You perform a distillation to separate a mixture of propylbenzene and cyclohexane, and you obtain 2.9949 grams of cyclohexane (d

ensity -0.779 g/mL, MW - 84.16 g/mol) and 1.6575 grams of propylbenzene (density = 0.862 g/mL, MW = 120.2 g/mol). What is the volume percent composition of cyclohexane in the mixture?

Answer:

66.67%

Explanation:

From the given information:

mass of cyclohexane = 2.9949 grams

density of cyclohexane = 0.779 g/mL

Recall that:

Density = mass/volume

∴

Volume = mass/density

So, the volume of cyclohexane = 2.9949 g/ 0.779 g/mL

= 3.8445 mL

Also,

mass of propylbenzene = 1.6575 grams

density of propylbenzene = 0.862 g/mL

Volume of propylbenzene =  1.6575 g/ 0.862 g/mL

= 1.9229 mL

The volume % composition of cyclohexane from the mixture is:

= (\dfrac{v_{cyclohexane}}{v_{cyclohexane}+v_{propylbenzene}})\times 100

= (\dfrac{3.8445}{3.8445+1.9229})\times 100

= (\dfrac{3.8445}{5.7674})\times 100

= 66.67%

What is the pH of 15 mL of .2 M HCl
fenix001 [56]
Easy peasy! All we need to do is plug this formula into our calculator:

-log(M)

So, we'd plug in -log(.2), which is 0.7 :)

Zinc metal (Zn) will react with aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCI aq) to produce aqueous zinc chloride (ZnCl2 aq) and hydrogen gas
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the equation of the reaction between Hydrochloric acid and Zinc metal

Zinc metal displaces the hydrogen from hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride

We have the equation of reaction as:

2HCl_{(aq)}\text{ + Zn}_{(s)}\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ ZnCl}_{2(aq)}\text{ + H}_{2(g)}
