Assuming the conditions of the reaction are maintained and appropriate for the reaction to still occur, the reaction rate can be affected by increasing the concentration of the reagents used in a reaction. It will speed it up.
Just add up the molar masses of each element.
Molar mass of C: 12.011 g/mol
The equation says C20, which means there are 20 carbon atoms in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we multiply 12.011 by 20 to get 240.22 g/mol carbon.
Molar mass of H: 1.0079 g/mol
The equation says C30, which means there are 30 hydrogen atoms in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we multiply 1.0079 by 30 to get 30.237 g/mol hydrogen.
Molar mass of O: 15.999 g/mol
The equation says O without a number, which means there is only one oxygen atom in each molecule of Vitamin A. So, we leave O at 15.999 g/mol.
Then, just add it up:
240.22 g/mol C + 30.237 g/mol H + 15.999 g/mol O = 286.456 g/mol C20H30O
So, the molar mass of Vitamin A, C20H30O, is approximately 286.5 g/mol.
Answer:
0.51
Explanation:
Given the Nernst equation;
E= E° - 0.0592/n logQ
E= 355 mV or 0.355 V
E° = 0.34 - 0= 0.34 V
n= 2(two electrons were transferred in the process)
Equation of the reaction;
H2(g) + Cu^2+(aq) -----> 2H^+(aq) + Cu(s)
Substituting values;
0.355 = 0.34 - 0.0592/2 log([H^+]/1)
0.355 - 0.34 = - 0.0296 log [H^+]
0.015/-0.0296 = log [H^+]
Antilog (-0.5068) = [H^+]
[H^+] = 0.311 M
pH = -log[H^+]
pH= - log(0.311 M)
pH = 0.51
If the element is oxidized, then it's oxidation number would increase.
Let's say we have the following reaction.
2H2O --> O2 + 2H2
To the left, the oxidation number of O is -2, as it is bonded to two H, which is always H+. To the right, we have O2, and all gases have a oxidation number of 0 (zero). We say that O has been oxidized.
