1a. A researcher accidentally spilled some sand into his beaker containing crystalline compound X. Knowing what he did about mel

ting points, he was not worried about obtaining the melting point of compound X with a few grains of sand present. Why

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Many organic compounds have low melting points. This is due to the fact that many of these compounds are non polar.

However, compound X is slightly polar but still has a melting point which is far less than that of sand composed of a high melting point inorganic material.

Since sand has a much higher melting point compared to compound X, the researcher need not be worried that sand was spilled into his beaker.

How many liters of hydrogen are required to react completely with 2.4L of oxygen to form water? 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

2.4 mole of oxygen will react with 2.4 moles of hydrogen

Explanation:

As we know

1 liter = 1000 grams

2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O

Weight of H2 molecule = 2.016 g/mol

Weight of water = 18.01 gram /l

2 mole of oxygen react with 2 mole of H2

2.4 mole of oxygen will react with 2.4 moles of hydrogen

1. Analysis of an unknown substance formerly used in rocket fuel reveals a composition of 93.28% nitrogen and 6.72% hydrogen by
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The formula of the compound is:

N2H2

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question:

Nitrogen (N) = 93.28%

Hydrogen (H) = 6.72%

Next, we shall determine the empirical formula for the unknown compound. This is illustrated below:

N = 93.28%

H = 6.72%

Divide by their molar mass

N = 93.28 /14 = 6.663

H = 6.72 /1 = 6.7

Divide by the smallest

N = 6.663 / 6.663 = 1

H = 6.72 /6.663 = 1

Therefore, the empirical formula is NH.

Now, we can obtain the formula of the compound as follow:

The formula of a compound is simply a multiple of the empirical formula.

[NH]n = 30.04

[14 + 1]n = 30.04

15n = 30.04

Divide both side by 15

n = 30.04/15

n = 2

Therefore, the formula of the compound is:

[NH]n => [NH]2 => N2H2
