter can be used and thus the ratio of the anomeric forms can be calculated.

The number of H atoms = 3.02 x 10²³ atoms.

The number of O atoms = 1.51 x 10²³ atoms.

Explanation:

Question 1:

A) The number of moles of Au in 57.01 g sample:

n = mass / molar mass,

mass = 57.01 g and molar mass = 196.966 g/mol e.

The number of moles of Au in the sample = (57.01 g) / (196.966 g/mole) = 0.289 moles.

B) The number of atoms of Au in the sample:

It is known that every mole of a substance contains Avogadro,s number (NA = 6.023 x 10²³) of molecules.

1.0 mole of Au → 6.023 x 10²³ atoms

0.289 mole of Au → ???? atoms

using cross multiplication:

The number of atoms of Au in the sample = (6.023 x 10²³ x 0.289 mole) / (1.0 mole) = 1.74 x 10²³ atoms.

Question 2:

A) The number of moles of 17.45 g of NaCl:

n = mass / molar mass,

mass = 17.45 g and molar mass = 58.44 g/mole.

The number of moles of NaCl = (17.45 g) / (58.44 g/mole) = 0.298 mole ≅ 0.30 moles.

B) The number of moles of each element in NaCl

NaCl → Na + Cl

Each mole of NaCl contains one mole of Na and one mole of Cl.

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mole NaCl → 1.0 mole Na

0.3 mole NaCl → ??? mole Na

The number of moles of Na atoms in NaCl = (1.0 mole Na x 0.3 mole NaCl) / (1.0 mole NaCl) = 0.3 mole of Na atoms.

by the same way; the number of moles of Cl atoms = (1.0 mole Cl x 0.3 mole NaCl) / (1.0 mole NaCl) = 0.3 mole of Cl atoms.

C) The number of atoms of each element in the sample:

It is known that every mole of a substance contains Avogadro,s number (NA = 6.023 x 10²³) of molecules.

1.0 mole of NaCl → 6.023 x 10²³ molecules

0.3 mole of NaCl → ???? molecules

using cross multiplication:

The number of molecules in 0.3 mole of NaCl = (6.023 x 10²³ x 0.3 mole) / (1.0 mole) = 1.8069 x 10²³ molecules.

Every molecule of NaCl contains one atom of Na and one atom of Cl.

So, it contains 6.023 x 10²³ atoms of both Na and Cl.

Question 3:

A) The number of moles of 7.801 g of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁):

n = mass / molar mass,

mass = 7.801 g and molar mass = 342.3 g/mole.

The number of moles of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) = (7.801 g) / (342.3 g/mol) = 0.022789 mol ≅ 0.0228 moles.

B) The number of moles of each element in sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁):

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ → 12C + 22H + 11O

Each mole of sucrose contains 12 moles of C, 22 moles of H, and 11 moles of O.

using cross multiplication:

1.0 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → 12.0 moles C

0.0228 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → ??? moles C

The number of moles of C atoms in sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) = (12.0 moles C x 0.0228 moles of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁)) / (1.0 mole sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁)) = 0.2763 mole of C atoms.

By the same way; the number of moles of H atoms:

1.0 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → 22.0 moles H

0.0228 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → ??? moles H

The number of moles of H atoms in sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) = (22.0 moles H x 0.0228 moles of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁)) / (1.0 mole sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁)) = 0.5016 mole of H atoms.

Also; the number of moles of O atoms:

1.0 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → 11.0 moles O

0.0228 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → ??? moles O

The number of moles of O atoms in sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) = (11.0 moles H x 0.0228 moles of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁)) / (1.0 mole sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁)) = 0.2508 mole of O atoms.

C) The number of atoms of each element in the sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) sample:

It is known that every mole of a substance contains Avogadro,s number (NA = 6.023 x 10²³) of molecules.

1.0 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → 6.023 x 10²³ molecules

0.0228 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) → ???? molecules

using cross multiplication:

The number of molecules in 0.0228 mole of sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) = (6.023 x 10²³ x 0.0228 mole) / (1.0 mole) = 1.273 x 10²² molecules.

Each molecule of sucrose contains 12 atoms of C, 22 atoms of H, and 11 atoms of O.

So, the number of each atom that the sucrose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) sample contains are:

The number of C atoms = (12 x 1.273 x 10²² molecules) = 1.65 x 10²³ atoms.

The number of H atoms = (22 x 1.273 x 10²² molecules) = 3.02 x 10²³ atoms.

The number of O atoms = (11 x 1.273 x 10²² molecules) = 1.51 x 10²³ atoms.

A boy swings a rubber ball attached to a string over his head in a horizontal, circular path. The piece of string is 1.15 m long

gregori [183]

Answer:

v = 16.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the string, l = 1.15 m

The ball makes 137 complete turns each minute.

We know that, 1 turn = 6.28 rad

137 turns = 860.79 rad

1 min = 60 s

$\omega=\dfrac{860.79\ rad}{60\ s}\\\\=14.34\ rad/s$

We need to find the tangential velocity of the ball. It can be given by

$v=r\omega\\\\=1.15\times 14.34\\\\v=16.49\ m/s$

So, the tangential velocity of the ball is 16.49 m/s.

At what temp will a gas be at if you allow it to expand from an original 456 mL to 65°C to 3.4 L

alexira [117]

We use the gas law named Charle's law for the calculation of the second temperature. The law states that,
V₁T₂ = V₂T₁
Substituting the known values,
(0.456 L)(65 + 273.15) = (3.4 L)(T₁)
T₁ = 45.33 K

Contrast aluminum and nitrogen. Show why aluminum is a metal and nitrogen is not.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Nitrogen: Non- metal = they are poor conductors of heat and electricity, they are brittle solids, not ductile in their solid state - they cannot be rolled into wires or pounded into sheets. They are usually dull and therefore show no metallic luster and they do not reflect light. They also have a low density.

Aluminium: Metal= Offers a rare combination of valuable properties. It is one of the lightest metals in the world: it's almost three times lighter than iron but it's also very strong, extremely flexible and corrosion resistant because its surface is always covered in an extremely thin and yet very strong layer of oxide film. It doesn't magnetise, it's a great electricity conductor and forms alloys with practically all other metals.
