Cinnamon owes its flavor and odor to cinnamaldehyde (C9H8O). Determine the boiling point elevation of a solution of 92.7 mg of c
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The boiling point elevation is 3.53 °C

Explanation:

∆Tb = Kb × m

∆Tb is the boiling point elevation of the solution

Kb is the molal boiling point elevation constant of CCl4 = 5.03 °C/m

m is the molality of the solution is given by moles of solute (C9H8O) divided by mass of solvent (CCl4) in kilogram

Moles of solute = mass/MW =

mass = 92.7 mg = 92.7/1000 = 0.0927 g

MW = 132 g/mol

Moles of solute = 0.0927/132 = 7.02×10^-4 mol

Mass of solvent = 1 g = 1/1000 = 0.001 kg

m = 7.02×10^-4 mol ÷ 0.001 kg = 0.702 mol/kg

∆Tb = 5.03 × 0.702 = 3.53 °C (to 2 decimal places)

An atom of oxygen (atomic number 8) has a mass number of 17. How many neutrons are<br> in that atom?
ludmilkaskok [199]
<h2>Answer:  # of neutrons = 9</h2>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

# of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

                      = 17 - 8

                      = 9

<h3>∴ number of neutrons in an atom of oxygen of mass number 17, is 9.</h3>

6. The fusion of 4 H-1 nuclei to produce two positrons and one other nuclei.​
KIM [24]

Explanation:

Normally, fusion involves two heavy hydrogen nuclides but since we have 4 light hydrogen nuclides, two of which underwent positron emission, thus changing two protons into neutrons plus 2 positrons and 2 neutrinos. The resulting nucleus from this fusion reaction is an He-4 nucleus.

An ordered list of chemical substances is shown.
alina1380 [7]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 2, 4 and 5.

Explanation :

Combustion reaction : It is a type of reaction in which a hydrocarbon react with an oxygen molecule to give carbon dioxide, water as a product.

For example : Methane react with oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

In the given list of chemical substances, CuO,Cu_2O,Li_2O are in oxide form. They can not be both reactant and product of a single combustion reaction.

In the given list, C_2H_5NH_2 is the only hydrocarbon which shows a combustion reaction. That means C_2H_5NH_2 react with O_2 to give CO_2,H_2O and N_2 as a product.

The balanced combustion reaction of C_2H_5NH_2 is,

20C_2H_5NH_2+40O_2\rightarrow 40CO_2+7H_2O+10N_2

Therefore, the correct answer is, (C) 2, 4, and 5.
