Chemistry
1 answer:
olga_2 [115]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

62.07 %

Explanation:

Chemical Formula =  (CH3)2CO = C3H6O

Mass of C = 12 g/mol

Mass of H = 1 g/mol

Mass of O = 12 g/mol

Mass of  C3H6O = 3(12) + 6(1) + 16 = 58 g/mol

Total mass of C in Acetone = 12 * 3 = 36 g

Mass Percent of C =  Total mass of C / Mass of Acetone   *  100

Mass percent = 36 / 58    *  100

Mass percent = 62.07 %

Bronze is an alloy made of mostly copper (Cu) and tin (Sn). What type of bond forms bronze?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A. Metallic bond

Explanation:

Think about it: copper and tin are both common metals. That's how we know it's a metallic bond!

Why not B: Covalent bonds are between two nonmetals.

Why not C: Ionic bonds are between a nonmetal and a metal.

Why not D: Paired bond isn't a common phrase in chemistry.

Calculate the molar solubility of CaF2 at 25°C in a solution that is 0.010 M in Ca(NO3)2. The Ksp for CaF2 is 3.9 x 10-11.
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the dissociation of calcium fluoride:

CaF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2F^-

The equilibrium expression is:

Ksp=[Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2

In such a way, via the ICE procedure, including an initial concentration of calcium of 0.01 M (due to the calcium nitrate solution), the reaction extent x is computed as follows:

3.9x10^{-11}=(0.01+x)(2*x)^2\\\\x=0.0000312M

Thus, the molar solubility equals the reaction extent x, therefore:

Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M

Regards.

Question: Draw a valid Lewis structure for the molecule CH3NO in which there are no nonzero formal charges on any of the atoms.
iVinArrow [24]

The mentioned molecule with formula, CH₃NO where no bond is found between N and O can be depicted as formamide is shown in the attachment below.  

The formal charges = Number of valence electrons for the atom (V) - the number of electrons in lone pairs (N) - 1/2 (number of electrons in bond pairs, B)

FC = V - N - B/2

Thus, there is a need to calculate valence electrons, electrons in lone pairs, and the number of electrons in bond pairs for each atom in the mentioned molecule.  

V or valence electrons on C = 4e, on H = 1e, on N = 5e, and on O = 6e.  

N or electrons in lone pairs on C = 0e, on H = 0e, on N = 2e, and on O = 4e.  

B or number of electrons in bond pairs for C = 8e, for H = 2e, for N = 6e, and for O = 4e.  

Thus, the formal charges for each will be,  

C = 4 - 0 - (8/2) = 0

H = 1 - 0 - (2/2) = 0

N = 5 - 2 - (6/2) = 0

O = 6 - 4 - (4/2) = 0

Lewis dot structure for the given molecule is given in the attachment below:

Sulfur dioxide and oxygen react to form sulfur trioxide during one of the key steps in sulfuric acid synthesis. An industrial ch
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

kp= 3.1 x 10^(-2)

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to write down the reaction and use the ICE table for pressures:

                                2SO2      +        O2         ⇄              2SO3

Initial                      3.4 atm           1.3 atm                         0 atm

Change                    -2x                    - x                                + 2x

Equilibrium            3.4 - 2x            1.3 -x                          0.52 atm

In order to know the x value:

2x = 0.52

x=(0.52)/2= 0.26

                               2SO2             +          O2              ⇄              2SO3

Equilibrium        3.4 - 0.52                1.3 - 0.26                     0.52 atm

Equilibrium        2.88 atm                 1.04 atm                      0.52 atm

with the partial pressure in the equilibrium, we can obtain Kp.

Kp=\frac{PSO3^2}{PSO2^2 PO2}=\frac{(0.52)^2}{(2.88)^2(1.04)}=0.03135
