Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The IUPAC name of aspirin is 2-Acetoxybenzoic acid. It is composed of an acetoxy moiety and a benzoic acid moiety.

The compound can be hydrolysed under prolonged storage conditions to yield acetic acid which causes the vinegar like odour.

Also, one of the products of this hydrolysis bears a phenol group which reacts with FeCl3 to give a purple color.

What is the density of a bar of lead that weighs 173 g and has the following dimensions: l= 2.00 cm, w = 3.00 cm, h = 1.00 in?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

\rho=7373.2g/cm^3

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the density is defined as the degree of compactness of a substance, and is defined as the mass over the volume:

\rho= \frac{m}{V}

Given the dimensions of the bar of lead, we can compute the volume as shown below:

V=2.00cm*3.00cm*1.00in*\frac{1in}{2.54cm} \\\\V=2.36cm^3

Thus, the density turns out:

\rho=\frac{173g}{2.36cm^3} \\\\\rho=7373.2g/cm^3

Best regards!

What is the empirical formula for propene C3H6
USPshnik [31]

The empirical formula is the simplest formula attainable while maintaining the ratio so it will be CH2.

Explanation:

The empirical formula of a chemical compound is the simplistic positive integer ratio of atoms being in a compound. A simple example of this thought is that the empirical formula of sulfur monoxide, or SO, would simply be SO, as is the empirical formula of disulfur dioxide, S2O2.

For the balanced equation shown below, if 84.7 grams of H2S were reacted with 78.4 grams of O2, how many grams of H2O would be p
Klio2033 [76]
The mass  of  water  is  calculated  as   follows

  find  the  moles  of   each  reagent

that   is   moles =   mass/molar  mass

for  H2s  =  84.7/   34=   2.485  moles
      O2  =  78.4  /   32  =  2.45  moles

since    2  moles  of  H2S  react   with  3  moles  of O2  therefore  2.45  moles   of  oxygen  will  be  used  up  therefore  O2  is  the    limiting   reagent   and  H2S  is  in  excess

2H2S  +  3O2  ----->2So2   +  2H2O

by  use  of   mole   ratio  between  O2  and   H20   which  is  3:2  the   moles of  H2O  is  therefore  =  2.45 x2/3= 1.63  moles  of H2O

mass  of H2O  =  moles   x  molar  mass

=  1.63  g  x  18g/mol  =  29.4   g

insens350 [35]
When carrying out experiment in the laboratory to investigate physical changes, absolute measurement is usually not needed. For instance, one can just take a little sample of sodium chloride and dissolve it in water to demonstrate physical change. But for other experiments, such as the measurement of the catalase enzyme activity in a liver tissue. Careful measurements have to be made when preparing the chemicals that will be used in the experiment.
