Answer:

b) 49.48% C, 5.19% H, 28.85% N, and 16.48% O

Explanation:

we find the mass for each element in one mole by multiplying the number of atoms in one molecule with the atomic mass

mC=8Ac=8*12=96g

mH=10AH=10*1=10g

mN=4AN=4*14=56g

mO=2AO=2*16=32g

by adding the masses together we find the molar mass of the molecule

M=mC+nH+mN+mO=96+10+56+32=194g/mole

we apply the rule of threes to find the percentage of each element

194g..96gC..10gH...56gN....32gO

100g....a...........b...........c.............d

a=(100*96)/194=49.48%C

b=(100*10)/194=5.19%H

c=(100*56)/194=28.85%N

d=(100*32)/194=16.48%O

A 0.1 gram sample of an unknown liquid is vaporized completely at 70 degrees C to fill a 750mL flask. The pressure is 0.05951atm
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The molar mass of the liquid 62.89 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample = 0.1 grams

Temperature = 70°C

Volume = 750 mL

Pressure = 0.05951 atm

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles

p*V = n*R*T

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

⇒ with n = the number of moles gas = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with p = The pressure = 0.05951 atm

⇒ with V = The volume of the flask = 750 mL = 0.750 L

⇒ with R = The gasconstant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒with T = the temperature = 70 °C = 343 Kelvin

n = (0.05951 *0.750)/(0.08206*343)

n = 0.00159 moles

Step 3: Calculate molar mass

Molar mass = mass / moles

Molar mass =0.1 gram /  0.00159 moles

Molar mass = 62.89 g/mol

The molar mass of the liquid 62.89 g/mol

Answer questions a-c about the Bronsted acid-base reaction below using the identifying letters A-D below each structure. The pKa
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

a  H2CO3 b HCO3- and c H+ and HCO3-

Explanation:

As the pKa value of phenol is more than that of carbonic acid(H2CO3), the carbonic acid will have high Ka value than that of phenol.

  The acid that contain high Ka value act as stong acid.From that point of view H2CO3 is a strong acid than phenol as the Ka value of carbonic acid is greater than that of phenol.

  The conjugate base of H2CO3 is bicarbonate ion(HCO3-)

c The species that predorminates at equilibrium are H+ and HCO3-

Please help with 14-16 <br> Thank you!
Natalka [10]
I don't know about 14, but 15 is (4), because a liquid draws in heat to turn into a gas. 16 is (2), because to turn into a cold solid, something has to release heat.

Use IUPAC rules to name this compound. A) nitrogen iodide B) nitrogen triiodide C) mononitrogen iodide D) mononitrogen triiodide
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Name of the compound is Nitrogen triiodide.

Explanation:

According to the IUPAC rules, to naming of the compound the following formula can be applied.

Prefix + Name of first element + Base name element of second element + Suffix.

The given compound - NI_{3}

Name of first element- Nitrogen

Base name element of second element - Iodine

Suffix = 3 = tri

Here, iodine is in ionic form therefore, it becomes iodide. and then suffix will be added in front of the halogen.

Therefore, name of the compound will be  Nitrogen triiodide..
