To determine the fraction of carbon in morphine, we need to know the chemical formula of morphine. From my readings, the chemical formula would be <span>C17H19NO<span>3. We assume we have 1 g of this substance. Using the molar mass, we can calculate for the moles of morphine. Then, from the formula we relate the amount of carbon in every mole of morphine. Lastly, we multiply the molar mass of carbon to obtain the mass of carbon. We calculate as follows:
1 g </span></span> <span>C17H19NO<span>3 ( 1 mol / 285.34 g ) ( 17 mol C / 1 mol </span></span> <span>C17H19NO3</span>) ( 12.01 g C / 1 mol C) = 0.7155 g C
Fraction of carbon = 0.7155 g C / 1 g <span>C17H19NO<span>3 = 0.7155</span></span>
Answer:
the number off double bonds in a fatty acid chain
Capture all of the smoke and weight it. it will weigh exactly the same before and after you burn it but will just be CO2 and H2O gas.
Answer: Thomson
Explanation: It verified J. J. Thomson's work on the atomic structure.
Answer:
C. Gain in electron(s) resulting in a decrease of oxidation number.
Explanation:
Redox reactions are reactions involving transfer of of electron between two species (reduction specie) and (oxidation species) and change resulting in change in oxidation number.
Reduction in terms of redox reaction is the specie that accepts electron(s) and gets "reduced" since its oxidation state has been reduced.
For example
Cl + e- → Cl⁻
The above reaction is an example of reduction reaction taking place in a redox reaction. We can see that Chlorine oxidation state was changed from (0) to (-1) state.
