Answer: 16g/mol; O2

Explanation:

The gas has a volume of 2.5L at STP, so the number of moles can be determined as follows.

n=2.5L×1mol/22.4L=0.1116mol

The mass is given to be 3.571g. The molar mass of the unknown gas can be determined by dividing grams by moles.

3.571g/0.1116mol=32.00g/mol

The gas is a homonuclear diatomic gas, so the gas must contain two atoms with a molar mass of 32g/mol/2=16g/mol. This is the molar mass of the element oxygen, so the gas is diatomic oxygen, O2.

1. For a mixture of pure hexane and pure dimethylformamide, the dimethylformamide layer will be found as:______.a. the top layer
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

1.  the bottom layer

2. aqueous HCI

3.  the top layer

4.aqueous NaOH

5. mostly in the diethyl ether layer

Explanation:

Pure dimethylformamide is considerably more polar than hexane hence thee two solutions will form two phases with the pure dimethylformamide as the bottom layer.

If we want to extract aniline from chloroform, HCl must be added in order to give a salt that can be extracted into the aqueous layer.

For a mixture of methylene chloride and diethyl ether, the diethyl ether layer will be found as the top layer since it is considerably less polar than  methylene chloride.

Benzyl alcohol can be extracted from a solution of chloroform by adding NaOH and extracting it into an aqueous layer.

A large partition coefficient for the extraction of naphthalene into diethyl ether from water means that naphthalene will be found mostly in the diethyl ether layer.

The chemical equation for the formation of ammonia is unbalanced.
ratelena [41]
Balance Chemical equation is as follow,

<span>                           3 H</span>₂ <span>(g) + N</span>₂ <span>(g)    </span>→<span>    2 NH</span>₃ <span>(g)

According to balanced equation, 3 Molecules (3 moles) of Hydrogen reacts with 1 Molecule of N</span>₂ to produce 2 moles (2 Molecules) of NH₃.

Result:
          2 Molecules of Ammonia are produced by reacting 3 molecules of Hydrogen and 1 molecule of Nitrogen.
