What is the theoretical yield of fluorenone if you oxidize 175 mg of fluorene?

Answer:

602 mg of CO₂ and 94.8 mg of H₂O

Explanation:

The yield is measured by the amount of each product produced by the reaction.

The chemical formula of fluorene is C₁₃H₁₀, and its molar mass is 166.223 g/mol.

The oxidation, also know as combustion, of this hydrocarbon is represented by the following balanced chemical equation:

$2C_{13}H_{10}+31O_2\rightarrow 26CO_2+10H_2O$

To calculate the yield follow these steps:

1. Mole ratio

$2molC_{13}H_{10}:31molO_2:26molCO_2:10molH_2O$

2. Convert 175mg of fluorene to number of moles

$175mg/times 1g/1,000mg=0.175g$

Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

$\text{number of moles}=0.175g/166.223g/mol=0.0010528mol$

3. Set a proportion for each product of the reaction

a) For CO₂

i) number of moles

$2molC_{10}H_{13}/26molCO_2=0.0010528molC_{10}H{13}/x$

$x=0.0010528molC_{10}H_{13}\times 26molCO_2/2molC_{10}H_{13}=0.013686molCO_2$

ii) mass in grams

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01g/mol

mass = number of moles × molar mass

mass = 0.013686 moles × 44.01 g/mol = 0.602 g = 602mg

b) For H₂O

i) number of moles

$0.0010528molC_{10}H_{13}\times10molH_2O/2molC_{10}H_{13}=0.00526molH_2O$

ii) mass in grams

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.015g/mol

mass = number of moles × molar mass

mass = 0.00526 moles × 18.015 g/mol = 0.0948mg = 94.8 mg

What is the mass of 7.675 x 1023 atoms C? Answer in units of g.

nalin [4]

Answer: 15.3 grams C

Explanation: 1 mole is 6.02x10^23 atoms. We can find the moles of C in 7.675 x 10^23 atoms of C by dividing:

(7.675 x 10^23 atoms C)/(6.02x10^23 atoms C/mole) = 1.275 moles C

The molar mass of carbon is 12g/mole. So the mass of 7.675 x 10^23 atoms is (1.275 moles C)*(12 g/mole C) = 15.3 grams.

How many water molecules are created when 32 grams of oxygen react completely with 4.0 grams of hydrogen?

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

d. 1.2 × 1024

Explanation:

From the equation of reaction

2H2 + O2= 2H2O

i.e 2mole(4g) of hydrogen requires 1 mole(32g) of oxygen to produce 2mole (2×6.02×10^23 molecules) of H2O= 1.2×20^24 molcules of water.

NB: 1 mole of H2O contains 6.02×10^23 molecules of H2O

What is the binding energy of a nucleus that has a mass defect of 5.81*10-^29 kg

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Choice A: Approximately $5.23 \times 10^{-29}$ joules.

Explanation:

Apply the famous mass-energy equivalence equation to find the energy that correspond to the $\rm 5.81\times 10^{-29}$ kilograms of mass.

$E = m \cdot c^{2}$ ,

where

$E$ stands for energy,
$m$ stands for mass, and
$c$ is the speed of light in vacuum.

The speed of light in vacuum is a constant. However, finding the right units for this value can simplify the calculations a lot. What should be the unit of $c$ ?

The mass given is in the appropriate SI unit:

Mass is in kilograms.

Thus, proceed with the speed of light in SI units. The SI unit for speed is meters per second. For the speed of light, $c \approx \rm 3.00\times 10^{8}\;m\cdot s^{-1}$ .

Apply the mass-energy equivalence:

$\begin{aligned} E &= m \cdot c^{2} \\ &= \rm 5.81\times 10^{-29}\; kg \times {\left(3.00\times 10^{8}\; m\cdot s^{-1}\right)}^{2}\\ &\approx \rm 5.23\times 10^{-12}\;kg\cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-2} \end{aligned}$ .

The unit of energy is not in joules. Don't be alerted. Consider the definition of a joule of energy. One joule is the work done on an object when a force of one newton acts on the object in the direction of the force through the distance of one meter. (English Wikipedia.)

$\rm 1\; J = 1\; N \times 1\; m$ .

However, a force of one newton is defined as the force required to accelerated an object with a mass of one kilogram (not gram) at a rate of one meter per second squared. (English Wikipedia.)

$\begin{aligned}\rm 1\; J &= \rm 1\; N \times 1\; m\\ & = \rm \left(1\; kg\times 1\; m\cdot s^{-2}\right)\times 1\; m\\ &= \rm 1\; kg \cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-2}\end{aligned}$ .

In other words, the mass defect here is also $\rm 5.23\times 10^{-12}\; J$ .
