How many moles of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen are present in a 100-g sample of ascorbic acid?
Y_Kistochka [10]

There are:

3.41 moles of C

4.54 moles of H

3.40 moles of O.

Why?

To solve the problem, the first thing that we need to do is to write the chemical formula of the ascorbic acid.

C_{6}H_{8}O_{6}

Now, we know that there are 100 grams of the compound, so, the masses of each element will represent the percent in the compound.

We have that:

C_{6}=12.0107g*6=72.08g\\\\H_{8}=1.008g*8=8.064g\\\\O_{6}=15.999g*6=95.994g\\\\C_{6}H_{8}O_{6}=72.08g+8.064g+95.994g=176.138g

To know the percent of each element, we need to to the following:

C=\frac{72.08g}{176.138g}*100=0.409*100=40.92(percent)\\\\H=\frac{8.064g}{176.138g}*100=4.58(percent)\\\\O=\frac{95.994}{176.138g}*100=54.49(percent)

So, we know that for the 100 grams of the compound, there are:

40.92 grams of C

4.58 grams of H

54.49 grams of O

We know the molecular masses of each element:

C=12.0107\frac{g}{mol}\\\\H=1.008\frac{g}{mol}\\\\O=15.999\frac{g}{mol}{mol}

Now, to calculate the number of moles of each element, we need to divide the mass of each element by the molecular mass of each element:

C=\frac{40.92g}{12.010\frac{g}{mol}}=3.41mol\\\\H=\frac{4.58g}{1.008\frac{g}{mol}}=4.54mol\\\\O=\frac{54.49g}{15.999\frac{g}{mol}}=3.40mol

Hence, we have that there are 3.41 moles of C, 4.54 moles of H, and 3.40 moles of O.

Have a nice day!

A shiny chunk of metal is found to have a mass of 37.28g. The metal is dropped into a graduated cylinder which contains 20.0 mL
Amanda [17]

Answer: The density of the material is 2.66 g/mL and it is likely this  is made of Aluminum

Explanation:

The first step to know the material of the chunk of metal is to calculate its density. The general formula for density is P (density) = \frac{m (mass)}{ v (volume)}. Moreover, in this case, it is known the mass is 37.28 g, but the volume is not directly provided. However, we know the water in the graduated cylinder had a volume of 20.0 mL and this increased to 34.0 mL when the chunk of metal is added, this means the volume of the metal is 14 mL (34.0 mL - 20.0 mL = 14 mL). Now let's calculate the density:

P = \frac{37.28g}{14.0mL}

P = 2.66 g/mL

This means the density of this metal is 2.66 g/mL, which can be rounded as 2. 7 g/mL, and according to the chart, this is the density of aluminum. Therefore, this material of this chunk is aluminum.

An iron bar of mass 841 g cools from 84°C to 7°C. Calculate the heat released (in kilojoules) by the metal.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

28.75211 kj

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron bar = 841 g

Initial temperature = 84°C

Final temperature = 7°C

Heat released = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

specific heat capacity of iron is 0.444 j/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 7°C - 84°C

ΔT = -77°C

By putting values,

Q = 841 g × 0.444 j/g.°C × -77°C

Q = 28752.11 j

In Kj:

28752.11 j × 1 kJ / 1000 J

28.75211 kj
