In the equation

What volume of oxygen in liters at STP wpuld be required for the combustion of 17.0 grams PH3?

Lynna [10]

First, we need to state the chemical equation for the combustion of PH3

$4PH3\text{ + 8O2 }\to\text{ P4O10 }+6H2O$

And the mass of PH3 is 17.0 grams and we need to know the moles.

In the periodic table, the atomic mass of the P (phosphorus) is 31 and the atomic mass of the H (hydrogen) is 1.

So, you sum the mass of P to the mass of H multiplied by 3 and you obtain this:

$\text{mole}cu\text{lar weight of PH3=31}\cdot1+1\cdot3=34\text{ g PH3/mol}$

With this data, we can search the moles of PH3:

What is the empirical formula of a compound containing 90 grams carbon, 11 grams hydrogen, and 35 grams nitrogen? A. C3H4N B. C2

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

A. C₃H₄N

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of C, H, and N using the relation:

<em>no. of moles = mass/molar mass.</em>

∴ no. of moles of C = mass/molar mass = (90.0 g)/(12.0 g/mol) = 7.5 mol.

∴ no. of moles of H = mass/molar mass = (11.0 g)/(1.0 g/mol) = 11.0 mol.

∴ no. of moles of N = mass/molar mass = (35.0 g)/(14.0 g/mol) = 2.5 mol.

We should get the mole ratio of each atom by dividing by the lowest no. of moles (2.5 mol of N).

∴ the mole ratio of C: H: N = (7.5 mol/2.5 mol): (11.0 mol/2.5 mol): (2.5 mol/2.5 mol) = (3: 4.4: 1) ≅ (3: 4: 1).

So, the empirical formula is: A. C₃H₄N.

What functional feature(s) does the phosphate group contribute to the structure of a phospholipid? select all that apply. select

bezimeni [28]

A phospholipid structure is shown in the picture attached. It has three parts: the hydrophobic tail, the hydrophilic head and the phosphate group in the center. Thus, the function of the phosphate group is to link the hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts of a phospholipid. Specifically, the phosphate group is part of the hydrophilic head. So, it is used to connect the phospholipids to polar compounds.

Although both N2 and 02 are naturally present in the air we breathe, high levels of NO and NO2 in the atmosphere occur mainly in

joja [24]

Answer:

(a) Increasing the temperature adds heat which is a reactant shifting the equilibrium rightwards.

(b) Pressure has no effect since the change in the number of moles is zero.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, one could represent the given reaction as:

$N_2(g)+O_2(g)+ \Delta _rH \leftrightarrow 2NO$

Since it is endothermic. Thus, solving the (a) statement, one identifies the heat as a reagent, that is why the reaction cools down as it progress, therefore, by increasing the temperature, heat is added, that is, a reagent is added, which shifts the equilibrium rightwards, in other words, more NO is produced so its concentration increases.

Furthermore, for the (b) statement, since the change in the number of moles is zero, based on the stoichiometric coefficients as shown below:

$\Delta \nu =2-1-1=0$

Such value implies that the pressure has no effect on the concentration, taking into account the following form of the law of mass action:

$Kp=Kc(RT)^{\Delta \nu }$

Thus, since $\Delta \nu =0$ , $Kp=Kc$ , so no effect in concentration is due to the pressure.

Best regards.

How many molecules are in a 2.1 mol of H2O? *

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The mole is the SI unit for amount of a substance.

Explanation:

Just like the dozen and the gross, it is a name that stands for a number. There are therefore 6.02 × 10 23 water molecules in a mole of water molecules.
