An herbicide contains only C, H, Cl, and N. The complete combustion of a 200.0 mg sample of the herbicide in excess oxygen produ
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

%C = 56,1%

%H = 5,5%

%Cl = 27,6%

%N = 10,8%

Explanation:

The moles of CO₂ are the same than moles of C in the herbicide.

Moles of H₂O are ¹/₂ of moles of H in the herbicide.

Moles of CO₂ are obtained using:

n = PV/RT

Where, in STP: P is 1 atm; V is 0,2092L; R is 0,082atmL/molK; T is 273 K

moles of CO₂ are: 9,345x10⁻³ mol≡ mol of C×12,01g/mol = <em>0,1122 g of C ≡ 112,2mg of C</em>

In the same way, moles of H₂O are 5,450x10⁻³mol×2 =0,1090 mol of H×1,01g/mol = <em>0,0110 g of H ≡ 11,0mg of H</em>

As you have 55,14 mg of Cl, the mg of N are:

200,0mg - 112,2 mg of C - 11,0 mg of H - 55,14 mg of Cl = 21,66 mg of N

Thus, precent composition of the herbicide is:

%C = \frac{112,2 mgC}{200,0mg}×100 = 56,1%C

%H = \frac{11,0 mgH}{200,0mg}×100 = 5,5%H

%Cl = \frac{55,14 mgCl}{200,0mg}×100 = 27,6%Cl

%N = \frac{21,66 mgN}{200,0mg}×100 = 10,8%N

I hope it helps!

The leaves of the rhubarb plant contain high concentrations of diprotic oxalic acid (hooccooh) and must be removed before the st
Andrei [34K]
First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2  so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄      ⇄     H⁺   + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M            0          0
0.0356 - x            x          x
Ka1 = \frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]} = x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6
