When formic acid is treated with potassium hydroxide (KOH), an acid-base reaction occurs, forming a carboxylate ion. For the mec

hanism, draw the curved arrows as needed. Include lone pairs and charges in your answer. Do not draw out any hydrogen explicitly in your products.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reaction between formic acid and potassium hydroxide is an acid base reaction.

Remember that an acid base reaction yields salt and water only.

If you look at the curved arrow mechanism shown, you will discover that the hydroxide ion from KOH abstracts a proton from the acid to yield potassium formate and water

uranium hexafluoride is a solid at room temperature, but it boils at \(56^o C\).determine the density of uranium hexafluoride at
PSYCHO15rus [73]
<span>If it is known that at 60 °C and 745 torr UF₆ is present only as a gas then we can make the assumption that:

</span>(n/V) = P/RT = (745 torr)/(62.36 L-torr/mol•K)(337 K) = 0.0354 mol/L 
Therefore the density will be:
<span>
Density = (352.02 g/mol)(0.0354 mol/L)/(1000 cm³/L) = 0.0125 g/cm³

Food dye allergies have increased in recent years. One study calculated that each 47.9 g serving of M&amp;M's candy contains 240
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Mass percent of food dyes  = 0.0616%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of candy = 47.9 g

Calories = 240

Mass of fat = 10 g

Mass of carbohydrate = 34 g

Mass of protein = 2 g

Mass of food dyes = 29.5 mg

Mass percent of food dyes = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the mg into g.

Mass of food dyes = 29.5 mg × 1g /1000 mg = 0.0295 g

Mass percent of food dyes  = mass of food dyes / total mass× 100

Now we will put the values.

Mass percent of food dyes  = 0.0295 g / 47.9 g × 100

Mass percent of food dyes  =  0.000616 × 100

Mass percent of food dyes  = 0.0616%
