A large number in front of a compound designates how many units there are of that compound. Parentheses can be used to designate a special structure, where other molecules are attached to the larger, complex molecule.

What total volume of ozone measured at a pressure of 24.5 mmHg and a temperature of 232 K can be destroyed when all of the chlor
ddd [48]

Answer:

1.75272\ \text{m}^3

Explanation:

The breakdown reaction of ozone is as follows

CF_3Cl + UV \rightarrow CF_3 + Cl

Cl + O_3 \rightarrow ClO + O_2

O_3 + UV \rightarrow O_2 + O

ClO + O \rightarrow Cl + O_2

It can be seen that 2 moles of ozone is required in the complete cycle

So for 10 cycles, 20 moles of ozone is required

m = Mass of CF_3Cl = 15.5 g

M = Molar mass of CF_3Cl = 104.46 g/mol

P = Pressure = 24.5 mmHg

T = Temperature = 232 K

R = Gas constant = 62.363\ \text{L mmHg/K mol}

Number of moles is given by

n=\dfrac{m}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{15.5}{104.46}\\\Rightarrow n=0.1484\ \text{moles}

20\ \text{moles} = 20\times 0.1484 = 2.968\ \text{moles}

From ideal gas law we have

PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{2.968\times 62.363\times 232}{24.5}\\\Rightarrow V=1752.72\ \text{L}=1.75272\ \text{m}^3

For 20 cycles of the reaction the volume of the ozone is 1.75272\ \text{m}^3.

A solid yellow stripe is to be painted in the middle of a certain highway. If 1 gallon of paint covers an area of p square feet
Zolol [24]

Answer:

440mt/p gallons

Explanation:

We are told that one gallon of paint covers an area of p square feet. Knowing this then, the question becomes how much paint is needed to cover a stripe that is t inches wide and m miles long.

Let us first use the dimensions of the stripe to find how much area that is in square feet. A stripe is rectangular so we will calculate the area as follows:

Area of stripe = width x length

                       = t inches x m miles              (we need to convert both to feet)

                       = (t inches x 1 ft/12 inches) x (m miles x 5280 ft/1 mi)

                       =440mt square feet

ow we can find out how much paint will be needed by using ratios

p square feet : 1 gallon

440mt square feet : x

x = 440mt/p gallons

Draw the resonance structures for the conjugate base of Phenol (C6H6O). In one sentence, explain why phenol (C6H6O) has a pKa of
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The four resonance structures of the phenoxide ion are shown in the image attached

The conjugate base of cyclohexanol has only one resonance contributor, while

the conjugate base of phenol has four resonance contributors.

Explanation:

In organic chemistry, it is known that structures are more stable if they possess more resonance contributors. The greater the number of contributing canonical structures, the more stable the organic specie. Since the phenoxide ion has four contributing canonical structures, it is quite much more stable than cyclohexanol having only one contributing structure to its conjugate base. Hence the PKa(acid dissociation constant) of phenol is lesser than that of cyclohexanol. The conjugate base of phenol is stabilized by resonance.

Cacodyl, which has an intolerable garlicky odor and is used in the manufacture of cacodylic acid, a cotton herbicide, has a mass
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The molecular formula of cacodyl is C₄H₁₂As₂.

Explanation:

<u>Let's assume we have 1 mol of cacodyl</u>, in that case we'd have 209.96 g of cacodyl and the<u> following masses of its components</u>:

  • 209.96 g * 22.88/100 = 48.04 g C
  • 209.96 g * 5.76/100 = 12.09 g H
  • 209.96 g * 71.36/100 = 149.83 g As

Now we convert those masses into moles:

  • 48.04 g C ÷ 12 g/mol = 4.00 mol C
  • 12.09 g H ÷ 1 g/mol = 12.09 mol H
  • 149.83 g As ÷ 74.92 g/mol = 2.00 mol As

Those amounts of moles represent the amount of each component in 1 mol of cacodyl, thus, the molecular formula of cacodyl is C₄H₁₂As₂.
