A 1.250-g sample of benzoic acid, C7H6O2, was placed in a combustion bomb. The bomb was filled with an excess of oxygen at high

pressure, sealed, and immersed in a pail of water which served as a calorimeter. The heat capacity of the entire apparatus (bomb, pail, thermometer, and water) was found to be 10.134 kJ/K. The oxidation of the benzoic acid was triggered by passing an electric spark through the sample. After complete combustion, the thermometer immersed in the water registered a temperature 3.256 K greater than before the combustion. What is DEcombustion per mole of benzoic acid burned

Answer:

3224 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The combustion of benzoic acid occurs as follows:

C₇H₆O₂ + 13/2O₂ → 7CO₂ + 3H₂O + dE

The change in temperature in the reaction is the change due the energy released, that is:

3.256K * (10.134kJ / K) = 33.00kJ are released when 1.250g reacts

To find the heat released per mole we have to find the moles of benzoic acid:

<em>Moles benzoic acid -Molar mass: 122.12g/mol-:</em>

1.250g * (1mol / 122.12g) = 0.0102 moles

<em />

The dE combustion per mole of benzoic acid is:

33.00kJ / 0.0102moles =

<em>3224 kJ/mol </em>

Scientist looking for new substances in plants grind up the plants with methanol. This solvent dissolves many plant compounds. H
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Crystals can be made from methanol by recrystallizing the plant extract from methanol.

The methanol/water system is heated rapidly using a hot plate and the plant extract dissolves in the heating solution until a clear solution is obtained.

The solution is now cooled rapidly. The interior of the flask used for the re crystallization may even by scratched to assist the quick formation of crystals. Large crystals of plant compounds may be obtained using this method. This process should be carried out in a fume hood because of the toxicity of methanol.

Using the periodic table, choose the more reactive nonmetal.<br> Br or As
raketka [301]

Reactivity of non-metals depend on their ability to gain electrons. So, smaller is the size of a non-metal more readily it will attract electrons because then nucleus will be more closer to valence shell. ... Hence, Br is the non-metal which will be more reactive than At.

The recommended dose for acetaminophen is 10.0 to 15.0mg/kg of body weight for adults using this guideline calculate the maximum
Oxana [17]

Answer:

1422mg of acetaminophen

Explanation:

The maximum dose of acetaminophen is 15.0 mg of acetaminophen per kg of person.

To know the maximum single dosage of the person we need to convert the 209lb to kg (Using 1kg = 2.2046lb):

209lb * (1kg / 2.2046lb) = 94.8

The person weighs 94.8kg and the maximum single dosage for the person is:

94.8kg * (15.0mg acetaminophen / kg) =

1422mg of acetaminophen

An organic compound is composed of 38.7% C, 9.70% H, 51.6% O. The compound has a molecular formula mass of 62.0g/mol.
Tcecarenko [31]

<span>B)<span>C2H6O<span>2
</span></span></span>
First, convert each percentage to grams: 38.7g, 9.70g, and 51.6g. 
Next, calculate the number of moles of each element, based on the number of grams given.
C = 3.23 mol
H = 8.91 mol
O = 3.23 mol
Set up the ratio of moles of each element:
C3.34H9.70O3.23. Convert the decimals to whole numbers by dividing by the smallest subscript, 3.23.
The empirical formula is CH3O.
Now, compute the formula mass, which is 31. Finally, divide the molecular mass by the formula mass, 62/31 = 2. Multiple the subscripts by 2 to get the molecular formula.
