Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements on this planet. Our atmosphere is 21% free elemental oxygen. Oxygen is also extensively combined in compounds in the earths crust, such as water (89%) and in mineral oxides. Even the human body is 65% oxygen by mass.

Free elemental oxygen occurs naturally as a gas in the form of diatomic molecules, O2 (g). Oxygen exhibits many unique physical and chemical properties. For example, oxygen is a colorless and odorless gas, with a density greater than that of air, and a very low solubility in water. In fact, the latter two properties greatly facilitate the collection of oxygen in this lab. Among the unique chemical properties of oxygen are its ability to support respiration in plants and animals, and its ability to support combustion.

In this lab, oxygen will be generated as a product of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. A catalyst is used to speed up the rate of the decomposition reaction, which would otherwise be too slow to use as a source of oxygen. The catalyst does not get consumed by the reaction, and can be collected for re-use once the reaction is complete. The particular catalyst used in this lab is manganese(IV) oxide.

A gas has a pressure of 5.7 atm at 100.0°C. What is its pressure at20.0°C (Assume volume is unchanged)

son4ous [18]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{4.5 atm}}$

Explanation:

The volume and amount of gas are constant, so we can use Gay-Lussac’s Law:

At constant volume, the pressure exerted by a gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

$\dfrac{p_{1}}{T_{1}} = \dfrac{p_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Data:

p₁ =5.7 atm; T₁ = 100.0 °C

p₂ = ?; T₂ = 20.0 °C

Calculations:

1. Convert the temperatures to kelvins

T₁ = (100.0 + 273.15) K = 373.15

T₂ = (20.0 + 273.15) K = 293.15

2. Calculate the new pressure

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{5.7}{373.15} & = & \dfrac{p_{2}}{293.15}\\\\0.0153 & = & \dfrac{p_{2}}{293.15}\\\\0.0153\times 293.15 &=&p_{2}\\p_{2} & = & \textbf{4.5 atm}\end{array}\\\text{The new pressure will be $\large \boxed{\textbf{4.5 atm}}$}$

An analytical chemist is titrating of a solution of nitrous acid with a solution of . The of nitrous acid is . Calculate the pH

Burka [1]

Answer:

pH = 2.69

Explanation:

The complete question is:<em> An analytical chemist is titrating 182.2 mL of a 1.200 M solution of nitrous acid (HNO2) with a solution of 0.8400 M KOH. The pKa of nitrous acid is 3.35. Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 46.44 mL of the KOH solution to it.</em>

<em />

The reaction of HNO₂ with KOH is:

HNO₂ + KOH → NO₂⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

Moles of HNO₂ and KOH that react are:

HNO₂ = 0.1822L × (1.200mol / L) = <em>0.21864 moles HNO₂</em>

KOH = 0.04644L × (0.8400mol / L) = <em>0.0390 moles KOH</em>

That means after the reaction, moles of HNO₂ and NO₂⁻ after the reaction are:

NO₂⁻ = 0.03900 moles KOH = moles NO₂⁻

HNO₂ = 0.21864 moles HNO₂ - 0.03900 moles = 0.17964 moles HNO₂

It is possible to find the pH of this buffer (<em>Mixture of a weak acid, HNO₂ with the conjugate base, NO₂⁻), </em>using H-H equation for this system:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

pH = 3.35 + log₁₀ [0.03900mol] / [0.17964mol]

Products: 1-methylcyclohexene, 3-methylcyclohexene, methylenecyclohexane

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reaction that we are considering here is quite a knotty reaction. It is difficult to decide if the mechanism is actually E1 or E2 since both are equally probable based on the mass of scientific evidence regarding this reaction. However, we can easily assume that the methylenecyclohexane was formed by an E1 mechanism.

Looking at the products, one could convincingly assert that the reaction leading to the formation of the two main products proceeds via an E1 mechanism with the formation of a carbocation intermediate as has been shown in mechanism attached to this answer. Possible rearrangement of the carbocation yields the 3-methylcyclohexene product.
