An unknown compound was found to be soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid; however, the 2,4-DNP, chromic acid, and potassium per

manganate gave negative results. The only positive result detected was the ferrous hydroxide test. What is the most likely functional group present in such compound

Alecsey [184]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

2,4-DNP is negative: aldehyde and ketone absent

Chromic acid is negative: alcohol absent.

KMnO4 test negative: alkene absent

The only positive result is for Fe(OH)2.

Nitro group-containing compounds react with ferrous hydroxide to give amine and ferric hydroxide red ppt. Hence given compound contains the nitro group (-NO2).

antimony(III) sulfide is reacted with excess iron. if 175.6 grams of pure antimony is produced what mass of antimony sulfide was
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: -

The chemical formula of Antimony(III) sulfide = Sb₂S₃

Mass of Sb produced = 175.6 g

Molar mass of Sb = 121.76 g /mol

Number of moles of Sb = 175.6g / (121.76 g/mol)

= 1.44 mol

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

Sb₂S₃ + 3 Fe → 2 Sb + 3 FeS

From the chemical equation we see

2 mol of Sb is produced from 1 mol of Sb₂S₃

1.44 mol of Sb is produced from \frac{1 mol Sb2S3 x 1.44 mol Sb}{2 mol of Sb}

= 0.72 mol of Sb₂S₃

Molar mass of Sb₂S₃ = 2 x 121.76 + 32.06 x 3

= 339.7 g / mol

Mass of Sb₂S₃ = 0.72 mol x 339.7 g/ mol

= 244.58 g

= 244.6 g rounded off to 4 significant figures.

toms of elements at the top of a group on the periodic table are smaller than the atoms of elements at the bottom of the group.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Atoms of elements at the top of a group on the periodic table are smaller than the atoms of elements at the bottom of the group. ... The valence electrons of the larger atoms are farther from the nucleus and are easier to remove, so the metals near the bottom are more reactive than those at the top.

Elias stretches a rubber band and lets it go. The rubber band flies across the room. Elias says this demonstrates the transforma
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

No, he is not.

Explanation:

When he let the rubber band go, the band compresses, so there's elastic potential energy in it, which will be transformed into kinetic energy when it gains velocity and flies across the room.

Then, Elias had inverted the concepts: the experiment demonstrates the transformation of elastic potential energy to kinetic energy.
