What is the empirical formula of a compound that contains 6.10 g of hydrogen and 28 g of nitrogen?

Chemistry

Viktor [21]3 years ago

Answer:

NH₃

Explanation:

mass H = 6.10 grams

mass N = 28.00 grams

mass cpd = (6.10 + 28.00)grams = 34.10 grams

%H/100wt = (6.10/34.10)100% = 17.9% w/w

%N/100wt = (28.00/34.1)100% = 82.1% w/w

%/100wt => grams/100wt => moles => ratio => reduce => emp ratio

%H/100wt = 17.9% w/w => 17.9g => (17.9/1)moles = 17.9 moles H

%N/100wt = 82.1% w/w => 82.1g => (82.1/14)moles = 5.9 moles N

Ratio N:H => 17.9 : 5.9

Reduce mole ratio (divide by smaller mole value) => 17.9/5.9 : 5.9/5.9

=> 3HY:1H empirical ratio => empirical formula NH₃ (ammonia)

Benzaldehyde and benzyl alcohol can be distinguished by NMR. The proton on the aldehyde group will appear at approximately _____
Tanya [424]

Answer:

9-10 ppm.

0.2-0.4 ppm.

Explanation:

The proton on the aldehyde group will appear at approximately 9-10 ppm whereas the methylene peak on the alcohol is the only peak 0.2-0.4 ppm for either compound. Aldehydes and aromatics are quite distinctive in the Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Aldehydes show up from 9-10 ppm, usually as a small singlet; aromatic protons show up from 6.5-8.5 ppm. NMR spectroscopy is the use of NMR to study the physical, chemical, and biological properties of matter.

Write a balanced net ionic equation for the following double replacement reaction
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ BaSO₄(s)  

Explanation:

There are three steps you must follow. You must write the:

  • Molecular equation
  • Ionic equation
  • Net ionic equation

A. Molecular equation

BaCl₂(aq) + Na₂SO₄(aq) ⟶ BaSO₄(s) + 2NaCl(aq)

B. Ionic equation

You write all the soluble substances as ions.

Ba²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) + 2Na⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ BaSO₄(s) + 2Na⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

C. Net ionic equation

To get the net ionic equation, you cancel the ions that appear on each side of the ionic equation.

Ba²⁺(aq) + <u>2Cl⁻(aq) </u>+ <u>2Na⁺(aq</u>) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ BaSO₄(s) + <u>2Na⁺(aq)</u> + <u>2Cl⁻(aq) </u>

The net ionic equation is

Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) ⟶ BaSO₄(s)

Which of the following equalities is not correct?
Kryger [21]

1cm^3 = 1L would be the correct answer. One cubic centimeter equals .001 liter, so this equality above is not correct.

Please let me know if you have any questions! :)

To answer this question, you need to know <span>Graham's Law of Effusion/Diffusion formula. In this formula, the rate of diffusion/effusion would be influenced by the mass. As the molecule has bigger mass, the rate should be slower because it will be harder to pass the membrane. The calculation should be:</span>

What type of chemical bond would form between an atom of lithium (Li) and an atom of chlorine (Cl). Explain specifically why thi
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Explanation:

  • When a bond is formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.

An ionic bond is generally formed by a metal and a non-metal.

For example, lithium is an alkali metal with atomic number 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1.

And, chlorine is a non-metal with atomic number 17 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 7.

So, in order to complete their octet lithium needs to lose an electron and chlorine needs to gain an electron.

Hence, both of then on chemically combining together results in the formation of an ionic compound that is, lithium chloride (LiCl).

An ionic compound is formed by LiCl because lithium has donated its valence electron to the chlorine atom.  

  • On the other hand, if a bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms then it is known as a covalent bond.

For example, O_{2} is a covalent compound as electrons are being shared by each oxygen atom.
