Answer:

B. NO₂, nitrogen dioxide

Explanation:

Nitrogen dioxide is one of the oxides of nitrogen. It reacts highly and is very harmful for the health of humans. It is regarded as one of the pollutants of the air pollution. The chemical formula of Nitrogen dioxide is NO₂. This gas is produced during the manufacturing of the fertilizers in the industries. Burning of the fossil fuels also contribute in the emission of nitrogen dioxide. Two atoms of oxygen when reacts with one atom of Nitrogen, Nitrogen dioxide is formed.

Why do you move the .0100 - x to the left side of the equal sign?

dlinn [17]

Because negatives are on the left and positives are on the right , if it was .0100 +x it would move to the right since +x implies that the x is positive.

Gaseous butane, CH3(CH2)2CH, reacts with gaseous oxygen gas, O2, to produce gaseous carbon dioxide, CO2, and gaseous water, H2O.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Percentage yield of carbon dioxide is 49.9%

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2CH3(CH2)2CH3 + 13O2 —> 8CO2 + 10H2O

2C4H10 + 13O2 —> 8CO2 + 10H2O

Next, we shall determine the masses of butane and oxygen that reacted and the mass of carbon dioxide produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of butane C4H10 = (12×4) + (10×1)

= 48 + 10

= 58 g/mol

Mass of C4H10 from the balanced equation = 2 × 58 = 116 g

Molar mass of O2 = 16 × 2 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O2 from the balanced equation = 13 × 32 = 416 g

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (16×2)

= 12 + 32

= 44 g/mol

Mass of CO2 from the balanced equation = 8 × 44 = 352 g

Summary:

From the balanced equation above,

116 g of butane reacted with 416 g of oxygen to produce 352 g of carbon dioxide.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

116 g of butane reacted with 416 g of oxygen.

Therefore, 34.29 g of butane will react with = (34.29 × 416) / 116 = 122.97 g of oxygen.

From the calculation made above, we can see clearly that only 122.97 g out of 165.7 g of oxygen reacted completely with 34.29 g of butane. Therefore, butane is the limiting reactant and oxygen is the excess reactant.

Next, we shall determine the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide.

In this case, we shall use the limiting reactant because it will give the maximum yield of carbon dioxide as all of it is used up in the reaction.

The limiting reactant is butane and the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

116 g of butane reacted to produce 352 g of carbon dioxide.

Therefore, 34.29 g of butane will react to produce = (34.29 × 352) / 116 = 104.05 g of carbon dioxide.

Therefore, the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide is 104.05 g

Finally, we shall determine the percentage yield of carbon dioxide as follow:

Actual yield of carbon dioxide = 51.9 g

Theoretical yield of carbon dioxide = 104.05 g

Percentage yield of carbon dioxide =?

Percentage yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield of carbon dioxide = 51.9 / 104.05 × 100

Percentage yield of carbon dioxide = 49.9%

Calculate the concentration of formate in a 100mm solution of formic acid at ph 4.15. The pka for formic acid is 3.75

MissTica

The molarity of formic acid is 100 mM or $100\times 10^{-3}M$ . The dissociation reaction of formic acid is as follows:

$HCOOH\leftrightharpoons HCOO^{-}+H^{+}$

The expression for dissociation constant of the reaction will be:

$K_{a}=\frac{[HCOO^{-}][H^{+}]}{[HCOOH]}$

Rearranging,

$[HCOO^{-}]=\frac{K_{a}[HCOOH]}{[H^{+}]}$

Here, pH of solution is 4.15 thus, concentration of hydrogen ion will be:

$[H^{+}]=10^{-pH}=10^{-4.15}=7.08\times 10^{-5}M$

Similarly, $pK_{a}=3.75$ thus,

$[K_{a}=10^{-pK_{a}}=10^{-3.75}=1.78\times 10^{-4}M$

Putting the values,

$[HCOO^{-}]=\frac{(1.78\times 10^{-4}M)(100\times 10^{-3}M)}{(7.08\times 10^{-5}M}=0.2511 M$

Therefore, the concentration of formate will be 0.2511 M.
