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 = 0,1122 g of C ≡ 112,2mg of C

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

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!

A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.) a. an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction your eye, b. c

DENIUS [597]

Correct Question:

A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.)

- a piece of french fry contaminating the reaction mixture

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

-in this experiment, nitrate ion

- your eye, carefully watching the progress of the reaction

Answer:

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

Explanation:

A spectator ion is an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation. A spectator ion is one that exists in the same form on both the reactant and product sides of a chemical reaction.

Spectator ions are ions that are present in a solution but don't take part in the reaction. When reactants dissociate into ions, some of the ions may combine to form a new compound. The other ions don't take part in this chemical reaction and are therefore called spectator ions.

The correct option is therefore the option;

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

Match the correct definition with the correct term from questions 10-13: A. Internal energy B. Latent heat C. Chemical (bond) en

Marizza181 [45]

Answer: A. Internal energy : May be viewed as the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of the molecules

B. Latent heat: The internal energy associated with the phase of a system.

C. Chemical (bond) energy : The internal energy associated with the atomic bonds in a molecule

D. Nuclear energy : The internal energy associated with the bonds within the nucleus of the atom itself

Explanation:

Internal energy is defined as the total energy of a closed system. Internal energy is the sum of potential energy of the system and the kinetic energy of the system. It is represented by symbol U.

Latent heat is the thermal energy released or absorbed by a thermodynamic system when the temperature of the system does not change. It is thus also called as hidden heat.

Chemical energy is the energy stored in the bonds of molecules.

Nuclear energy is the energy which is stored in the nucleus of an atom called as binding energy within protons and neutrons.
