Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Palmitic acid is the acid found in animals and plants. It is the saturated acid that contains fats. It is extracted from palm oil and from fat sources like butter, cheese, milk and meat. It is added in milk with low fat content to add Vitamin A in it. The fat content of palmitic acid is very high. excessive consumption of palmitic acid leads to heart diseases and life risks.

Exactly 1.0 mol N2O4 is placed in an empty 1.0-L container and is allowed to reach equilibriumdescribed by the equation N2O4(g)↔

Vilka [71]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 1.1

Solution : Given,

Initial moles of $N_2O_4$ = 1.0 mole

Initial volume of solution = 1.0 L

First we have to calculate the concentration $N_2O_4$ .

$\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{\text{Moles of }N_2O_4}{\text{Volume of solution}}$

$\text{Concentration of }N_2O_4=\frac{1.0moles}{1.0L}=1.0M$

The given equilibrium reaction is,

$N_2O_4(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)$

Initially c 0

At equilibrium $(c-c\alpha)$ $2c\alpha$

The expression of $K_c$ will be,

$K_c=\frac{[NO_2]^2}{[N_2O_4]}$

$K_c=\frac{(2c\alpha)^2}{(c-c\alpha)}$

where,

$\alpha$ = degree of dissociation = 40 % = 0.4

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$K_c=\frac{(2c\alpha)^2}{(c-c\alpha)}$

$K_c=\frac{(2\times 1\times 0.4)^2}{(1-1\times 0.4)}$

$K_c=1.066\aprrox 1.1$

Therefore, the value of equilibrium constant for this reaction is, 1.1

Suppose of copper(II) acetate is dissolved in of a aqueous solution of sodium chromate. Calculate the final molarity of acetate

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

0.0714 M for the given variables

Explanation:

The question is missing some data, but one of the original questions regarding this problem provides the following data:

Mass of copper(II) acetate: $m_{(AcO)_2Cu} = 0.972 g$

Volume of the sodium chromate solution: $V_{Na_2CrO_4} = 150.0 mL$

Molarity of the sodium chromate solution: $c_{Na_2CrO_4} = 0.0400 M$

Now, when copper(II) acetate reacts with sodium chromate, an insoluble copper(II) chromate is formed:

$(CH_3COO)_2Cu (aq) + Na_2CrO_4 (aq)\rightarrow 2 CH_3COONa (aq) + CuCrO_4 (s)$

Find moles of each reactant. or copper(II) acetate, divide its mass by the molar mass:

$n_{(AcO)_2Cu} = \frac{0.972 g}{181.63 g/mol} = 0.0053515 mol$

Moles of the sodium chromate solution would be found by multiplying its volume by molarity:

$n_{Na_2CrO_4} = 0.0400 M\cdot 0.1500 L = 0.00600 mol$

Find the limiting reactant. Notice that stoichiometry of this reaction is 1 : 1, so we can compare moles directly. Moles of copper(II) acetate are lower than moles of sodium chromate, so copper(II) acetate is our limiting reactant.

Write the net ionic equation for this reaction:

$Cu^{2+} (aq) + CrO_4^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow CuCrO_4 (s)$

Notice that acetate is the ion spectator. This means it doesn't react, its moles throughout reaction stay the same. We started with:

$n_{(AcO)_2Cu} = 0.0053515 mol$

According to stoichiometry, 1 unit of copper(II) acetate has 2 units of acetate, so moles of acetate are equal to:

$n_{AcO^-} = 2\cdot 0.0053515 mol = 0.010703 mol$

The total volume of this solution doesn't change, so dividing moles of acetate by this volume will yield the molarity of acetate:

$c_{AcO^-} = \frac{0.010703 mol}{0.1500 L} = 0.0714 M$

Given the following table, which statement is true about atoms A and B?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The statement true is A. A and B are isotopes of the same element.

Explanation:

Isotopes correspond to atoms of the same element with different mass numbers (A), that is to say they differ in the amount of neutrons in the nucleus. In the case of compound A it has 10 neutrons, and B has 11.
