You chill your reaction in an ice bath when adding nitric acid to the sulfuric acid. why?

The reaction of nitric acid and sulfuric acid is highly exothermic so it releases a lot of heat. If the temperature is not controlled, the reaction could go into thermal runaway, which is potentially extremely hazardous.

The metabolic oxidation of glucose, C6H12O6, in our bodies produces CO2, which is expelled from our lungs as a gas.
enot [183]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{21.6 L}}

Explanation:

We must do the conversions

mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of CO₂ ⟶ volume of CO₂

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ:        180.16

         C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ⟶ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

m/g:      24.5

(a) Moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

\text{Moles of C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} = \text{24.5 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}{\text{180.16 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}\\\\= \text{0.1360 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}

(b) Moles of CO₂

\text{Moles of CO}_{2} =\text{0.1360 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol CO}_{2}}{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}} = \text{0.8159 mol CO}_{2}

(c) Volume of CO₂

We can use the Ideal Gas Law.

pV = nRT

Data:

p = 0.960 atm

n = 0.8159 mol

T = 37  °C

(i) Convert the temperature to kelvins

T = (37 + 273.15) K= 310.15 K

(ii) Calculate the volume

\begin{array}{rcl}pV &=& nRT\\\text{0.960 atm} \times V & = & \text{0.8159 mol} \times \text{0.082 06 L}\cdot\text{atm}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1} \times \text{310.15 K}\\0.960V & = & \text{20.77 L}\\V & = & \textbf{21.6 L} \\\end{array}\\\text{The volume of carbon dioxide is $\large \boxed{\textbf{21.6 L}}$}

A solution is made by dissolving 10.20 grams of glucose (C6H12O6) in 355 grams of water. What is the freezing point depression o
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

0.297 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the <em>freezing point depression </em>ΔT_f is

ΔT_f = iK_f·b

i is the van’t Hoff factor: the number of moles of particles you get from a solute.

For glucose,

       glucose(s) ⟶ glucose(aq)

1 mole glucose ⟶ 1 mol particles     i = 1

Data:

Mass of glucose = 10.20 g

  Mass of water = 355 g

                 ΔT_f = 1.86 °C·kg·mol⁻¹

Calculations:

(a) <em>Moles of glucose </em>

n = 10.20 g × (1 mol/180.16 g)

  = 0.056 62 mol

(b) <em>Kilograms of water </em>

m = 355 g × (1 kg/1000 g)

   = 0.355 kg

(c) <em>Molal concentration </em>

b = moles of solute/kilograms of solvent

  = 0.056 62 mol/0.355 kg

  = 0.1595 mol·kg⁻¹

(d) <em>Freezing point depression </em>

ΔT_f = 1 × 1.86 × 0.1595

        = 0.297 °C
