Zanzabum3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The nitro group is an ambident group and is capable of getting attached to carbon chain through nitrogen. as well as through oxygen (-O - N = O) atom. The compound in which the -NO2 group is linked to the alkyl or aryl group through oxygen atom are called nitrites

Answer:

It can bond through either the N or O atoms  

Explanation:

An ambident ("both teeth") group is a group that can attach to another by either of two atoms.

A nitro group can bond through either N or O.

Organic chemistry

In organic chemistry, this property gives rise to functional group isomers.

For example, we can have either nitromethane (CH₃NO₂, Fig. 1) or methyl nitrite (CH₃ONO, Fig. 2)

Inorganic chemistry

The ambidentate property of the nitro group gives rise to linkage isomers in inorganic coordination complexes.

For example, we can have either a pentachloronitroiron(III) cation (Fig. 3) or a pentachloronitritoiron(III) cation (Fig. 4)

Co2 will dissolve in water if water is saturated with Co2 first then it will absorb some of CO2 it appear as less is absorb that was actually the case . this would make it appear as present of CACO3 is in original sample is lower than it will be too low

If you have 30.O g of hydrogen gas burned in excess oxygen how many moles of water can you make
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

15 moles

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of hydrogen (H₂) = 30.0 g

amount of oxygen (O₂) = excess

moles of water = ?

Solution:

First we look to the reaction in which hydrogen react with oxygen and make (H₂O)

Reaction:

              2H₂  + O₂  -----------> 2H₂O

Now look at the reaction for mole ratio

             2H₂  + O₂  -----------> 2H₂O

             2 mole                       2 mole

So it is 2:2 mole ratio of hydrogen to water

As we Know

molar mass of H₂  = 2(1) = 2 g/mol

molar mass of H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18 g/mol

Now convert moles to gram

                  2H₂         +       O₂        ----------->    2H₂O

          2 mole (2 g/mol)                                 2 mole (18 g/mol)

                    4 g                                                     36 g

So,

we come to know that 4 g of hydrogen gives 36 g of water then how many grams of water will be produce by 30 grams of hydrogen.

Apply unity formula

                       4 g of H₂ ≅ 36 g of H₂O

                        30 g of H₂ ≅ X of H₂O

Do cross multiplication

                  X of H₂O =  30 g x 36 g / 4 g

                  X of H₂O =  270 g

Now convert grams of H₂O into moles

               No. of moles = mass in grams/molar mass

Put values in above formula

               No. of moles = 270 g / 18 (g/mol)

               No. of moles = 15 mol

so 30 gram of hydrogen produce 15 mol of water.
