In a synthesis experiment you obtain a sample of product on which you do a melting point determination and find a melting point

range of 114 to 125 degrees Celsius. The sample is supposed to be acetylsalicyclic acid. What preliminary conclusion(s) can you reach from this one determination

Answer:

The melting point determination may need improvement- it may not have been done properly, and make sure it was repeated at least once.

Explanation:

Given that we know the actual melting point of pure acetylsalicyclic acid to be 135°, it follows that the process followed to obtain the melting point range of 114 to 125 degrees Celsius must be inaccurate.

Therefore, we can conclude that, the melting point determination may need improvement. It may not have been done properly, and we must make sure it is repeated at least once.

Balance the following chemical equation I would give anyone the brainiest for answering.
serg [7]

<u>Answer :</u>

Part 13:

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Cu(NO_3)_2+Na_2SO_4\rightarrow CuSO_4+2NaNO_3

Part 14:

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Cu(NO_3)_2+Na_2C_2O_4\rightarrow CuC_2O_4+2NaNO_3

Part 15:

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Cu(NO_3)_2+2KOH\rightarrow Cu(OH)_2+2KNO_3

<u>Explanation :</u>

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which an individual element of an atom present on reactant side must be equal to product side.

Part 13:

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Cu(NO_3)_2+Na_2SO_4\rightarrow CuSO_4+2NaNO_3

Part 14:

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Cu(NO_3)_2+Na_2C_2O_4\rightarrow CuC_2O_4+2NaNO_3

Part 15:

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Cu(NO_3)_2+2KOH\rightarrow Cu(OH)_2+2KNO_3

A reaction was performed in which 3.6 g 3.6 g of benzoic acid was reacted with excess methanol to make 1.3 g 1.3 g of methyl ben
Anit [1.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For benzoic acid:</u>

Given mass of benzoic acid = 3.6 g

Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of benzoic acid}=\frac{3.6g}{122.12g/mol}=0.0295mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of benzoic acid and methanol is:

\text{Benzoic acid + methanol}\rightarrow \text{methyl benzoate}

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

1 mole of benzoic acid produces 1 mole of methyl benzoate

So, 0.0295 moles of benzoic acid will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0295=0.108 moles of methyl benzoate

  • Now, calculating the mass of methyl benzoate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of methyl benzoate = 136.15 g/mol

Moles of methyl benzoate = 0.0295 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.0295mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}}{136.15g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}=(0.0295mol\times 136.15g/mol)=4.02g

  • To calculate the percentage yield of methyl benzoate, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of methyl benzoate = 1.3 g

Theoretical yield of methyl benzoate = 4.02 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of methyl benzoate}=\frac{1.3g}{4.02g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of methyl benzoate}=32.34\%

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

A sample contains 16 mg of polonium-218. After 12 minutes, the sample will contain 1.0 mg of polonium-218. What is the half life
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Half-life = 3 minutes

Explanation:

Using the radioactive decay equation we can solve for reaction constant, k. And by using:

K = ln2 / Half-life

We can find half-life of polonium-218

Radioactive decay:

Ln[A] = -kt + ln [A]₀

Where:

[A] could be taken as mass of polonium after t time: 1.0mg

k is Reaction constant, our incognite

t are 12 min

[A]₀ initial amount of polonium-218: 16mg

Ln[A] = -kt + ln [A]₀

Ln[1.0mg] = -k*12min + ln [16mg]

-2.7726 = - k*12min

k = 0.231min⁻¹

Half-life = ln 2 / 0.231min⁻¹

<h3>Half-life = 3 minutes</h3>

What volume of water is produced when 38.5 g of ethanol reacts with oxygen at 500°C at 1.75 atm?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

90.99 or 91.0

Explanation:

Using the balanced equation, you convert 38.5g of ethanol to moles of water. From there, you plug the values into the Ideal Gas Equation: PV=nRT.
