You want to recrystallize the product from a nucleophilic substitution reaction. After adding a minimal amount of hot 95% ethano

l to dissolve all the crystals and letting the flask cool to room temperature crystals do not form. To induce crystallization and maximize the % recovery, one should:_______.
A) Boil off some solvent
B) Scratch the flask
C) Add a seed crystal
D) Cool the flask in an ice bath
E) Any of the above

Answer:

B) Scratch the flask

C) Add a seed crystal

Explanation:

Two important methods to induce crystallization in this case are;

1) Scratch the flask

2) Add a seed crystal

However, the rate of crystallization becomes slower at lower temperature hence cooling in an ice bath should only be applied before the crystals form. When the crystals start forming, the system should be maintained at room temperature.

The question clearly stated that a minimal amount of hot 95% ethanol was added to dissolve all the crystals hence you do not need to boil off some solvent. Boiling off solvent is applied when too much solvent is used.

A sample of SO2 gas occupies 45.6 L at 373 K and 3.45 atm. This sample contains how many moles of oxygen atoms?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

10.28 mol

Explanation:

S + 2O = SO2

(atm x L) ÷ (0.0821 x K)

(3.45 x 45.6) ÷ (0.0821 x 373)

=5.13726

Then round it to significant figures

=5.14

5.14 mol SO2 x (2 mol O ÷ 1 mol SO2)

=10.28 mol O

List the protons, neutrons, and electrons for Ge2+<br> Please hurry
Nady [450]

Answer:

32, 30 and 41

Explanation:

The problem here is to find the number of:

    Protons, neutrons and electrons in Ge²⁺

In this ion,

   We must understand that for a net positive charge to remain on an atom, the number of protons must be greater than the number of electrons.

Ge is Germanium with atomic number of 32;

So the number of protons is 32

Since the atom has lost two electrons;

  Number of electrons now is 32  - 2 = 30

Number of neutrons is 41 from the periodic table.

How much heat, in joules, must be added to a 75.0-g iron block with a specific heat of 0.449 J/g °C to increase its temperature
svp [43]

Answer:

50,849.25 Joules

Explanation:

The amount of heat, Q, required to raise the temperature of a body with mass, m, and specific heat capacity, c is given by:

Q = mcΔT, where ΔT represents the change in temperature.

In the case of the iron block:

m = 75 g

c = 0.449 J/g °C

ΔT = 1535 - 25 = 1510 °C

Therefore,

Q = 75 g x 0.449 J/g °C x 1510 °C

     = 50,849.25 Joules

<em>Hence, </em><em>50,849.25 Joules </em><em> of heat must be added to  a 75.0-g iron block with a specific heat of 0.449 J/g °C to increase its temperature from 25 °C to its melting temperature of 1535 °C</em>
