<span>Butanethiol is chemically classified among the thiols, which are organic compounds with molecular formulas and structural formulas similar to alcohols, except that sulfur-containing sulfhydryl group (-SH) replaces the oxygen-containing hydroxyl group (-OH) in the molecule. Butanethiol's basic molecular formula is C4H9SH, and its structural formula is similar to that of the alcohol n-butanol. Butanethiol is prepared by the free radical catalyzed addition of hydrogen sulfide to 1-butene. Commercially, this is performed using ultraviolet light. Butanethiol is a thiol of low molecular weight, and it is highly flammable.</span>

What causes water to increase in density?
murzikaleks [220]

Explanation:

temperature changes affect seawater density as water cools its density increases. As water cools H2O molecules pack more closely together because the molecules are vibrating less at low temperatures and take up less volume. The same number of water molecules in smaller volume results higher density

Ammonia can be produced in the laboratory by heating ammonium chloride
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Mass = 2.89 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of NH₄Cl = 8.939 g

Mass of Ca(OH)₂ = 7.48 g

Mass of ammonia produced = ?

Solution:

2NH₄Cl   +  Ca(OH)₂     →    CaCl₂ + 2NH₃ + 2H₂O

Number of moles of NH₄Cl:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 8.939 g / 53.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.17 mol

Number of moles of Ca(OH)₂ :

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 7.48 g / 74.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.10 mol

Now we will compare the moles of ammonia with both reactant.

                      NH₄Cl          :          NH₃

                          2              :           2

                         0.17          :          0.17

                   Ca(OH)₂         :          NH₃

                        1                :           2

                    0.10              :          2/1×0.10 = 0.2 mol

Less number of moles of ammonia are produced by ammonium chloride it will act as limiting reactant.

Mass of ammonia:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.17 mol × 17 g/mol

Mass = 2.89 g

The American Heart Association recommends to eat no more than 2,301mg of sodium per day. Convert the mass of
castortr0y [4]

The mass of 2,301 grams of sodium in ounces is 0.0811757609 ounces.

The amount of sodium recommended by American heart association is 2301 mg. This limit should not be crossed in a day.

We have to convert Mass of sodium from mg to ounces.

We know,

1 ounce = 28.3459 grams.

We also know,

1 gram = 1000 milligrams.

So,

28.3459 grams = 28.3459 x 1000 milligrams.

28.3459 grams = 28345.9 milligrams.

1 ounce = 28345.9 mg.

1 mg = 1/28345.9 ounces

Weight of sodium 2301mg in ounces,

2301mg = 2301/28345.9 ounces

Dividing till last significant figure,

2301 mg = 0.0811757609 ounces.

Mass of sodium in ounces is 0.0811757609.
