This is a decarboxylation reaction
CH3COOH+NaOH(CaO)=CH3COONa+Na2CO3

CH3COONa+NaOH(CaO)=CH4+Na2CO3

A compound is found to contain 38.65 % carbon, 16.25 % hydrogen, and 45.09 % nitrogen by mass. what is the empirical formula for
iren [92.7K]

The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

 

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

 

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

 

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

 

So the empirical formula is:

CHN

What are the two types of collisions? What is the difference between them? Types: a. Types: b. Compare and contrast the two type
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The two types of collisions are :

Type a)

<u>Elastic collision</u>

Type b)

<u>Inelastic collision</u>

Explanation:

Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.

During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.

Example :

When boxer hits with punches .

When bat hits the ball in cricket match.

So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is  change in their velocity.

All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.

<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>

a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule

b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.

Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.

Limestone (CaCO3) is decomposed by heating to quicklime (CaO) and carbon dioxide. Calculate how many grams of quicklime can be p
Harman [31]

Answer: 2800 g

Explanation:

CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass = 5 kg = 5000 g

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{5000g}{100g/mol}=50moles

1 mole of CaCO_3 produces = 1 mole of CaO

50 moles of CaCO_3 produces =\frac{1}{1}\times 50=50moles of CaO

Mass of CaO=moles\times {\text{Molar mass}}=50moles\times 56g/mole=2800g

2800 g of CaO is produced from 5.0 kg of limestone.
