Nitella [24]

Answer:

11.6mL of the 0.1400M NaOH solution

Explanation:

<em>0.154g of chloroacetic acid diluted to 250mL. Titrated wit 0.1400M NaOH solution.</em>

<em />

The reaction of chloroacetic acid, ClCH₂COOH (Molar mass: 94.5g/mol) with NaOH is:

ClCH₂COOH + NaOH → ClCH₂COO⁻ + Na⁺ + H₂O

<em>Where 1 mole of the acid reacts per mole of the base.</em>

<em />

That means the student will reach equivalence point when moles of chloroacetic acid = moles NaOH.

You will titrate the 0.154g of ClCH₂COOH. In moles (Using molar mass) are:

0.154g ₓ (1mol / 94.5g) = <em>1.63x10⁻³ moles of ClCH₂COOH</em>

To reach equivalence point, the student must add 1.63x10⁻³ moles of NaOH. These moles comes from:

1.63x10⁻³ moles of NaOH ₓ (1L / 0.1400moles NaOH) = 0.0116L of the 0.1400M NaOH =

Fudgin [204]

Answer: N = 2.78 × 10^23 atoms

There are N = 2.78 × 10^23 atoms in 70g of Au2cl6

Completed Question:

Calculate the number of gold atoms in a 70g sample of gold(III) chloride . Be sure your answer has a unit symbol if necessary, and round it to significant digits

Explanation:

Given:

Molar mass of Au2cl6 = 303.33g/mol

Mass of Au2cl6 = 70g

Number of moles of Au2cl6 = 70g/303.33g/mol = 0.231mol

According to the chemical formula of Au2cl6,

1 mole of Au2cl6 contains 2 moles of Au

Number of moles of Au = 2 × 0.231mol = 0.462mole

There are 6.022 × 10^23 atoms in 1 mole of an element.

Number of Atom of gold in 0.462 mole of gold is:

N = 0.462 mol × 6.022 × 10^23 atoms/mol

N = 2.78 × 10^23 atoms

PLEASE HELP!?!.!,! What are the products of the combustion of a hydrocarbon?
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

carbon dioxide and water

Explanation:

Example: Combustion of Methane (CH₄(g))

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) => CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)**

____________________

Note: The combustion of any hydrocarbon produces CO₂ & H₂O. That is,

Ethane (C₂H₆) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Propane (C₃H₈) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Butane (C₄H₁₀) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

The issue remaining is to balance the reaction equation. For these type equation balance Carbon 1st, then Hydrogen and finish with Oxygen. Balancing in this order leaves Oxygen which can be balanced using fractions. If problem requires lowest whole number ratios of elements, simply multiply entire equation by 2 to get standard equation*

______________________

*Standard Equation is defined as the smallest whole number ratios of elements. The 'standard equation' is significant in that it is assumed to be at STP conditions; i.e., 0⁰C (=273K) & 1.0 Atmosphere pressure.

  • Ethane (C₂H₆) + 7/2O₂(g) => 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)

    => 2C₂H₆ + 7O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)  <= Standard Form of Rxn

  • Propane (C₃H₈) + 5O₂(g) => 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn (no need to balance with the '2' multiple)
  • Butane (C₄H₁₀) + 13/2O₂ => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g)

    => 2C₃H₈ + 13O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn

______________________

**Also, note that water, H₂O(g), is listed as a gas. In some cases it will be listed as a liquid, H₂O(l).
