How many grams of copper (II) nitrate would be produced from 0.80 g of copper metal reacting with excess nitric acid?

Answer:

m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the chemical reaction between copper and nitric acid is:

2HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2

By starting with 0.80 g of copper metal (molar mass = 63.54 g/mol) and considering the 1:1 mole ratio between copper and copper (II) nitrate (molar mass = 187.56 g/mol) we can compute that mass via stoichiometry as shown below:

m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=0.80gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.54gCu} *\frac{1molCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu} *\frac{187.56gCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu(NO_3)_2} \\\\m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2

However, the real reaction between copper and nitric acid releases nitrogen oxide, yet it does not modify the calculations since the 1:1 mole ratio is still there:

4HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2H_2O+2NO_2

Best regards!

Reduction occurs at which electrode?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The electrode that removes ions from solution

Explanation:

Each electrochemical cell consists of an anode and a cathode. Oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.

At the anode, ions move from the electrode into the solution while at the cathode ions move from the solution to the electrode.

At the cathode, metal ions accept electron(s) and become deposited on the electrode hence this electrode removes ions from solution. This is reduction.

What is the molecular formula of a compound with the empirical formula
ipn [44]

Answer:  C_2H_2O_2

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The empirical formula is CHO

The empirical weight of CHO = 1(12)+1(1)+1(16)= 29 g.

The molecular weight = 60 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula:

n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{60}{29}=2

The molecular formula will be=2\times CHO=C_2H_2O_2

Thus molecular formula will be C_2H_2O_2

A student is given a 2.002 g sample of unknown acid and is told that it might be butanoic acid, a monoprotic acid (HC4H7O2, equa
Elina [12.6K]

<u>Answer:</u> The identity of the unknown acid is butanoic acid or ascorbic acid.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.570 M

Volume of solution = 39.55 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.570M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}\times 1000}{39.55}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=\frac{0.570\times 39.55}{1000}=0.0225mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and monoprotic acid follows:

NaOH+HX\rightarrow NaX+H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of HX

So, moles of monoprotic acid = 0.0225 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and diprotic acid follows:

2NaOH+H_2X\rightarrow 2NaX+2H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of diprotic acid

So, moles of diprotic acid = \frac{0.0225}{2}=0.01125moles

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

  • <u>For butanoic acid:</u>

Mass of butanoic acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of butanoic acid = 88 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of butanoic acid}=\frac{2.002g}{88g/mol}=0.02275mol

  • <u>For L-tartaric acid:</u>

Mass of L-tartaric acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of L-tartaric acid = 150 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of L-tartaric acid}=\frac{2.002g}{150g/mol}=0.0133mol

  • <u>For ascorbic acid:</u>

Mass of ascorbic acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of ascorbic acid = 176 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of ascorbic acid}=\frac{2.002g}{176g/mol}=0.01137mol

As, the number of moles of butanoic acid and ascorbic acid is equal to the number of moles of acid getting neutralized.

Hence, the identity of the unknown acid is butanoic acid or ascorbic acid.

g Where, approximately, is the negative pole on each of these molecules? Lewis structure for C O F 2. A central C atom is single
seropon [69]

The molecule with higher dipole moment is COFH because the geometry of the molecule in the COF2 nearly cancel the dipolar moment of each other. To be more clear:

The dipolar moment is the vectorial sum of all bond moments in the molecule or dipolar moment of each bond. The dipolar moment of a molecule with three or more atoms is determined by bond polarity as their geometry.

COF2 has a trigonal planar structure which are symmetric. The electronegativity of oxygen is slightly different regarding fluor. So as you can see in the image, the electronic density is specially displaced to the fluor atoms, but either to the oxygen atom.

COFH has a trigonal structure but differs from COF2 because there is an hydrogen who is donating it's electronic density, so in this zone the electronic density is less than over oxygen or fluor. That makes bond angles be different between them.
